hey friends, i'm katelyn

it doesn’t get much better than this. Brandon proposed on JMU’s campus, where both he and Lisa had spent their years in college. He proposed under a gorgeous tree on the quad and it was perfect.  Ohhh but there’s more….. his proposal included a PUPPY!!! Not just any puppy…. and little Golden Retriever puppy.  Really?! How perfect is that?! Lisa emailed me in all CAPS, exclaiming that she was engaged!! She didn’t hesitate to tell me the whole proposal and I’m so glad she did because I read it and immediately thought Brandon walked on water! He’s wonderful! (It doesn’t help that I still reallllly

 

want a puppy and so I’m a wee bit jealous of all these young couples with furry friends!) So last friday, Michael and I road to JMU. We met these two at the new stadium… met a special guest… who you will see in a minute….. and then headed to the quad for more portraits with their baby, Tucker.  Tucker is a chick magnet.  Seriously. Every girl on campus walked over and wanted to pet him! It wasn’t even just the ladies…. the guys wanted to pet him too! Freshmen at college miss their dogs and home and so when they see a puppy on campus… there’s an automatic attraction! It was very entertaining!!

 

These two are a super fun pair. As we walked around and talked about their wedding and all that they had planned, I became so pumped for their big day next year! It’s so great to work with brides that have followed the blog for a LONG time because they are so excited to be ON it! Well Lisa, my sweet friend, today is YOUR day!! You and your fiance’ are making the blog look amazing and I can’t thank you enough for allowing me to document your love! What a sweet, fun-loving couple you are! And Tucker was just icing on the cake!! Enjoy this year of engagement and I can’t wait for JUNE!!

Ha!! Welp! I’ve never photographed a fake dog before but there’s a first time for everything!!!! It was hilarious!

He gets jealous… that shot was followed by a big lick on the face.
