Park City Engagements: Liz + Charlie

He waited. Some might say he chickened out at first, but Charlie would tell you he was waiting for the right way to ask her out. After several months teasing each other lightly, they finally decided to hang out together. And of course there was still quite a bit of teasing involved. Particularly about another girl who seemed to have a crush on Charlie. Liz would coyly joke about him asking this girl out, but he would dodge the question and deny that he would ask her out. They were loving every minute of it. So much that Charlie knew he had to hang out with Liz again. But he waited.

Until 5 minutes after, that is, when he called her on the way home. Liz answered, surprised. “I thought of a reason not go out with her,” Charlie said into the phone. “I can tell her I’m going out with someone else.” Liz’s heart beat a little faster. “I can tell her I’m going out with you. Will you go on a date with me?”  Very smooth move on his part ;)

So whether the waiting was nervousness or intentional, Liz though it was something else entirely… it was perfect. So she said yes. And the rest, as they say, is history!

These two were SO much fun to photograph. Their natural chemistry together and beautiful love showed through in every picture… 

Liz and Charlie love to drink wine together (they are even going to have homemade wine at their wedding!!), so we decided to have some along for their shoot. And when Liz pulled out the homemade fabric garland… well, let’s just say I was one happy camper! (Er, photographer.)

How cute are these?!

Love.

Oh you guys. You’re both so fab!!

This light……

These next ones? Adorbs.

So perfect for each other!

I’ll end on two of my favorites.

Charlie and Liz, you two are such gems and I can’t tell you how excited I am for your wedding in September! It’s going to be a party :) Thank you for the honor of documenting your love! (And for putting up with all the bugs! Haha.) You guys are wonderful. Much love!
