Latoya & Jordan - Downtown Durham Engagement

I can’t believe I’m writing this!

But that amazingly beautiful girl below was my BEST FRIEND for 12 years! We met in a video store in our tiny little town when we were five. She was intrigued by my red hair, and I was intrigued by the fact that she was also checking out Nsync N The Mix. It was a best friend match - from there we were basically inseparable for years, til ya know - life, boys, extra curriculars, and High School got in the way. But that didn’t mean I didn’t keep track of her.

So when she reached out to take some engagement photos for her and her fiance Jordan I definitely jumped up for joy, just for a chance to catch up. And guess what? We are exactly the same and it was like no time had passed.

I know its always a little easier when you know your client but these two were troopers, because it was COLD out that day (I’m talking a jacket and sweater kind of morning) but that didn’t stop them from popping bubbly (yes that is hard cider because I’m not a rule breaker) and exploring parking decks and alleyways with me.

And while I’m super bummed I can’t shoot their wedding I am happy I got to capture these shots for them and spend a little time down memory lane.
