Chad and Jackie live quite a ways away from my home in Kalamazoo. We decided to meet half way to make sure we got these Engagement pictures while the flowers were still vibrant.

Not being too familiar with the area for an Engagement Session, I went to my friend Google. I found the gardens at the MSU Horticultural Center and hoped for the best.

We met as soon as the sun was dipping just below the treeline. It was perfect.

Beauty everywhere. Including on the faces of Chad and Jackie. I fell in love with these two that day.

The way they talked to each other and protected each other. You could see love between them. And it was real. I see a lot of young love, this was real committed love.

Jackie has this hair that every girl envies. Yep, that kind of hair. We were there for a long time and her hair stayed perfect. Perfect.

 

I loved how easy going they were and how they loved the simple things in life.  My kind of people.

 

I think I have said this before, but I love the light.  Anyone who knows me, knows at least that much.  I look for the light.  We found it and I was in my glory.

 
Jackie made this adorable sign.  She made it. I think it was that morning.  I loved it.  

 

 

Chad and Jackie, keep the wonder in your love.  Keep that secure unending love for one another.  It shows in you.  Thank you for letting me see.
