Alysia and Jeff - Engagement Session - Mystic, CT

"As cliche as it might sound, fate brought the two of us together. Jeff moved to Clearwater, Florida from Milford, CT to start a new job and a few months later I moved to Tampa, Florida from Philadelphia, PA to start a new job. Our paths crossed and we had our first date at Frenchy's on Clearwater beach in October of 2006. After a few Florida summers we decided that we wanted to make our way back north. We decided on Stamford, CT. We joke that we had to move to Florida to find each other!" - Alysia

Yes, fate did bring these two together. The chemistry between is incredible. In getting to know Alysia and Jeff the first thing I thought that would be perfect would be an Apple Picking session at Lymon Orchards but unfortunately Jeff was in Florida and we just missed apple picking season. No worries Alysia and Jeff also love visiting aquariums. Soooooo.....of course I had a mall is open and sale signs just went up in every window moment! MYSTIC!

First stop was the aquarium. It was a cloudy, misty day and we prayed that the rain would hold off. I'm sure glad it did because we had some fun outdoors after leaving the aquarium.

I love their reflections in this shot.

Super cool Jelly Fish!

Sidenote: trying to shoot a ring underwater with kids making the water wave makes for difficulty focusing. It took me about 5 minutes to get the shot but I was determined!

Hot!

Be sure to watch the slide show to see the surprise Jeff had purchased for our session. Also a little out take on what can happen when you blow dandelions into eachothers faces ;-)

Thanks Alysia and Jeff. I had fun hanging out with you two. Enjoy :-)
