Some say love is a temporary madness, and when it struck Lindsey one day at her apartment’s pool party, there was nothing she can do but let herself be swept by it. Her feet undoubtedly led her to Ben, and soon enough they were having a great conversation – where else but by the pool!
It was an adorable story, and while Ben was telling me this, I couldn’t help but see how much he loves her. Clearly, the madness has struck him, too. Lindsey said she heard about Ben through a friend, and when she saw him, she knew that he was the one. I love Lindsey’s warmth and openness, as well as Ben’s steady nature. They’re a perfect fit. He’s her rock while she’s the light of his life. Yes, love is madness, isn’t it?! But hardly temporary! This is one for a long haul. I look forward to their beautiful wedding at University of Tampa in less than two weeks.
The engagement session started at their house, and it was so fun just listening to them talk while I take their photos. Lindsey has a bubbly personality, and I couldn’t help but laugh at the thought of her hitting on Ben, who was cute as he was shy. They dated for two years before they got engaged, and Ben, being a true gentleman, asked Lindsey’s parents for hand before he proposed. At the mention of this, Lindsey turned to him, surprised. “I had no clue!” she exclaimed, love and joy in her eyes. Ben, a true southern boy from Alabama, indeed talked to her parents when they went to Maryland to visit. He proposed to her on a mountain top – oh, it was so romantic, I wanted to swoon.
They have two dogs, Ducky and Maple, and three cats, Rasta, Jones and Hagen. They all make such a lovely family. Here’s little Jones chilling and watching us taking photos.
I love the bed shot below. I was told that Ben probably wouldn’t go for that idea but I suggested it anyways. He was ALL-IN! Jumped in and all giggles! So nice to be trusted by the groom. =)
Lindsey works for the Department of Transportation. This was totally Ben’s idea. CUTE!!
Lindsey went to University of Miami. Of course, we had to include their mascot in a photo. Love that smile on Sebastian blocking their lips. So misbehave!
Love Sizzles
