When Ben’s friends invited him out to celebrate his birthday back in May 2010, he was not expecting what followed. He would have declined if not for the weeks of instant food and TV dinners he’d stocked up on. Real food is a powerful motivator! Little did Ben know he’d run into another friend having a party with colleagues in the next room. And THAT’S where he saw her. A petite Anna, with her heart-stopping smile and fierce shoes. The opportunity was there. But he’d kick himself hundreds of times in the weeks that followed. For not asking for her number. Luckily for Ben, his next chance came when he bumped into Anna at another restaurant soon after…
Contact info was exchanged, but visits from family made connecting more difficult than anticipated. Until a third and final run-in at the airport… They had two different destinations. But FIVE-hour delays for both flights found Anna and Ben chatting it up at yet another restaurant. The conversation was seamless. They’d known each other for their entire lives it seemed. And that conversation? Was the beginning of the rest of their lives. Together.
I had the sweetest time capturing Ben and Anna’s engagement at City Hall last week. It’s only fitting that two of the kindest souls I’ve ever met have found each other… A&B – I am so, so happy you are together at last. And together FOREVER! And I’m excited to share some of my favorite images of you today. XOXO!! :)
I will never tire of the light that pours over the top of this building. OR photographing such pretty subjects!
The gorgeous Anna being cuddled by her man. This image makes me smile. :)
