Lindsey & Otto: Married! - Spanish Monastery - North Miami Beach, FL

Lindsey & Otto's wedding was the first of 2008 and I have been looking forward to it for such a long time, especially since we had so much fun together at their Engagement Session at Vizcaya! Everything about it was just perfect - from the flowers to the cake to the beautiful locations that Lindsey & Otto chose.

To start the day, I met up with Lindsey & her friends as she was getting ready for her big day. She was relaxed and ready to go! I got some fun shots of her makeup and hair being done as well as her gorgeous dress!

Adrian got some awesome photos of the church - First Presbyterian Church of Miami. It's one of the oldest churches in the city and fit perfectly with Lindsey's "vintage Miami" theme!

When we arrived, there was some gorgeous light in the chapel as we waited until it was time for Lindsey to walk down the aisle. Here she is in some of that lovely magical light as it poured in through the beautiful chapel windows.

The ceremony was beautiful! Lindsey and Otto were so happy to finally be married! They are such a cute couple!

An interesting take on the ring shot as we left for the reception - "objects in mirror are closer than they appear!" I love how you can see the sparkle of her diamonds.

This cake was awesome. Cakes by Edda is always a great choice.

Lindsey & Otto had some AMAZING flamenco dancers as part of their entertainment! It was so much fun to watch them.

After the wedding, Lindsey & Otto wanted to have some fun walking around downtown South Beach at the awesome Lincoln Road Mall. We got these amazing shots there. I am so glad they were willing to try something different and hang out with us until 2:30AM to get some beautiful bride & groom portraits!!! I took the first photo, and the cool long exposure at the end is by my talented husband, Adrian.

Adrian and I had so much fun working with you both, Lindsey & Otto. Congratulations on finally becoming husband and wife. You two are such wonderful people, and it is especially great to also call you our friends. I hope you had a fantastic time in New York celebrating the Giants' super bowl win, and I look forward to seeing you again very soon!

Lots of love,
Karen

Congrats on your nuptials. Your photographer has a gifted view through her lens. I think the second to last portrait is the one for wallets.

See you soon
