How did you two meet?
We actually met on match.com about a year before we ever met in person. We exchanged a few emails and then it fizzled out. Fast forward a year and we run into each other thru mutual friends at Tin Roof in the Epicenter.
What were your first impressions?
Matt had just come from a concert (JayZ concert Jan 4, 2014) and we were talking about music and later I found out he almost stopped talking to me because I had said my favorite band is Nickelback (I'm Canadian!) It has been an ongoing joke in our relationship, including gag gifts of Nickelback memorabilia.
After that initial night at the tin roof, it took about 3 weeks for us to run into each other again (I planned "running in" to each other), and we decided to go on a date the next day. Well, he forgot to get my number, so I managed to track it down thru our friend. Needless to say, I pursued him :)
He later told me that he never intended to fall for me but I wore him down over time. How romantic.... Me on the other hand, new that he was the one right away.
How did the proposal go down?
It was Canadian Thanksgiving Oct 9 and I always make a big Thanksgiving dinner for our friends in Charlotte. I had been cooking all day, and after we had just finished eating, he called me up to give a speech with him and that is when he got down and proposed in front of our family and friends.
Oct 9 was also when Hurricane Matthew and Tropical Storm Nicole was devastating the coastline. So included in his speech was how basically that this was the galaxy's way of telling Matt to propose. An act of God. haha.
My impressions of Nicole and Matt
They love each other. They get each other and they enjoy and compliment each other. It's funny how that sounds almost like this is abnormal. In reality, it kind of is sometimes. I meet a lot of people, sometimes certain folks just impact you differently and you connect with them on a different level.
I did not have the opportunity to photograph their first reception, but I did have the chance to photograph everything else and each time, I was blown away by the amount of affection and love the two of them share for each other.
I am excited to finally reveal all their photographs below. Enjoy and love ya's both!
