Chris + Jaclyn | Lakeshore, Ontario Engagement

Chris is a positive guy, with a genuine smile. He is a teacher, who enjoys good penmanship and Tom Shoes. Jaclyn is a bubbly gal, who is a self-professed ‘hugger’ (she gives good hugs people). She is a registered nurse, who is thoughtful and caring. These two are blessed to have found their matching puzzle piece back in their high school days. Anyone who knows them will tell you, they’re a perfect fit.

This colourful, rustic engagement session took place on Jaclyn’s grandparent’s farm. It was gorgeous and meaningful to photograph. Now, let me take a moment to explain the pancakes…

One beautiful morning, Chris got up early and started making pancakes while Jaclyn slept in on one of her few days off. Once the meal was prepared, they spent their morning scrolling through the pages of their old scrapbook reminiscing over letters, cards and photographs. Chris asked Jaclyn if he could take a new photo of them for their scrapbook right then. She was confused at why he would want a photo of them first thing in the morning, but after hearing Chris say “I think you will want to have a picture from when you got engaged” she quickly agreed! Of course, she said yes.

Chris and Jaclyn got engaged over pancakes surrounded by years of memories – could there be a better proposal?! It’s so just so personal, pure, good, and sweet! We had to incorporate a little bit of that into their engagement session. Enjoy!
