I spent a beautiful afternoon with Leigh and Stuart during their Columbia Missouri Engagement Session on the University of Missouri Campus.  Although currently residing in Iowa, these two flew in just to have their engagement session photographed on the campus where they met.  There is nothing we love better than meeting new couples where it all began and learning about their love story!

A Columbia Missouri Engagement

Stuart will tell you that he first remembers seeing Leigh in class at Waters Hall.  He immediately took notice of her and introduced himself.  After just chatting for a bit, they quickly bonded over their love of motorcycles and science.  Both biology majors, they spent the next few semesters seeing each other in class and hanging out as friends.  It wasn’t until a while later that they officially started dating and well, the rest is history.  After graduation Leigh moved to Iowa to attend medical school and Stuart followed her there.  They got engaged shortly after and are planning their wedding during the short breaks between Leigh’s demanding medical school schedule.  I can’t imagine planning a wedding and going to medical school, but Leigh does it with such ease and Stuart is her biggest supporter!

It was clear as we walked around campus chatting about their plans for the future that these two are perfect for each other.  They’re clearly head over heels in love and my camera soaked up every moment of it.  Between Leigh’s adorable smiles and Stuart’s ability to make her laugh, the session was pure perfection!  Thank you Leigh and Stuart for spending so much time with me!  Your love is infectious and I can’t wait to share these photos with you!
