Following Missy & Karr’s intimate Indian wedding they had a fabulous ceremony at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church in Miami Beach officiated by Monsignor Tomas Marin followed by an all night party at the Gansevoort Hotel South. Each detail was maticuliously tended to by Melissa Barbier from Luxurious Events. Missy was raised in the mid-west and Karr is a Miami native but life would have them meeting half a world away in India. Surounded by friends and family from around the world these two had a dream wedding! Enjoy.

Kiva - Loans that change lives

I wanted to share with you a video that follows the life of a Kiva loan! Those of you that have been long time followers of my blog will recall back on 2008 I wrote about Kiva and how $25 can help change someones life!

You can also learn all the boring details about the 71 loans I have funded since September 8, 2007 on my profile page at Kiva. :)

Happy July 4th 2010

American Flag

This 4th of July I am reminded of my trip to the Basilica of Saint Louis in Missouri where I first read the words by Pope John Paul II.

“America will remain a beacon of freedom for the world

as long as it stands by those moral truths
which are the very heart of its historical experience.
And so America:
If you want peace, work for justice.
If you want justice, defend life.
If you want life, embrace truth – truth revealed by God.”

Pope John Paul II
St. Louis – January 27, 1999

Amanda + Jason’s Wedding at the National Hotel

by Alex Rodriguez on May 21, 2010

I recently had the opportunity to photograph Amanda & Jason’s fabulous destination wedding at the beautiful National Hotel on South Beach. The weekend festivities started at the Eden Roc hotel for a fabulous ocean side gathering organized for all of the out-of-town guests. The following day we moved to the historic National Hotel for an ocean side ceremony, followed by a private reception on the grounds at the National Hotel Miami. Every detail was coordinated by Leo Iturregui and his staff at E & L Event Design. As always Jamie Lipman and staff at the National Hotel did an outstanding job! The non-stop entertainment was provided by Jose Conde and DJ Jax.
