ENGAGED | Julie and Jeff

One doesn't need to spend too much time with Julie and Jeff to know that they have a lot of fun together and like to laugh, a lot! From the moment we began our time together they laughed! There was almost a giddiness about them that was so endearing it made my heart melt a little and my cheeks hurt from smiling and laughing so much a long with them!).  And everything about these engagement photos is genuine; from the smiles and affection, to the pottery cups from which  Julie and Jeff drink their morning coffee and end of day wine, to the blue jeans and cozy sweaters. It's all them, all the time!

It easy to tell how equally excited Julie and Jeff are to be getting married this summer!! And all that excitement began one evening last month. When I asked about the proposal, Julie wrote, "We were sitting on the couch and Jeff said 'Let's get married!' I laughed and said, 'I would marry you right now!' He then suggested we pick out a ring together as he wasn't sure what I would like...Lol! We went ring shopping the next day, found the perfect ring, and the rest is history!  And Julie and Jeff's history will continue to unfold this September when they are married in a garden ceremony in Saint Andrews.

As soon as their wedding plans were underway I received a phone call from Julie that began something like this: "Hello Shannon-May this is Julie from Saint John Nissan! Remember when I said I would call you when I got engaged? Well, I'm engaged, and I want you to be my wedding photographer!" "Yay!" was my response! And I am so glad Julie remembered!! I cannot wait to photograph these two on their best day together, because if their wedding is anything like their engagement session - down to earth, personal and reflective of how they love, then this is sure to be one memorable wedding!

Love & Sunshine,
Shannon-May
