Historic Oak View EngagementWell, Happy MONDAY y’all!! Pregnancy insomnia is at it’s finest lately so that means I’m up at 1am lying in bed and finally decided to get up at 5am to at least be productive. After 35 weeks, I’ve finally caved into a cup of caffeinated coffee – I figured one cup wouldn’t hurt and I’ve made it this far ;)! Plus, Pumpkin Spice Latte creamer!! On the bright side, I have the most stunning engagement session to share with you today!! Taylor and Kalyn are incredibly photogenic and joyous in all of their photos which is why this blog post is busting at the seams! These two are also incredibly gracious – working with a pregnant woman in the summer time (talk about sweaty, out of breath and waddling LOL!). I was scrambling through 5:00 Raleigh traffic on a Friday, passing 2 wrecks and straight stopped traffic trying to make it to their e-shoot – leaving with 30 minutes to spare, I still managed to be late. Oh, Raleigh – I’m adjusting to your traffic at 5:00 but I sure miss my small town roads. I hate being late. I hate confessing that on my blog! It’s the worst thing and gives me anxiety!! Especially for my clients. But they were so patient with me and I was able to photograph them a little bit longer to make up for it ;).

Taylor and Kalyn got engaged on June 27 (Kalyn’s parent’s wedding anniversary) – how sweet is that?! Taylor recently bought a house and on a Monday night they planned to paint the living room together. But little did Kalyn know… when she arrived, there were lights and a sign hanging in the living room and their dog was wearing a “will you marry me” bandana!! How creative and thoughtful. Of course, she said YES and now they are planning a summer wedding in 2017! I love proposal stories!! It’s one of the first questions I ask my couples because they are all so unique and fun to hear! Kalyn had the most adorable style and matched Taylor perfectly. The colors were amazing in camera and well, I just love everything about their e-shoot! So take a look for yourself!

I can’t wait for their May wedding!!
