Wedding Blog
Our wonderful photographer, Amanda Meyer, took our engagement pictures for us last April in what is known as “the quad” on LSU’s campus. The scenery there is just beautiful, and I knew it would make for great shots. It was one of my favorite places to just hang out in college, because it is so relaxing and gorgeous! The weather, lucky for us, was beautiful for a spring day in Louisiana, and Amanda made us feel so comfortable.
Finally, without further ado, I give you a sampling of our engagement pictures (at least my favorites!)
By the way, I will openly admit and give a huge thank you to Sara Blakely for creating Spanx. I appreciate your products holding in my non-photo friendly belly 
Was the setting of your engagement pictures of any particular meaning to you and your fiance?

Ohh, the second to last one is my favorite, with your ring and the two arms crossing…it really makes me think of marriage. Beautiful pictures!
You and Mr. Ballet flat are so adorable, my fave is the one that you have for your profile pic!
You both look cute and very happy! Great pictures! We took our e-pics at a local park that held sentimental meaning for us - it was a place where I used to play as a kid and now it’s where my FI and I take our doggy to run around!

I too, love spanx!
Aw! These are really cute!
Great pics!! I love the ring shot.
Great photos Ms. Ballet Flat. The black and whites are awesome and I love photo #4.
WOW! You can really tell how much you two adore each other
aww these are soo cute I love the 2nd and fourth ones the most though!
My fav is the one where you 2 are looking at each other and the negative space around you is in the shape of a heart….How appropriate =)
We’re doing our engagement photos in just a couple of days, as soon as the trees decide to cooperate. Our campus, Michigan State, is absolutely beautiful when the trees are changing color, and since we met here, we figured it’d be a perfect backdrop for our photos!
Great pics! You guys look so in love My favorite is actually the 1st one! I love how you guys are just chatting it up!
I especially adore the b/w ones! And I too worship at the altar of Sara Blakely.
Very nice pics! We considered going up to LSU to get the engagement pics since we got engaged on the LSU parade grounds. The quad is such a lovely space.
Wow Ms. Ballet Flat! You look gorgeous and your engagement pictures are beautiful as well.
You are so pretty, Ms. Ballet Flat! I really like the one at the fountain and the one right underneath it.
I like the eskimo kissing picture where you are touching noses. It’s really sweet.
Aww..thanks everyone for the compliments! We really had fun taking these pictures, and I even emailed my photog today..I can’t wait for bridal picture taking fun in the Spring!! 
Lovely pics! Have any suggestions for FQ locations for me and Mr. ST to take our portraits the day of the wedding? I’m thinking Jackson Square, in the residential area on the side of the quarter closest to Esplanade, around Frenchman St…. am I missing something?
I think you are my favorite blogger so far. And you two are too cute!
I love the picture where you’re looking at him and he’s looking at the camera! Love all of them though!
@Miss Sweet Tea: That’s always a popular area for pictures..I want to take my bridals there…maybe in the cathedral gardens too? They usually have pretty landscapes in there
@Everyone - Y’all are too nice :). Thanks for the compliments (again)!

About Me: I absolutely love wedding planning, spending time with Mr. Ballet Flat, various crafts, watching football, baking, pop music, bargain hunting and ice cream. My idea of a great date night is dinner and clearance shopping with Mr. Ballet Flat! I currently live below sea level in the suburbs near New Orleans, where I make maps all day, everyday for my job. I'm slowly becoming more and more obsessed with anything New Orleans related for our wedding, and I can't wait for the big day!
