First Landing State Park Engagement Photography Session

I had the best time with Joyce Anne and Mike at their First Landing State Park Engagement Session!  I love engagement sessions because I get to know the couple and talk all about how they fell in love and what they like to do together.  

You won’t want to miss hilarious moments and find out how Mike intercepted an arranged greek marriage. hahah!

There I was….photographing a wedding at the Washington DC Temple and waiting for the couple to exit….
The sweetest blonde girl came up to me and told me she was engaged and asked for a business card.  We had a great time chatting and she went on to tell me that she was my previous  bride’s roommate!

Martha and Joey are the sweetest couple ever!  They live all the way out in Bristol, VA.  And the fun thing about Bristol is that it splits the states of Virginia and Tennessee.  There is a sign that crosses State Street that shows the dividing line. How cool is that!?  It was pretty much like A Walk to Remember when Landon crosses off one of Jamie’s bucket list items off by standing in two places at once.  WATCH THAT CLIP HERE.  If only there wasn’t traffic and we were really able to do that. haha!

I first met Sonya back in 2013 when I photographed her older sister’s wedding.  Flash forward 4 years later and she emailed me about photographing her own wedding!  I loved working with their family so of course I was excited when she contacted me.

Brittany and Jared met while working at the same elementary school with young children.   A friendship at work, soon turned to text messages, long phone calls and even the occasional get together.   They bonded over coffee, religion and board games!  After a year-long friendship, the next summer Jared had plans to go on a vacation.  During his trip, it hit him, HE MISSED BRITTANY!
