ENGAGEMENT | Fun Engagement in an Artsy District in NC | Casey Hendrickson Photography

These two love birds had one of the most fun engagement sessions ever! Despite what can be seen, it was actually raining for the majority of their session, but their love and laughter outshines all of that.

Erica & Chris

How they met: Erica and Chris both found themselves in the same bar one night at the ever-so-popular Solstice in NoDa, a very artsy district of Charlotte with some of the best food places around! Chris is a pretty funny guy, and asked Erica to split a pitcher of beer with him after they found themselves talking for a bit. She said yes, and they continued talking - ALL NIGHT LONG (pun intended seeing as one of Lionel Richie's songs came on that night as well!). They went through conversation after conversation, laughing the whole time. When the bar closed, Chris offered to walk Erica to her car. After contemplating a kiss, she turned him down saying no kissing on the first date! He got her number, asked to take her out again soon, and then they did things a little differently. Take a date and flip it upside down. That's how this played out. They kissed for the first time at a red light on the way to dinner, and then decided to be adults and go backwards with how you generally eat at restaurants - dessert first all the way to salads last! It was love, joy, and everything in between. Vendor Love: Casey Hendrickson Photography
