She said their first meeting was a fluke. They both ended up at a single’s seminar with their church- “I thought we were going to IHOP!” It’s a good thing they were deceived, because what started out as a misunderstanding grew into something beautiful and unstoppable.

He remembers thinking that she could be his best friend. She remembers her father interrogating him. They work together- Andrea, with her sense of humor and gorgeous smile, Parraize, with his steadfast and easygoing nature. They just… fit.

Andrea and Parraize, I had such a hilarious afternoon with you two, and I can’t wait to document your love again on your wedding day, THIS SATURDAY!!

The engagement session began outside a bookstore with some lovely reflective lighting…

Parraize, you have that model face down PAT.

Love this one!

These next few make me smile because they look like a couple of best friends, just hangin out.

Oh mylanta, these next few are some of my favorites. The diffused light! The gorgeous brick backdrop! It looks like we’re in Italy! Right?

It was getting really warm outside so we popped over to Panera for a quick outfit change and some frappucino things, or whatever Panera’s version is. Remind me to never drink an entire frapp again- I was buzzing for the rest of the day.

Andrea, you are heart-breakingly beautiful Your smile is so radiant!

Work it, Parraize!

You guys! You’re amazing!

Favorite!!

Happy Wednesday!
