With these things there’s no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery"
- First day of my life, Bright eyes.
They say when you know, you know. I always questioned this theory until I started photographing weddings.
Karla and Andrew knew each other for three months before they got married. They both said when they met, they just knew.( Coincidentally ‘knowing’ had a lot to do with food with a lot of the grooms we talk to, but that’s ok with me, food is a good reason as any to know you love someone) Karla packed Andrew a huge lunch for his drive back to school on one of the weekends they were together, and that’s when he knew she was the one. I mean after all who doesn’t like to know someone is concerned with your most basic needs, like hunger.
Love doesn’t have a schedule or a time frame, it just happens when you least expect it. One day you are hanging out with your friends complaining about work, or school, and the next the most beautiful woman you’ve ever met is making you a sack lunch for the ride home. And you know what they say, “Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth”, just run with it. Because the day you fall in love and are willing to jump in with both feet, well that’s the first day of your life….
Congrats Karla and Andrew! may you spend your whole lives investing in the love that swept you off your feet, and we hope for the rest of your lives, that you will continue to feel like you won the lottery.
