We could see Wendy’s hand waving excitedly through the driver-side window as she and Josh pulled into the parking lot at Boar’s Head Resort here in Charlottesville. Out of the car appeared Wendy, Josh, and their two precious dachshunds! These shy little beans were so calm and quiet – thanks to a recent teeth-removal surgery, one even had her little tongue hanging out of the side of her mouth! As we got to know more about Wendy and Josh, we learned so much more about their character from their choice of dog. Wendy and Josh adopted their first puppy, Rosie, completely unaware that it was from a puppy mill! Having learned that, they returned to rescue her mom, Lillian, who was in a bad state. Wendy told us about the surgeries that Lillian needed when she was rescued and we could tell the love and care that they were giving these wonderful little pups!

Wendy and Josh are not only caring, these two are determined! These students are studying some challenging subjects – Josh is studying cybersecurity and Wendy is applying to medical schools! They are managing a tricky balance of school, work, and family (not to mention wedding planning), but somehow we know that these two will be able to get through anything together.

Wendy + Josh,

We hope you don’t mind that we just used your blog to low-key brag about you two! You guys are so humble and kind and we wanted to share a little bit of what we saw of your hearts during your engagement session. We hope that these images serve as a good reminder of your love, and get you even more excited for your wedding next September! I’m sure we’ll be in touch soon!

With love,
Sarah + Hunter
