I told Hunter that there was something special about the Crim Dell Bridge at William & Mary, but I couldn’t quite remember what. It was something like: if a couple kissed at the top, they would have to push each other off the bridge if they ever broke up… I think… Hunter did not believe me. That is, until Margaret and Ben clarified: tradition goes, if a couple holds hands as they walk over, they will be together forever! If they break up, someone gets pushed off! Luckily, with an engagement ring on Margaret’s left hand and a wedding date in the calendar, we weren’t worried about anyone going for a swim that day!

Having met just two weeks after starting their undergrad at the US’s second oldest university, Margaret and Ben have only ever known the campus together. This made it the perfect choice for their engagement session last week! We got to know more about them as well as their time at William & Mary and beyond. With both of them in grad school, there is so much to look forward to. Their wedding, their hopeful 2023 graduations, and (maybe) the conversion of Ben into a country music fan!

Margaret + Ben,

We loved getting to know you both in the place where your relationship began — and thrived! We hope that these photos will forever remind you of the place you first fell in love! We cannot wait for your wedding next fall, and are looking forward to seeing how your relationship continues to grow beyond Williamsburg!

With love,
Sarah + Hunter
