California Engagement Photography: Claremont Colleges: Amanda loves Carlos

Between the bustle of dishes clanking, orders being taken, drinks being made, and the laughter of patrons, Amanda and Carlos noticed each other as they worked at TGI Fridays. Each thought the other was cute, but neither made a move.

It would be at Buffalo Wild Wings, when they were hanging out with coworkers, that they finally began to talk, connect, and honestly fall in love. Amanda soon saw that Carlos was thoughtful, funny, and caring.

“He is very thoughtful, if he sees I need help with anything, he doesn’t hesitate to help. He can make me laugh no matter what mood I’m in, and he is super sweet and can put a smile on my face and help me up when I’m feeling down. He is caring and a great dad to our fur babies. I know he is going to make an amazing dad for our future babies.”

Carlos had admired Amanda for a while. She was beautiful, but soon, he saw that she also had a lot of beauty within. Amanda was loving, funny, and dedicated. “She’s very affectionate, so she likes to snuggle up close any chance she gets with me… or the dogs. It doesn’t matter, she just likes being close to those she loves. She’s very funny. It’s never boring being around her. She’s a really hardworking person. She loves to learn new skills. I wish I had that same dedication that she has to try and learn new things. I guess in many ways we are opposites, but in ways that mesh and compliment each other and I love that about her.”

Knowing Amanda loved plants and nature, Carlos took her to an arboretum in Arizona. He had with him a ring that Amanda was destined to have. It was her grandmother’s, and it was a promise that Amanda would wear it when she got engaged. The Arboretum was crowded, but their hike took them to a secluded spot by a creek under big beautiful trees. Amanda was talking to Carlos about the view and staring at the trees when she noticed he was not saying anything. She turned to see him on one knee holding her grandmother’s ring. She did her best to not, “ugly cry,” and said, “Yes!,” to forever with the man she loved.

The University of Arizona Graduation: Jennifer

It doesn’t matter how long it takes, keep going. For Jennifer, this graduation celebration took almost 25 years. A few things came up along the way….like kids. And now more than ever, she is an example to follow.

She has received her BA in Project Management from the University of Arizona. She is currently a Project Engineer but now she plans to… in her own words, “Be a Bad Ass Project Manager.”
