    So, my MOH was in town this weekend for my shower and I asked her to take some photos of my FI and I on the University of Maryland's campus.  She was wonderful enough to oblige and I am so happy with how they turned out!  A few of my favorites (sorry they are so huge):

     

    On the bench where we said "I love you" the first time and where he proposed:

    I love the next 2 because he was making me laugh.

    Thanks, everyone!  My only goal for the photo session was to get 1 good picture of me and the FI on the bench -- MOH J was an ace photog and got us so many other great ones!

    very cute pics...I like #3 best because it's a close-up. I like the bench pic too, but wish his face wasn't washed out on the side. do you photoshop at all? Maybe you can darken it in a bit?? sorry, I'm a photog so I notice these things...

    Did you get any pictures with Testudo?

    My FI and I are getting married at the chapel on campus and I've already told my photographer that this is a required picture!

    @kate-- we didn't get any with testudo because the mall was mobbed that afternoon and we didn't want to deal with all those people!  But, luckily, we have lots of pictures with testudo from other times

    Also, I am sure your wedding at the chapel will be beautiful!  I love the chapel-- if it was closer to our reception venue, I would have wanted to get married there too!  I hope you get some great testudo shots!

    We are doing the same thing, having my MOH take our engagement photos that is!  Your pics are super cute!!!!  I feel we both will be more at a relaxed state when we do our photo shoot because my MOH is a really good friend to both of us!

    Your MOH did a FANTASTIC job...and it prob helps that you and your hubby to be are so photogentic ;) but wow! great DIY!

    I want to get some shots like this too...I'm hoping to find a student who can do them or maybe a family friend

    What wonderful photos! I wouldn't have known they weren't professional if you hadn't said so. You both look like you're having a great time!
