Have you ever had one of those moments when you felt like you met someone that you just belonged with? Bumped into your counterpoint? Spotted a bird of the same feather, and you needed to flock together? Or even found the other pea from your pod? This all sounds very romantic, right? And you might even think that I am buttering you up to get you in the mood for some romantic engagement photos, when really I’m just trying to elicit some excitement in you over how much I **adore** Marina and David!!!
Marina came to me from a referral from a friend’s mom to her mom. When we began chatting over via email it seemed that our language needed no translation. I never felt the need to apologize for my obnoxiously teenaged lingo, or my excessive use of exclamation points. She didn’t steer clear of me even after I cyber stalked her for days, and maybe even single white femaled her a bit. She actually might have one-upped me in one (or two) of these categories. She is my sister from another mister, but yet I actually think that she might be my sister from the same mister and that my mom accidentally forgot to tell me that she had another child ten or so years after having me, and that she gave her away to the fire department, and then that baby was shipped away to a new beautiful mother who would someday find her way back to me, and then refer her daughter… wait… my sister… to me for her wedding photography.
Too far fetched? I think, no.
I love this girl, and I swoon over the adorableness that she and David create together.
Marina and David are wine looo…vers, to the max. So when they mentioned the idea of mixing in some elements of wine and romance into their shoot I was completely on board! It is so awesome to walk into a wedding and see the engagement photos that were taken months earlier, and yet they still tie in so nicely with the wedding.
It is no secret that I am smitten by fresh flowers, and it is also not a secret that I think that Catherine at Layers of Lovely can do no wrong.
This girl is blessed with beautiful porcelain skin!!
And then this happened, and all was right in the world. Oh Marina. Sofreakinggorgeous!
April can’t get here soon enough, my sweet friends!! xo.
