Christine and I played on our high school tennis team together (and have played a few times in our adulthood, but not as much as we would like).  I photographed her sister Jennifer’s engagement party in 2013 and Christine did not have a boyfriend at the time.

I got an email from her asking if I was available on Sunday September 13 and was about to write back asking for details about her friend’s wedding. Before I did, I paused and asked, “Are you getting married?”  That was how I found out she was engaged!

I was very happy to find out that Bryan plays tennis as well, so I predict a good doubles match in our future.

I knew she had a boyfriend because she mentioned him the last time I took my kids to get their eyes checked with her at Oakville Eye Care. As an aside, I highly recommend you take your kids there too (or yourself) because she is so gentle that my 7 year old has wanted to be an optometrist ever since her first visit with Christine.

Christine and Bryan wanted a downtown feel to their engagement photos.

In my over 20 years of knowing Christine, I can tell Bryan is definitely the right man for her (and vice versa, as you can see in the photos).

Plus, besides playing tennis (though he is now more into horseback riding), he knows how to shuck oysters.

Congrats again, Christine and Bryan! I am looking forward to photographing your wedding and our doubles match after your wedding.
