Cassie and Jon’s love story began with a spark of serendipity. Though they attended the same high school, it wasn’t until years later that Jon found Cassie on social media and sent a message that would change both their lives. Five years later, they returned to one of their most meaningful places: the beach at the end of the Oyster River Trail, beside the bench where they shared their first kiss.

Forest Moments

The session began beneath a canopy of towering trees, where the soft light filtered through branches and danced across the forest floor. Cassie and Jon slipped effortlessly into each other’s arms, their laughter echoing through the stillness of the woods. Their warmth and connection were undeniable, every glance and gesture radiating the ease of two people who truly know one another. The deep greens of the forest framed their closeness perfectly, setting a calm and intimate tone for the day.

A Stroll Down Memory Lane

As we followed the trail toward the beach, the evening light softened to a golden glow. This stretch of sand holds a special place in their story. It is the exact spot where they shared their first kiss—an anchor in time that carries their love back to its beginning.

Their first date was just as memorable. They spent an evening at the Sid Williams Theatre watching Rent, only to get locked out after talking too long during intermission. That moment of laughter and unexpected chaos set the tone for their relationship—fun, spontaneous, and full of heart.

The Proposal

Jon’s proposal reflected that same sense of humor and sincerity. During a weekend trip to Vancouver, he planned to propose at the aquarium, one of Cassie’s favorite places. After a mischievous seagull incident during the sea lion show led to an impromptu outfit change, he got down on one knee on the viewing platform by the rehabilitation tank. The timing, the setting, and the laughter made it perfectly them.

Simple Joys and Shared Adventures

Cassie and Jon find happiness in the little things: evening walks, camping trips, bowling nights, and marathon board game sessions. Their easygoing connection and playfulness shone throughout the session, from quiet embraces to bursts of laughter that filled the air. Cassie teases Jon about his knack for mishaps, and he smiles in a way that makes it clear he wouldn’t have it any other way.

Forever by the Water

As the sun dipped below the horizon, the light faded into soft tones of blue and gold. Cassie and Jon stood by the water’s edge, the gentle waves mirroring the calm and comfort of their love. This place, where their story began, became a reminder of how far they have come and how much lies ahead.

Capturing their connection was an honor and a joy. Their session felt like a love letter to their shared past and an ode to the future they are building together. Here’s to every walk, every laugh, and every quiet moment still waiting to be written.
