Yulia and Thomas Engagements

I first met Yulia at MacDonalds in Russia.  The story of her and Thomas is especially neat because it is quite similar to me and my husband.  It involved her liking him, him dating someone else, she moving on, him realizing what he was missing out on, breaking up, and immediately dating her and proposing not long afterwards.

We took some of these on BYU campus, and most of them at Utah lake.  The clouds were great!  It was super windy and even rained a little, so sometimes we really had to work on keeping Yulia's hair down.  Also, the lake had flooded recently, so there was mud and flies and dead fish all over the trails and parking lot.  Of course you don't realize that as you look at the pictures because all you see is their love and how cute they are together.

Zhenya's Bridals

Zhenya is a beautiful bride from Kiev Ukraine who studied organ performance at BYU.  Many students and visitors had the opportunity to hear her play at devotionals, CES firesides, stake conferences, and other concerts.  Zhenya met her husband-to-be just a couple months ago and is already married!  Funny thing is, she always despised when other girls did that, but turns out, it was right for her.  Love changes everything!  Congratulations, Zhenya!
