She Said 'YES!' (Raleigh). . .

Lesley and my husband, Andy, grew up together here in North Carolina.  And, recently, Andy and I attended Lesley's older brother's wedding, which happened to also coincide with Chris' proposal to Lesley! YAY!  Such a fun wedding and group of people.  Thank you for including us in such a special weekend.

When Lesley approached me about taking engagement photos of her and Chris -- I was so excited! :-) 

We met at the Rose Garden in Raleigh for a late-afternoon shoot, and while it was a little warm, is was not unpleasant {in the shade}.  However, despite this recent break in the searing heat, the roses still looked pretty brown and wilted. . .so, we chose to hang out on the perimeter of the garden - in the shadows and vines!  Check out a few of my favorites:

Aren't they a beautiful couple?! Oh. my. gosh.  
And, a few super sweet ones in black 'n white. . .
And, apparently, this is what happens when the photographer turns around to pick up her camera bag. . .I may never put my camera bag down again! :-)
  
All said and done. . .I think these two might be my favorite of the day. . .
 
Thank you, Lesley & Chris! 
I am so happy for you guys, and wish you a long, healthy and happy marriage!
