Dangerously In Love

The night Charlie decided to go see a local play he could never have imagined he’d be watching his future wife perform. After spotting Jamira on stage, he just knew there was something super special about her. She saw him too, but they missed their chance to connect after the show. He went home and sent her a Facebook friend request, which she happily accepted. This summer, they’re making it official in Los Angeles, and to celebrate, they staged an unforgettbale America’s Most Wanted themed engagement shoot. See their amazing photos, here!
