highschool sweethearts

Yay! The rest of our engagement photos and story are up on Christine's blog. So go and have a looksie! We're so happy with how our school themed love shoot came out.
My baby brother made this old school looking chalkboard for me specially for the shoot. I showed him a photo of my idea and he just went for it - I never knew he was so handy with tools. But I did know that he an absolute sweetie!
We left the board blank for some shots so we could Photoshop words in and for this shot M stuck down some thickers to replicate the idea of those boards they use in school photos. You know the ones they place in front of the kids in the front row that say the school, teacher, class and year... I've no idea what their called?!
And now I have a cute chalkboard on which to write notes to the Mr ... you know romantic things like "dishes need doing please hun" and "meatloaf is in the fridge" ;)
I particularly can't wait to get this one of M enlarged - I think he looks pretty dreamy :)
thanks again Ms Pobke!!

  4. The photos are just lovely! And we are - funny enough - using slates just like that in school this month. Just like old-fashioned days. :)

    You will treasure these photos forever and ever... my daughter just asked for the first time to see my engagement photos. Imagine that happening to you! :)
