What a GORGEOUS Fall afternoon in Hoboken! The leaves finally changed color pretty late in the season and the bright yellow foliage was so pretty! I finally got to meet Robyn and Tommy, and they were so sweet..we hit it off right away. We walked (and Uber’ed!) around town to a few different parks, some side alleys, and even a beach (I literally had no idea that there was a beach in Hoboken!) The NY skyline was the perfect backdrop, I seriously loved everything about this session! Robyn and Tommy are getting married next October in Mamaroneck, NY.

How did you meet:

“We met through work.  For almost 2 years we were working for the same company, in the same group, and even attended some of the same events. However we never crossed paths.  Fate took us to Atlanta, GA in the summer of 2015 where we were attending a week-long training and happened to be taking the same class. On the first day of class, I was one of the last to arrive and the only open seat was next to Tommy.  We got along right away and talked throughout the entire day.  The following day, I again was one of the last to arrive, however this time no seats were left.  Tommy spotted me and without saying a word to each other, found an empty chair across the room, got the chair and put  it right next to him for me to sit.  And the rest is history…”

The proposal:

“It was Labor Day weekend and one of the first weekends in a while we were home (in Hoboken).  We were on our way to brunch when Tommy detoured me to Castle Point in Steven’s Campus.  Castle Point is a special place for us as we often come here together to relax and enjoy the view of NYC.  As we were approaching the tip of Castle Point, I noticed someone familiar sitting and waiting for us.  That someone was Tommy’s best friend who flew up from Charleston.  Realizing who it was, I was completely caught off guard and then Tommy got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. Following the proposal, our family and close friends were waiting for us nearby for a celebration after.  It was one of the best days of our lives.”

What’s your favorite thing about each other?

Robyn: “It is impossible for me to narrow down my favorite thing about Tommy.  From the beginning, our relationship has been easy and fun which stems from how Tommy is.  He is one of the most caring, loving and intelligent people I have ever met.  He challenges me to be the best person I can be and at the same time makes me feel loved every single day.”

Tommy: “The first thing I noticed about Robyn was her smile.  She has the ability to light up an entire room and I was immediately drawn to that.  I would also say that Robyn brings out the best in me and always encourages me to step out of my comfort zone and try new things.”
