It’s a love story. Their friends insisted on them meeting. E-harmony matched them together. hmm…a little meant to be? April decided to go along with friends one weekend to meet this Nick she had been hearing about and matched up with. Since that weekend last May, they have been inseperable.

I have known Nick since I was a kid. We were in the same youth group at church and shared our first jobs, along with all of our friends, at Chick-fil-a. We ran that place. For real. It was awesome going to work and hanging out with your friends. Now Nick has been titled our “most successful friend.”  He flys F16 planes in the Air Force. He’s pretty cooollll. April is a dance teacher.  Its a case of the ultimate guy and girly jobs. The quarterback and the head cheerleader(not them, just for reference), the fighter pilot and ballet teacher.

Nick was scheduled to leave for Iraq on May 11, so the weekend before we decided to shoot their engagement session. The plan was for Nick and April to wed when he returned in September. When I met up with them that day, they casually mentioned they secretly GOT MARRIED the day before! What?!?!?

They met. They knew. They got engaged. A few weeks later they married. It fits. Just like they do.

This engagement turned wedding shoot falls really close to my heart. I am so happy for you Nick and glad you knew to snatch up a girl like April. I can’t wait to see what lies ahead for the two of you.
