Kelly and Wes are a dynamic duo. I mean that WHOLE heartedly.
I’ve known Kelly for as long as I can remember. We grew up in the same neighborhood, which meant we always went to the same school. Kelly is a year older than me, so we never had any classes together, but you don’t forget a pretty red-head with the same name as you, do ya? Since day one that this little business of ours has been open, Kelly has been SO supportive. She always comments, likes, and shares all of our posts. We’re so thankful for her generous soul. And can I just say “HAIIIIRRRRRRRR.” Kelly’s.Hair. OMG, I think I played with it 50 times, it’s so romantic. And Kelly’s makeup?!?!?? 100% yes! Brides, consider getting your makeup done for your engagement photos, because Kelly was looking FIERCE thanks to my girl Kasey Acuff.
I remember when she started posting pictures of this mysterious guy. I wondered “Who is this guy, and WHEN is he going to propose?!” I was already mindlessly dreaming they would ask US to capture their special day. To our blessing (and surprise) they actually did, after THE CUTEST proposal story I’ve ever heard:
(Also, I know I’m not a guy, but I feel like this proposal should be prefaced with “On behalf of all men out there, good luck one up-ing this epic proposal.”)
Kelly and Wes went to Disney World together (hello magical.) While they were there, Wes decided he was going to propose with a caricature drawing. While Kelly stepped away for a minute, Wes quickly informed the artist of his plan. People kept walking by while Kelly and Wes were posing, and Wes was so afraid that someone would spill the beans or say “congratulations!” Fortunately, his plan worked. When the artist turned the art around to show Kelly and Wes, Kelly was shocked and turned to Wes who was down on one knee. FOR.THE.BOOKS.
Needless to say, Kelly said “YES!”
This engagement session is one of our very favorites. Kelly and Wes are 100% comfortable and natural together, which made our job a breeze. We lucked out and got a warm day in December, which was amazing.
Kelly and Wes, we CANNOT wait for this coming April for your Heartwood Hall wedding!
You guys enjoy!
