Christine & Jason | UD Engagement Session

Christine and Jason are dear friends of ours and it seemed like we were waiting FOREVER for them to get engaged! (Ok, maybe not that long, but it sure seemed like it!) Christine was positive Jason would propose on their trip to Germany last summer and then when it didn't happen, she was sooo sure it would be on their trip to New Hampshire. Every time I saw her I would feverishly grab her hand, looking for a ring. Even Marc would make the not-so-subtle glance at her finger, in search of a shiny object. She started to give up hope and admitted that as soon as she stopped expecting it, it would happen. The day had finally come on Christmas Eve, when Jason ushered Christine into the living room to see the special gift that "Santa" had brought her. :) I think I received a text message within the hour, informing me that I was their photographer. LOL

I think we all knew, long before they did, that they were meant for each other. I probably shouldn't say this but I don't think I've ever met a couple who was more perfect for each other than these guys. I just love the cute way she calls him "honey" and how he still opens the car door for her. :) They're hardly seen in public without their arms intertwined and their hands are seldom separated. Marc says they're "mushy" but I think they just genuinely enjoy each other. At the top of each of their Myspace interests reads the other's name and I swear within half an hour of having a ring on her finger, her status was changed to "Engaged." :)

Enough Jabber! I know Christine is going out of her mind waiting to see these, so without further ado......

We did their engagement session around the University of Delaware campus. We started off at Kirkbride Hall, where they first met. This very bench is where it all began. :)

You can tell it brought back a lot of memories for them.

Naturally, as any student does, they spent a lot of time at Smith Hall too.

I love how passionate they are! They totally didn't even pay any attention to me being there LOL.

I am very proud of how they did in front of the camera, because normally I have to fight Christine to get a picture of her! She dodges my camera like it's the plague! LOL

Then we headed over to Old College, where they also spent a lot of their time together in the beginning.

Does this ring look familiar to anyone? Anyone? Ahem, it looks awfully familiar to me. Maybe because I'm wearing the exact SAME ONE?! I'll spare Jason the embarrassment by not telling how she ended up with my ring LOL... (Its ok...we both share the same love for Vera Bradley bags and MAC Viva Glam 5 lipstick, and we both got engaged on Christmas...so it was bound to happen. Great minds think alike!)

How sweet is THIS?! I told you they were too damn cute. :)

We headed down Main Street to Margherita's Pizza, their fav food destination on campus.

Fountain soda, yuummm.

I liked these bushes so I made them stop here on our way back LOL.

Of course we had to make a visit to the green before leaving UD. :)

Thanks for hanging out with me, guys! It was so much fun and now you have no excuse to dodge my camera anymore!! :) LOL I'm so excited for the wedding on October 4th!! I can't wait!
