While I was back on the island over New Years I was excited to see that not one but TWO of my upcoming 2012 couples were adventurous enough to do an island visit in the middle of winter. While they were there we took advantage and organized engagement shoots...
Although it was chilly... it was so fun and an unique experience for all of us. I don't have the opportunity to do photo shoots in the snow very often!! Plus I love being able to share this magical island in the winter. It is such a beautiful and serene place this time of year that most of my couples never get the chance to see.

Angela and Michael arrived on the island just in time for the first real snow... Michael had a little surprise waiting for Angela. Even though they have been engaged now for a bit, Angela didn't have a ring... in fact she wondered if she was really going to get a ring... well it was time. And I was privy enough to be witness to it!! She was so surprised. I could tell these two are going to be a couple of "clowns" and they liked snowball fights ... just check out the pics!! We laughed and laughed and laughed (I laughed when Angela got nailed with a snowball... and she laughed at my "graceful" fall)... So looking forward to the wedding...
then... a week later... the snow was melting... holidays were over, ... and Kate and David decided to travel all the way from Brussels to experience the island, see what its like and have an engagement shoot... how awesome... we may have been stomping around in slush by the time we were finished but it was well worth it... David got to do his "robot", Kate got to attempt to bike in the snow (and survived) and I got to hang out and laugh with two super cool people... Kate & David I will remember to bring the Genever to the wedding :-)
What a great way to kick off 2012... with 2 awesome couples, 2 unique photo shoots, and a chance to do something new!!
May this new year bring you all much joy, love, and happiness!
