Park City Engagements: Shaylee + Alex

It started in high school. On a bus. With an orange.

Shaylee peeled an orange for Alex, which led to some friendly talking. And hanging out at a football game. Followed by a little more talking. Then just a lot of hanging out in general. And that was it. A month or two of getting to know each other, and they were pretty much hooked. I can’t really blame them, though. Shaylee’s bubbly personality fits perfectly with Alex’s calm and witty demeanor. She positively lights up when she talks about all of Alex’s achievements, she is nothing but proud of him. And the quiet way Alex watches over her, slipping in a funny comment here and there just to see her laugh. They pretty much go together like, well, like cilantro and lime. (I had Mexican for dinner last night.) They’ve been together since high school (woop woop!), and in March, they’ll make it forever. And I am SO excited for this wedding. Just had to add that in ;)

We took their engagements at the White Barn, because Alex is training to be a pilot in the Air National Guard (ballin’!!), so they will be traveling quite a bit these next couple years, and they wanted a little piece of Park City in their pictures. And of course we had to start out taking a few in Alex’s uniform!

LOVE how cute they look together all dressed up. 

There is also a slight rivalry between the two of them…

Haha.

These next ones might be my favorite.

J’adore.

Ohhhh Shaylee. You are stunning.

They could never keep a straight face for very long. Haha.

You two are seriously so perfect together.

Congrats again Shay and Alex!! Can’t WAIT for your wedding!!!

Beautiful couple, great pics! Although I might be biased as I am the step-father of the bride. Thanks for capturing their personalities.
