Happy 2014!! It is hard to believe it is already January and another year is here. I have so many things to look forward to this year. It is exciting, stressful, overwhelming and a little surreal sometimes to think I am planning my wedding but I am loving the ride. We took a break from doing any serious planning but now that the new year is here we are ready to get back into full gear! More on that soon...!
I have been wanting to do a blog post months ago but due to my moving to a new apartment and holiday stuff I had to push it back. Our engagement photos have officially been in for awhile but we are just recently starting to share them. We had such a nice time taking the photos and we got to meet and work with the photographer doing our wedding photos. It was a great time and we were lucky to get a picture perfect day. The weather, the sky, the breeze was just perfect. I can only hope we get an equally beautiful wedding day.

What we wore
For engagement photos our photography company suggested that we dress in complimenting outfits as if from the same catalogue without being too matchy matchy. In order to do that we bought clothes from the same store so that the colors and style would mesh well. Pete and I love the store Express and since they carry both men and women's clothes we picked outfits from this store for the photos.

Michelle: Black Dress (H&M-old but Express literally had the exact same dress this season) , Cardigan (Express-old), Belt (Express), Bandolino boots (Macy's)
Pete: Black sweater (Express), Gray pants (Express), Black loafers (Journeys)

Our Favorite Shots
I expected to wait a few weeks before we got our proofs back but I was surprised that we got them back only 1 week later!! They came out beautiful and we are very happy with them!! Below I have posted a few of our favorite shots!! I'm planning to order a few prints to hang up around our apartment and we will also choose an image from the shoot to use on our save the date announcement.
