Karis, a shy sales rep for a local gym, didn't know how to approach the cute guy she secretly had nicknamed “Paul Bunyan",but after A LOT of coaxing from coworkers, she decided to talk to Matt, who as it turned out was even shyer! But what she didn't know was that those same coworkers had convinced Matt that she went around calling him sugar britches!! So a couple weeks later when Matt finally asked her about his new nickname, embarrassment didn't even begin to cover it! After few laughs and text messages, Matt finally asked her on a date, and Karis, who had been "hiding her heart," needed the encouragements from the man she admired most, her daddy (and a few Jim Beams and Cokes) to get over the nerves. After a first date that ended with Matt playing a few poker games, having a few drinks, a lot of laughs with Karis' father, and a date on the lake, Matt admitted he, who never thought he would get married, knew that Karis was the one! So their fairy tale begins! Our Sesion with this beautiful couple began on the street Karis grew up, a place that she still holds close to her heart...  photo 2-2_zpsf2e00aa9.jpg  photo 3-1_zps4c3214bc.jpg  photo 4-1_zpsd20f19ca.jpg  photo 5-1_zps4fec0cd8.jpg  photo 6-1_zpsae149ee4.jpg  photo 7_zps440aaeb1.jpg  photo 8-1_zps18321f60.jpg  photo 9-1_zps3f9563f0.jpg  photo 10-1_zps546e0f34.jpg After a quick wardrobe change we went for a stroll on the sidewalks of beautiful downtown Anderson!  photo 11-1_zps75d4baab.jpg  photo 12-1_zps17c89bec.jpg Karis brought along a few items to help personalize the shoot!
