Yohana + Pat – Southford Falls, Oxford, CT Engagement Session Photos

August 4th, 2009

When Erik and I first met Yohana and Pat we totally fell in love. As they told us the story of how they met and and started dating I got goosebumps and a bit misty as it reminded me of my favorite love story in Love Actually. Yohana had recently moved to this country and was learning to speak English. When she and Pat met and started dating their verbal communication was limited, but they just knew…and they truly are a perfect fit. They have the qualities I most admire in people – they are full of life and laughter, and therefore a blast to be around, and they have a good sense of humor (with a healthy dose of sarcasm)! Erik and I had so much fun spending the afternoon with them at Southford Falls in Oxford.

Yohana says she like hiding in the leaves.

We walked down toward the bottom part of the falls and they were both decided to climb down the steep sides to get closer. Erik and I were happy about that ; ) This is my view.
