Ella and Chris. They met over 5 years ago at a little place called UBC. Heard of it? At the time that they started at UBC both Ella and Chris lived in Residence. You can probably guess that they met and fell in love :). After a while, they both went on to work at the university and then they both made a move to SFU for work. Ella has now returned to UBC where she is busy travelling across the country for her job – while Chris has stuck around the SFU campus to hang out with me ;).
Just to demonstrate what a stalker I am, I sometimes see Chris working away at his desk as I rush off to teach a class (days when I am not a photographer we work in the same building at SFU). What I like about Chris is that he is always looking happy while he works. Pretty much always smiling. He doesn’t know that I know that… What I like about Ella is she’s always smiling too. So not only do they have great smiles that they use often, they both have similar work interests. Match made in heaven, or what??
It’s funny because now Chris actually works in the position my husband once worked in at SFU. I just realized that now… (it’s the blonde in me). Anyways, I hadn’t met Chris and Ella before, but SFU is a small world so I knew of them both. I was totally surprised when Ella emailed me about their December 2010 wedding. I am really happy she did and I can’t wait for their winter wedding in Vancouver.
Boda bing boda boom – Here are Ella and Chris engaged and photographed!!! See the slideshow link at the bottom of the image set – the song is a homage to Ella’s busy travel schedule..
