Carolina & Matt’s Engagement…flying high!
August 7, 2009 |
Meet Carolina (Caro-leen-a) and Matt. When Carolina first called me I found out that she lives in a duplex only 3 houses down from my parent’s house… How crazy is that? They are such a sweet romantic couple. I got together with them down in my hometown of Statesboro, GA for their engagement session. We started their shoot at the Georgia Southern Botanical Gardens. The grounds are just gorgeous and the perfect place to photograph this romantic couple.
There is an old barn on the grounds that we had to take advantage of.
How beautiful is Carolina? She will be quite the blushing bride.
I love this tree.
Can we say…Newspaper shot!
Oooh I just love this palm… It was just perfect.
Dreamy.
Sweetness.
So for the second part of their session, we headed over to the Statesboro airport. Believe it or not… I grew up in the ‘boro and I have never been to the Statesboro airport. Matt is actually quite a pilot. He proposed to Carolina shortly after did his first solo flight.
He took her to the air…. needless to say she was a bit nervous to go up in the plane with him. While flying around, suddenly, he tossed her a map and said “we’re lost!” She frantically opened it to find out where they were. The map read in RED ink ” Carolina will you marry me?” Hot glued next to the words was a diamond engagement ring!!! She said “Yes!”
After shooting some romantics on the tarmac…. Matt arranged for all of us to go up in one of the planes with an instructor. I was so pumped!
It was such a cool experience to see my hometown from such a different perspective.
Georgia Southern University…. Go Eagles.
The downtown… with the courthouse dead center.
My parent’s house. It is the street at the bottom, the house on the far left, with the tin roof, and the pool in the backyard. Carolina’s house in hidden in the trees … the third house to the right.
A closer view of down town.
What a fun couple! Thanks so much for such a fun experience. I have to say thank you for showing me a new side of the ‘boro.
Thanks so much for taking me to the air…I had a blast. I cannot wait for the wedding! To see all of Carolina and Matt’s wedding go to this link: http://jennyevelyn.instaproofs.com/enterEvent.php?id=143234
