Hannah & Rob are the very reason I think I have one of the best jobs in the world. They were such a joy to get to know and I left their session with a full full heart.
(We also took photographs.)
Hannah is a residential and commercial architect so naturally we started at the Cullen Sculpture Garden in Houston.
I asked Hannah what first attracted her to Rob and she instantly started gushing about his sense of humor. She loves how random and quirky he is.
About 30 minutes into their first date they were crossing the street and he turns to her and asks:
Do you like chicken?
She said yes, to which he stuck out his arm and said,
“Grab a wing”.
Game. Set. Match.
That’s how it’s done folks.
Another thing I love about their story is that they met the old fashion way. Online dating.
And, AND, 6 months into it Hannah knew this was legit and began the process of growing her hair out for her wedding. That is some legit planning on her part. #rapunzel
Rob told me that during their first date he was training for a triathlon and he had already had a big lunch and was not eating much at dinner.
That did not however deter Hannah, she went on to order a full plate of Bar-B-Q.
He talked about how much he LOVED that she was willing to be herself regardless of how that might “appear” or look. Spoiler Alert: Hannah is a human. She eats food.
A word to all you other ladies out there looking for love:
Real men are attracted to women who are not afraid to be themselves.
Real men are not “put off” by a confident woman.
Real men are attracted to a woman who is secure in her self and opinions.
Especially when those options are “I think I’ll have some more brisket.”
111 year old architecture for the win! Thanks St. Paul United Methodist Church.
One last note, all throughout our session we kept seeing these little caterpillars.
We loved them, I hope you do too.
