Carey + Christian • Princeton University Engagement • New Jersey Wedding Photographer

It was my very first time photographing at Princeton University campus and I am totally in love! There are so many amazing spots for photos and the architecture is just stunning! 

I first met Carey and Christian at Carey's sister's wedding earlier this year (see it here: Maegan + Ryan). I was so excited when Christian proposed to Carey and they asked me to be their wedding photographer! Such an honor!!

HOW THEY MET 

"We met at The College of New Jersey where we both went for our bachelor degrees. We had some mutual friends and we were active in the same Christian organization on campus. Christian was two years older than me and we really didn't start hanging out until his senior year. Christian made it seem platonic but clearly he had different intentions!"

HOW HE PROPOSED

"We went on a sunrise hike at High Mountain in North Haledon, NJ right near Christian's grandparents. From the summit, you can see clear views of NYC and it provides breathtaking views with the sun rising behind the buildings. This place was significant for Christian because it was where his parents got engaged 30 years ago. We sat on one of the rock outcrops overlooking the city when Christian asked me to stand up and then he got down on one knee. The rest was history."

Carey + Christian tied the knot this November! I cannot wait to share their gorgeous wedding very soon. In the meantime, enjoy so many favorites from their engagement session at Princeton University. 

Merry Christmas from The de Myers!

 

2020 has been a year to remember or some may say, a year to 'forget it ever happened'! 

Hoping this holiday season and 2021 brings us better days and much happiness.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from The de Myers! 

Jack is 7!

Seven years ago we were blessed with the sweetest gift! 

Jack fills our life with so much joy and silliness. He still loves his Legos and builds something every day, whether it's the blocks, paper or cardboard boxes. He loves to create!

I am not going to lie, this year has been challenging for all of us but the kids seem to have adjusted pretty well to the "new" reality. Jack is a homebody and did not mind being home when the pandemic forced us to isolate. He did start missing his friends eventually and was ready for playdates!

Jack finally lost his first tooth this year and a couple more followed. He's getting so tall soon he will catch up to his sister!

He's a fast learner and he seems to really like math (taking after his mama 🤓) He loves music and dancing, and wants to play piano. 

Chess, monopoly and connect four are his favorite games. And doing puzzles 😊 He loves riding his bike and playing outside with his friends. 

The way he says "mama" still melts my heart, and I love when he asks me to snuggle before he falls asleep. 

Happy 7th Birthday, Jack! 

There will never be enough words to describe how much we love and adore you!
