Rebekah and Alberto - Engaged

July 3, 2007 in Newport, RI. We were standing near each other waiting to cross the street at a cross walk. We were attracted to each other and we made eye contact. We crossed the street and made eye contact again. Alberto caught up to me and introduced himself.  He invited my sister and I to a have a drink with him and his friends. We ended up spending the evening together.  Unfortunately, I was moving to NC in 10 days, but we dated long distance for 6 months and it all worked out in the end.

Now that's when you know it was meant to be. They were meant to be at that cross walk at that moment. Such a beautiful story :-)

Rebekah and Alberto share a love for the beach so what would be more fitting than a beach session?  











Mr. Squirrel wanted in on some action too.  This little guy walked around like he owned the place.  Then when he saw my camera he switched up to his best runway super squirrel model walk.











Rebekah and Alberto were so fun to shoot!

Here is their slideshow.  Enjoy the rest of the session!  :-)
