Neither of them are sure how they became friends on Facebook, through mutual friends maybe, but they started popping up in each other’s feeds. A “like” here, a comment there and soon they had caught each others attention. She decided to message this boy who’s pictures and witty statements had caught her eye.

He was living in Raleigh at the time and she was in their hometown in Virginia. So that’s all it was at first, some messaging back and forth. But when Christmas came and he was headed home for the holidays they decided to meet in person and see if this thing was actually anything. They hit it off and both their lives changed for the better. In her words, “He was looking for a reason to move home, and I gave him one.” Now they are walking hand and had through this life together.

Blake and Brittany, I had so much fun at your session this weekend, getting to know you better and wandering around in the cold. It was so much fun to witness the way you care for one another and how happy you are together. Thank you for letting me capture this part of your story. I can’t wait for your wedding next year!
