Victor + LaShanta

September 4th, 2018

Downtown Durham, NC

I’m very excited to share that their engagement photos have also been published by:

How did you two meet?
Victor and I grew up together in a small town. We attended preschool, elementary and high school together.

What makes your relationship special? How did you know your partner was the one?
The history we have and we’re not only soon to be husband and wife, but we’re best friends.

After being together 25+ years and always finding our way back to each other even when we didn’t have it planned, but God had a plan for us that all happened in HIS time.

Tell us about your proposal:
Victor proposed on Christmas morning. He had shared with our daughter the night before. After opening up our gifts he went upstairs and said he had one more thing to show me. He came down showing me his new iPhone. I said that isn’t a gift for me, but behind the iPhone box was the ring. He got down on one knee in front of our two kids and asked me to marry him. It was a very special moment for all of us.

We’re all about the bling! Tell us all about the ring:
Cushion Cut – 1 ct in 14kt White Gold and features a half carat of Round diamonds invisible halo with a round diamond accented prong set shank.

How / why did you choose your engagement session location?
We wanted an urban look and feel and our awesome photographer recommended Downtown Durham.

Anything else you’d like to share?
Victor and I have been through a lot of ups and downs through the years, but the couples that are meant to be, are the ones who go through everything that is meant to tear them apart and come out even stronger.
