Jasmin learned that finding love at college wasn’t just for students when she met Ricardo at Emory University. After sending him a few work related emails, she decided to be more aggressive if she wanted more than a quick chat at the water cooler. She decided to have a colleague introduce the two in person and was able to set up a lunch date. In the 10 months that followed Ricardo knew she was the one, he fell in love with both Jasmin and her young daughter. As they surveyed their newly purchased home the groom dropped down to his knees and asked her to build their lives together, they eloped soon after and now are looking forward to celebrating with their family and friends. They selected Rich Rouleau of Concept-A Photography for their shoot; he transported the couple into the Harlem Renaissance in this enchanting e-session. We know their summer wedding will be something to remember. Good luck on your big day!

The Engagement Session
We love the glamour and regalia of the Harlem Renaissance and the Old South. We wanted to marry both of those eras into our photo shoot. We went to Savannah to capture the charm of the South and it is one of our favorite places to go. Our photographer really understood what we wanted and the captured it perfectly. Thank you, Rich!
Looking Forward To…
We both never got the chance to tell the world what our union means to us. We just eloped and that was it. We are looking to this moment– to celebrate us, our kids, and our life. Despite it all, we are here and we grateful to be able to celebrate with those we love and cherish.
Wedding Planning is Tough…
It has been a breeze for us, honestly. The day we eloped, we knew we were going to throw a wedding on our 5th year anniversary. We had picked out a venue, did all the research etc… so I think we have not felt the stress of it. Check back with us in August 2014!! :)
