I'm embarrassed to say that prior to this engagement session I've never photographed the beauty of Enchanted Rock. While Thursdays are normally my self-care days there was a mix-up in the park reservation and we had to move up the session date. I'm so happy we did, and I'd do it all over again. The weather was perfectly sunny but cool and I couldn't have asked for such a loving and fun couple. Here is their story and only a few of my favorites from their large engagement session gallery.
How They Met
They met in high school and dated for a couple of weeks but the time wasn't right and so they went their separate ways. Arthur joined the Navy and after 6 years of traveling all around the world, he moved back to Texas. They friended each other on Facebook and picked up where they left off. They've been inseparable ever since.
Pioneered by Arthur, Alicia journeyed into the world of fitness where they found a mutual passion and fell for one another. She said 'I love you' first and he waited 6 months before returning those dangerous words. Now there's no doubt these two are meant for each other.
"The cliche thing of finishing each other's sentences and being so in tune with your person is real. He's my best friend in all aspects of life, no one gets me like him"
The Proposal
They were in Austin for their 4th year anniversary and also attending a gymnastics course. They stayed in a cute airstream Airbnb and spent the evening of the proposal riding bikes all over the city. They made some stops along the way, visiting the bats under Congress Ave bridge and finally stopping for dinner. He was uncharacteristically fidgety and acting nervous but the moment must not have presented itself. They rode their bikes back to the airstream Airbnb where they'd wind down after a day of activity. Arthur proceeds to propose as Alicia is standing in the kitchen of the airstream in a state of nature.
Yes, butt naked. #CheeksOutPorposal
"I was shocked kind of embarrassed! My whole butt was out, but definitely zero reservations to the yes I laughed out! The answer had always been yes, I was just waiting for him to ask."
A+A are having an October "wedding festival" at the fun and unique hill country venue Elm Pass Woods. I cannot wait to celebrate their special day together with their family and friends. Is it really "working" if you're surrounded by people that feel like family?
