Hometown Love: Where it All Began

Hometown Love: Where it All Began :  wedding pictures pro pics recap Img 12202

**

Like a diligent eye-candy obsessed bride-to-be I had scoured the internet looking for photo inspirations before the wedding. Once we had worked everything out to have our first photo shoot at our high school, I looked all over for any others who took photos in a school. I found a few, but my bridal brain was so in the moment I didn’t think to draw upon any of them when we were taking photos! Luckily I did remember which school rooms I had in mind for us to visit! First stop: love in the stacks of ye ol’ library!

It just so happened there was a big volleyball tournament going on that same date and time at the school, so we had to be escorted around and let in to the locked areas of the school. I sooo wanted to sit in the bleachers, but we were (for obvious reasons) not allowed to go near the volleyball games. We did, however, have to tiptoe over the players who were strewn across the hallway with their duffle bags and what not. I tried not to be awkward, but was preparing myself for some odd looks. Fortunately, most of the girls were kind of excited to see us and told me how pretty my dress was! In turn, I said he was my high school sweetheart… this could be you someday!

Adorable! It’s too bad Mr. HC and I went to different high schools. I love your taking photos at the high school where you met!

Hoorah for library pictures! On D-Day morning, I got ready in the library of our church (we have a mirror in there too. Now that I think of it, I’m not too sure why), and I’m very pleased I did! There’s just something about books in the background… or maybe it’s because I’m a teacher. :P
