Port Burwell Engagement Photography
Clara is off to photography Sydney & Chris’ wedding today in Dorchester and I’m so happy to be finally blogging their Port Burwell Engagement Photography session captured all the way back in 2018!
- We have had a few sessions through mommy connections done a few years ago, and loves our engagement photos that you took at the beach for us as well. We have always been impressed with your professionalism and both mix of posed and natural images.
- I (Sydney) was working as a manger in a local fast food restaurant, and Chris was a friend of one of my colleagues. He came in as a customer one day a chatted with his friend, but Chris say’s he was looking to meet me from the moment he saw me. Eventually we were introduced through a mutual friend, and clicked instantly. Life together just seemed to fall into place.
- The night we were introduced he was super chatty. Maybe now I know he now he must of been nervous haha. I was drawn to his smile, and he made me laugh right away. We were young but he’s always been such a hard worker and that was clear to me right away somehow. Meeting him just felt like home.
- Our daughter, Chris and I had gone out to dinner at a London local restaurant – Spaghetti Eddies, and decided to take a walk down town to Victoria Park after we had finished; tonight was the night of the annual lighting of the Christmas lights. We watched in the crowd and snuggled close as a family drinking hot chocolate as the lights filled the park. As we strolled around admiring the lights, Chris wanted to take a picture of Alivia up against a tree. He sent her over to the tree and took a picture, and when she ran back over she actually had the ring open, bringing it over to me and Chris, and that’s when he turned to me and got down on his knee. He spoke his heart out to me. We were actually so excited that I originally put the ring on the wrong hand haha. Ever since, it has been a family tradition to visiting Victoria Park for the winter lights!
- When we can, we love to travel locally and take also take destination trips; my favourite (Sydney) memory has probably been our family trip with our kids to Riviera Maya Mexico! During that trip we took a little adult time, and decided to explore the world of amazing cenotes Mexico holds. In Mexico there are thousands of miles of underground rivers and these cenotes are just an entry to them. This trip we actually climbed through these tunnels underground, swimming and climbing through the tunnel river. There was a section we actually swim/floated in the dark for about an hour! The only light we had were headlights, and it was pitch black when they. It was such an experience to be in the jungle and earth and swim through stalagmites and stalactites.
- Chris is an extremely hard working, thoughtful person. He encourages me constantly, and pushes me and challenges me to personal growth. I love his silly personality, and his love for his friends and family. He’s always offering to help everyone, and is extremely thoughtful at giving gifts. He loves to find adventure with me, but we also share our interests in building a home full of love, personality and warmth.
- I want our friends and family to feel warmth, and calm, radiating love on our wedding day. I hope everyone feels relaxed. I want them to see how thankful I am to be able to hold such and event, and share it with them all in person considering all the circumstances that have surrounded this event.
- I will be hanging them in my living room or dinning room, and for sure in our master bedroom.
