Ponce City Market Engagement Shoot :: Shelby + Tim :: with Alex

“Tim proposed at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens on December 15! It had been a long week at work and I was exhausted, but Tim convinced me to go on a date night with him–fancy dress and all. We walked around, enjoying the Christmas lights and music for a while. Eventually, we came to the Great Lawn–we decided to sit and enjoy the scenery. Tim was sitting beside me and started talking about how much he loved me…. honestly I was in a daze! He pulled out the ring and asked me to marry him… I said ‘REALLY?!’ I was so excited!” –Shelby

“We met in a choir. Shelby joined on a whim and I was the director of the choir at the time. She later joined my church choir and we started hanging out socially, while Shelby was scheming to spend more time with me. We’ve been together for 3 years.” –Tim

“We are big foodies–we like to go out to eat and to try new restaurants! We are both have careers in education, so we spend a lot of time grading papers together (super romantic). When we have time, we like to go hiking.” –Shelby

“We are staying connected by undergoing big projects together–including building a new house and making decisions together that will impact the rest of our lives! We are also traveling to the UK and Ireland this summer. We are “doing life” together one step at a time!” –Shelby

Congratulations, Shelby + Tim! xoxo, The OLAS Team
