BJ & Mikka: Engagement
July 20, 2009Mikka told BJ about her dream to one day build a house on a beautiful hill in the country where she grew up. Not that she was hinting at anything, since they started dating in high school. Several years later, before Mikka headed out for night with the girls, BJ asked her to show him the exact spot she wanted to build the house of her dreams. In her high heels and dressy clothes, they treaded through the high grass to get to her dream spot. “Okay, here it is. Can we go now???” She asked him in a hurry. BJ got on one knee and asked for permission to spend the rest of his life with her, hopefully one day in a house on that very hill. I think the evening with the girls was probably cancelled.
BJ and Mikka, it was so good to see you both again. I can’t wait to spend the day with you in October as you exchange your vows! Thank you for trusting me to capture this time in your lives! Enjoy your sneak peek!




I just love the way he’s looking at her in this one.



They showed off some of their dancing skills for me!


I think it’s so sweet how he can make her giggle and laugh.


Don’t you love BJ’s look? It’s like he’s saying “I am SO lucky.” And you can tell, she’s totally into him. Love it.






Special thanks to The Inn on Lake Granbury for allowing us to shoot on their property. I would HIGHLY reccommend this bed and breakfast to anyone looking for somewhere to stay while visiting Granbury or if your looking for a romantic getaway. In fact, this is where Eric proposed to me a couple years ago! Maybe I’ll share our story on our anniversary!
So, check them out!

Mikka: I love them! Can't wait to see the rest!
