When I first spoke to Brittany about Chuck, her joy was contagious—you could hear her smile through the phone. She couldn’t stop gushing about how incredible her fiancé is and why she was so excited to marry him. I tell ya, by the time we hung up, I was ready to meet Chuck myself! Chuck is what you’d call a man’s man, old school, with a tough exterior but an undeniably soft heart. Chuck's just a good guy. 

When we finally met at the Columbus Museum of Art for their engagement shoot, I got to witness their dynamic firsthand and let me tell you; I found myself smiling more than once. As Chuck said, “They can’t get enough of each other.” It was like watching two high school sweethearts caught in a bubble of playful banter only they understand as they playfully wrestle. They teased and poked at each other, effortlessly drawing out smiles and laughter, entirely in tune.

Chuck told me that it’s been this way from the very beginning. He knew Brittany was his forever person after just a few dates. To prove his seriousness, he gave her the keys to his home on their third date—talk about confidence! Watching them together, it’s clear they’ve built a love filled with trust, joy, and a lifetime of inside jokes. This is the kind of love story that falls off the page with a type of energy that is enthusiastic and genuine to all those lucky enough to witness it.
