The Cherry Blossoms are Here!
A Love So Beautiful
“What a strange thing!
to be alive
beneath cherry blossoms.”
-Kobayashi Issa, Poems
The Engagement Slideshow
Above is the Engagement Slideshow that I created for the Stephanie & Andrew from their engagement photos.
The Engagement Ring and How They Met
There is something to be said for young love. That is why we write about it, sing about it, and cry over movies about it. Stephanie and Andrew met in 10th grade by adjacent lockers. Andrew took his girl to high school grad by asking her out with a scavenger hunt! How adventurous and fun (one more thing about that young love eh). She said yes to the dance and years later, Andrew asked Stephanie’s parents for their blessing. Stephanie had no clue when Andrew picked her up from work. He took her to Whitemud Park and played “Say Something” by A Great Big World. Listening to the story made our heart skip a beat. This was the song they danced to at their High School grad. While the song played, Andrew proposed to Stephanie on a bridge. Stephanie cried, Andrew cried and so did I.
They can eat a ton of Cake of a Thousand Layers and Halo Halo shaved ice.
They both love Brooklyn 99.
They are basically goals and I ship them hard.
The Engagement Session at the George F. Hustler Memorial Plaza
Did you know that there are over 200 different varieties of cherry blossoms? Just like love, there are so many kinds, yet all precious and beautiful. Everybody needs to see them up close at least once in their lifetime. Stephanie and Andrew are the lucky ones to have found love just as beautiful as the pretty blooms.
The engagement session took place at George F. Hustler Memorial Plaza near Muttart Conservatory. It was cherry blossom season and the grounds were a gorgeous canopy of pinks and greens. The sun shone bright and so did these two!
Cherry blossoms last only a week so there was a big crowd (I’d go again, it was picturesque!), we got some beautiful photos and these two gave us all the goals to aspire to!
It was amazing to work with Stephanie & Andrew for their engagement photos and I am honored to have been a part of their story! You can check out the rest of my work on my blog.
