Hannah and Alex Engagement

~Hannah and Alex Engagement~

August 4th,2012

I have known Hannah my whole life and was very thrilled when she announced that she was engaged to Alex. Hannah's parents were very close while we were growing up, Close enough that when I think of family the VanNess family is one of the first that comes to mind. I think of Hannah as my younger cousin/ sister. I do not know Alex as well as Hannah but the few times that I have met him there has been very much of an impact that he has left on me of how much you can see he cares for Hannah. I will never forget the first time that I met Alex, it was shortly after Hannah and him had officially started dating. Hannah became very ill and ended up in the hospital for several days in Kalamazoo. I remember going up there several times for to check up on the VanNess' and Hannah. Alex was about 2 hours away from his house and was up at the hospital around the clock the entire time she was their. It was one of thos moments that I totally could see how much he adored her no matter how sick she was and that he was going to be there through thick or thin. I loved doing this engagement session with them because I got to see how Alex and Hannah interact with eachother on a normal day and not under such sad situations like the hospital. You can very much see their love for eachother and their strong friendship. Going through the pictures was so much fun, Alex can not go very long without making Hannah smile or laugh, and he forsure brings the best out of her. I am so excited for them and looking forward to helping with their wedding photos on August 4th. Congrats Guys! Love you both :) These are just a few of my favorites photos from this session :)
