Freshman year, eight years ago, McDaniel College, same dorm…..That’s how Matt and Lauren met. A classic college romance that has stood the test of time and now these two will be getting married this September. I love it! I met up with Matt and Lauren back on campus for their engagement photos. They hadn’t been there for a few years (I mean who really wants to go back once you’ve graduated and paid your dues, right?). But I think it turned out to be a fun walk down memory lane plus it was a beautiful campus on a gorgeous evening. And they were pretty much adorable the whole time. Lauren has such a great laugh and they both were very comfortable just being themselves. I enjoyed getting to know them better as we explored. Lauren is a high school English teacher and I’m pretty sure she rocks at her job and Matt has just transitioned to a new job because…why not? We had a great time and I love how their photos turned out. Can’t wait for the wedding this September!

Matt and Brittany met in high school. Brittany was getting into rock climbing and introduced Matt to it also. They started to partner up on climbs and hang out more. Soon climbing partners turned friends….turned more than friends. Now Brittany works with a veterinarian and Matt is an engineer, but they still make plenty of room for climbing in their lives. And they’ve also decided to spend the rest of their lives together which is pretty awesome.
Brittany asked if we could do their engagement session at Great Falls, VA because they wanted to incorporate some rock climbing into their photos. I thought that was a great idea so we met up early on a Saturday morning in May along with their dog, Pie. It was fascinating learning a few things about climbing as we hiked to the rocks. So far their favorite place to climb is Yosemite, and they are planning to spend their honeymoon in Spain….rock climbing of course. They may have a new favorite location. So amazing! I enjoyed getting to know Matt and Brittany while spending the morning with them. Brittany had some crazy stories from working at the vet office (an operation on a fish’s eye and wallabies!?!). I’m looking forward to their simple wedding early this fall at the Kentlands Mansion. I’m sure these two will fit in some great climbing before then.
