When I first met Terina and Kelvin, it was obvious that they were smitten with one another. They just exuded a sincerity and sweetness that was absolutely charming and infectious. They met through Terina's sister, and got engaged at Sims Lake Park--the place they chose for their engagement session as well as their wedding.
At their engagement session, it was windy, and when I had trouble folding up my reflector, Kelvin immediately came to my assistance. He was an absolute gentleman. He held Terina's hand and helped her down some grassy slopes during the shoot. I just adored them.
The day of their wedding, rain was in the forecast, and although we escaped the rain for bridal portraits and groom's portraits, we got caught in it before the ceremony and camped out in a wooded curve under some umbrellas taking turns holding my giant reflector over Terina so she would stay dry! Once the rain let up, the ceremony was on, and ya'll--the way Kelvin looked at his bride is the way every bride dreams her groom will react. After the sweet ceremony, and lots of happy tears, we were getting ready to shoot bride and groom portraits. I suggested an open field if Terina could get across a stream of water flowing through a ditch--and ya'll--Kelvin scooped up his bride and carried her across that ditch and field to keep her shoes dry!! What a guy...and what a couple. I just can't even express how special they are and how excited I was to be a part of their beautiful day. I have absolutely no doubt they will have a joy-filled marriage...their genuine sweetness and love for one another is inspiring. Congratulations to Terina and Kelvin!
