She thought she was getting a chinchilla. She thought that’s why Brian had been being so elusive. He knew she wanted one and she figured he had been trying to surprise her. So she didn’t think much of it when he called and asked her to come to his work. She showed up, excited about meeting her new chinchilla friend, and started asking what was going on…you know, she had to play along and act like she didn’t know. So, Brian took her to a room where he had a great big box from the pet store and told her to go open it. When she opened the box, all she could see was another tiny little box. That’s when she realized she wasn’t getting chinchilla, she was getting something much, much better…

Alexa is my cousin and she and her twin sister are the first kids I ever babysat so being the person to photograph her and Brian in celebration of their engagement was such an honor for me. Alexa and Brian, thank you for thinking of me for your photographs and thank you for suggesting we get out in the snow, I LOVED the idea. You guys are awesome for braving the frigid temperatures and I had such a great time. Love you lots!
