This is how John loves her. With everything. Totally and completely…like he will protect, defend, and do pretty much anything for her.

It was a pleasure to meet Rachel and John! Rachel and John are laid back, easy going and fun loving…always up for something spontaneous. Rachel told me they try not to get to wrapped up in the crazy world around them…instead take life day by day. Love this about them. They thoroughly seem to love life and just being together. Because John is in the Marines, they have a long distant relationship including the phone, Skype, and the FedEx truck delivering flowers and gifts to her door step. =) Time together is precious and I loved that they scheduled their engagement session while John was home for a short time.

Thank-YOU Rachel and John. You guys are wonderful, wonderful. Your love was a beautiful thing to witness. All the very best as you plan and look forward to your future together.

We started at the campground where John and Rachel met each other as kids in elementary school!

Pretty, pretty girl…

Looking GOOD together.

Rachel brought along this quilt made by her grandma. Couldn’t help it…had to get this fun shot…

Absolutely gorgeous…
