Carri and Brian. Engaged.
I love Autumn. The colors. The leaves. The air. Mmmmm.
Um, HELLO PRETTY LIGHT!
And….. HELLO PRETTY WOMAN!
This reminds me of the famous pitchfork photo. Only with pretty leaves and fun people.
Seriously. Picturesque.
They fit together so perfectly. Like that last book you slide in your bookshelf. Snug and complete.
ALL TIME FAVE. Carri, you are SO breathtakingly BEAUTIFUL!
This just screams LOVE, FALL and FALLING IN LOVE. (Side note…pine cones are sappy and sticky.)
The park just happened to be having some sort of harvest day for families and there was this cute little corn maze set up for the kiddos. Hey, Carri and Brian! Get yo butts in therrrrrrrreeeeee and have some fun!
Carri is short. The maze had that tacky orange construction fence all the way around it and the only way I could get Carri in the shot without the orange fence was if Brian lifted her up. And then came this beautiful image….
And then this one…
Some fun facts about this happy couple….
Where is your wedding?
Our wedding is in the brides garden at Franklin Park Conservatory on 6/10/12.
How did you meet?
We met through friends (although we went to high school together) his best friend was the drummer of my best friends band Lazy Lane. We went to all their shows, he was always there solo sitting in the back by himself. I made a point to always talk to him, just to be polite. He ended up asking for my #, we talked on the phone for months & became the best of friends. He lived in Columbus, I lived in Morgantown. Our friends band threw a New Years Eve bash, which we both went to and from that night on it’s history! That was January of 2004.
Tell us about your proposal!
We got engaged on 7/23/11. It was a very hot Saturday afternoon, we just got done doing yoga. He kept asking me what I wanted to do today & I said absolutely nothing, I rarely get a day off so I wanted to just relax at home. He said ok, whatever you want. So I was just taking it easy in our favorite chair in the living room, he comes out of the bedroom & says “I can’t wait any longer” gets down on one knee and says “Carri will u marry me?” I said “of course I will!” we kissed, hugged, shed a few tears of joy & then had a long heart to heart. We spent the rest of the day together just hanging out at home.
What makes you guys unique?
Hmm, what makes us unique. This is a tough one aside from the obvious, he is very tall and I am very small. We are a silly couple. We rarely call each other by our real names & we like to make up words for things so that only we know what they mean. It’s like our own secret language! I call him Bee, he calls me be & our favorite thing to do is buggle!
How did you find Crystal Jo?
We found you through a friend of his mom. Sarah Wills Waugh got her wedding pics taken by you & highly referred you.
