Anna and I went to high school together, but did not necessarily know each other. She was the grade below me, but I knew of her, because we had a lot of mutual friends, her dad was the band director (and I was in orchestra) and her sister was 2 grades ahead of me and in all of the musicals. It was only obvious that Anna would end up with someone who was musically inclined:) Rob and Anna met at St. Olaf college, in Minnesota (which is well known for it's music program -- it was in my top choices for colleges-- beautiful campus, too!). I can't wait to shoot their wedding there in August! It's going to be gorgeous. And they're having some of my favorite people do music... including my old high school orchestra conductor, Mr. Halstenson... (Both my husband and I had him, we play in the community orchestra he conducts when our schedules allow, and he also played and arranged a piece for our wedding!).
Anna majored in English/Education and is now teaching English and Theater in Iowa. Rob majored in Music and is currently getting his Masters in Opera/Musical Theater in Illinois (so they're apart at the moment, but try to get together as often as possible). Rob proposed to Anna ON STAGE after one of the plays he performed in. Um, can you say FREAKIN' ROMANTIC!??? So, it was only logical that we did their engagement portrait session at The Guthrie Theater in Downtown Minneapolis! We also headed outdoors afterward to get some fun wintery shots with Minneapolis in the background.
"Wow.... look at that couple making out over there!"
Snow in her shoe! What a gentleman:)
Good luck with the rest of the school year, Anna & Rob-- I know it's hard being apart, but so very soon you'll be together! I can't WAIT for your wedding day! I'm sure you can't either.:)
