I truly cannot stop swooning over Emily and Daniel’s elegant Columbus Museum of Art military engagement session.

Emily is one of my dearest friends from college. Not only did we become fast friends at our job in the admissions office of our university during my freshman year, we also share the same home state (the greatest home state, may I add – the great state of TEXAS y’all). So even when we were out of school for the summer, we actually spent a whole summer of college both living in Dallas and it was such a special season. Even though we’ve both graduated, we have still kept in touch, so when I hosted a brunch for Christmas this year, I knew I wanted Emily there.

She arrived a couple minutes early to the brunch to help me get food ready, and when we stepped in to the kitchen I asked her about this guy she had started dating, Daniel. She told me “well, actually, I’ll need to talk to you about wedding photography soon because i’m going to marry him.” WHAT. ON. EARTH. I’m pretty sure I screamed a little bit and squeezed her arm and did a happy dance and then freaked out alllllll over again. Emily and I have done so much life together and to see this prayer be answered in her life was just such a testament to the kindness and faithfulness of Jesus.

Anyways, to bring this novel to a close (because I know you’re truly here to see their cutie pictures) when I finally met her Marine fiancé at their engagement session, Daniel was just as kind and amazing as Emily described him. I couldn’t be happier for these sweet friends and I am SO excited to celebrate with them as they tie the knot this fall!
