Oh, the wonderful art of matchmaking! So many relationships and marriages would not exist without the soft nudges and the sharp prods of well-meaning family members and friends who just know when they’ve met the perfect person for a loved one. Sometimes, they are wrong – but other times, they are oh so right!
They couldn’t have been more right in the case of Alia and Aaron, who have a lifetime of love to thank their friends for the beginning of their love journey. Their sweet engagement session was captured by Taun Henderson of Taun Henderson Photography. Be sure to check his blog out.
The Bride: Alia Williams

Occupations: HRIS Consult; Sales Manager
The Engagement Session: 02.12.2012
The Location: Duluth, GA
The Meeting … “Coerced by the willful persistence of college friends who insisted we would be a great match, we exchanged telephone numbers and began blind dating by telephone. The friendship began slowly and progressed into a fond admiration over the next six months. Each day, every conversation brought us closer, opening our eyes to the fact we were no longer merely friends. Once the conversations, text messages, and pictures no longer sufficed, we opted to connect face to face, praying for a true love connection. From the moment we gazed upon one another on that warm summer night in Atlanta, we gained an instant foothold; we never let go and never looked back.”
The Proposal … “While at home enjoying a quiet evening watching football, during halftime Aaron got down on one knee, told me how much he loved me and that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me, he asked if I would marry him!”
The Shoot … “We just wanted something fun & creative & Mr. Henderson worked his magic. We had such a great time with Taun that we can hardly wait for the wedding.”
