The Ocean, The Sun, An Engagement: Nathaly + Armando

“The Ocean. The Sun. A Ring. An Engagement.”

Genuine unconditional love does not have a calendar or a due date. It does not wait for us to pencil it into our long-term goals or next month’s to-do list. No, that type of love often swifts into our lives unexpectedly, without planning, text messaging alerts, or notice emails. This love, this love is the best kind!  For a serious business man in Indiana like Armando, unconditional love showed up knocking at his doorstep by the name of Nathaly; A gentle personality with a beautiful smile and an extremely kind heart. She started working for him at his franchise where their connection unfolded into a soft pocket of compromise and understanding. If Armando had looked at his list of goals a year ago, a relationship would be missing from it. He did not plan to fall in love, but Nathaly changed his world.

During their 13 months of bliss, Nathaly expressed the desire for her engagement to be private, intimate, and near or on the ocean. Well, Armando listened, bringing them all the way to Florida. In order to carry out her wishes, he planned a surprise romantic boat ride through Miami’s inter-coastal. This was no easy task, but after a couple of thorough emails between he and I, we both pulled it off. I pretended to be part of the deck crew, even helped our Captain Antonio with some small tasks as to play the part. So funny!

Hidden from them to keep their privacy alive, I engulfed their subtle gestures and sweet delights. She had no idea I was their photographer and Armando pretended he did not know me. There sitting under the sails with the wind caressing them and the sun shinning, Armando took off his sunglasses (our secret cue) got down on one knee and well you know, the rest is history.

I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this adventure with Nathaly and Armando. I met Olga (their friend) at a concert, who two years later brought all of us together for this very precious moment. Who would of thought? Nathaly and Armando, they are more than clients, I consider them my friends. So listen up: be open to meeting people anywhere. Yes take me on a boat or have me climb mountains, as long as it means capturing the essence of your moment. Let’s always go on an adventure!
