My sweet sister Laura is engaged!! Both returned from their LDS missions within 2 weeks of eachother and days later after reuniting, they were engaged (though quick, I might add that they have known eachother a total of 4 years). We’ve managed to almost totally plan the wedding in a week and this weekend we fit her dress to her (my mom and I actually chose and bought the dress for her, and in a true miracle, she loves it!), do her invites, and take their engagement picture. We had about 20 minutes till the sun was fully set, so this was a SUPER quick shoot. These are pretty much the only pictures I have of them where they aren’t sucking face. We’re just as excited for them as they are. We love you Laura and Jared!
Okay, also wanted to add that I love the lighting/color effect
LOVE them All!!!I can’t wait to see everyone!Why can’t I have cute hair like Laura?
OH MY GOODNESS our sister is gorgeous. LOVE the shots and I love that Laurels is wearing a polk-a-dot shirt because it shows up in b&w too. Not sure which ones I like best.
LOVE THESE!!!! Laura’s eyes look amazing!!!!!!
These are great – you’ve really captured the happiness that they are so obviously exuding. Congrats to your sister!
Congratulations! Isn’t it illegal for a 9 year old to get married? (Just kidding – I just can’t believe she’s old enough to get married. She will always be little Laura to me!)
leah i can’t believe how much you and laura look alike! that’s so exciting for her; what a cute couple! i loved looking at your family vacation photos. have you ever seen the movie dan in real life? your photos reminded me of it; i love new hampshire. what a beautiful place!
If anyone can pull off a good photo shoot in 20 minutes it’s you! These are all so cute! She’s darling. Definitely can tell she is your sis.
Ok, those are awesome!!! They look so in love. I think the first 2 are my fav. I want you to take some engagement pics of me and my Jared. I know, we’ve been married for a while now, but I didn’t get cool ones like this! No fair! You are amazing, Leah!
your sis only looks a little in love w/ this guy- ya right- she looks head over heels- so wonderful!
Gorgeous couple and what a perfect love story!
Adorable!
How exciting! Congratulations Laura! These photos are fabulous. They look so in love and beautiful together.
What a cute couple! Fabulous pics!
Whoa! Talk about a whirlwind! Sounds exciting and they look as happy as can be.
You continue to amaze. Love these! Please share your processing recipe. : )
Wow! I can’t believe you pulled all that off in such little time. Pretty amazing. Lovely shots.
oh my! Congratulations Laura! I am so behind in blogging, I didn’t even know. So when is the wedding? And where is he from?
Leah! My name is Jacque Roberts. I’ve been a reader and admirer of your blog for a couple of years and when I saw this post about your sister I wanted to shout for joy! It’s my story too. I’m off to serve a mission in Paris–where your brother is I guess? And my sweet heart of three years is serving in Toronto, Canada. When we reunite, like Laura and Jared, I’d love to meet you and have you take some pictures of us, just like these. You and your family are so beautiful; you make me excited for the future. Have a happy day!!
Those pictures are adorable! You and your sister are both beautiful!
Laura, you’re beautiful! Congrats on the engagement and approaching wedding!
