They both felt a <strong>spark <\/strong>as they talked to each other&#8230;. and then when they returned to their hometowns, Karen &#8216;<em>myspaced<\/em>&#8216; Mick (<em>it was cool back then<\/em>). As they sent messages back and forth, their friendship began to blossom and they became more and more interested in each other.\u00a0 By the time they met again, they had developed crushes on each other, and now, almost 6 years later, they&#8217;re <strong>engaged!!! <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mick and Karen are both CPA&#8217;s with such joyful personalities. I couldn&#8217;t help but smile while processing their photos. Their sense of happiness, and close connection with each other, jumps out of every picture.\u00a0 We wanted to incorporate their professional lifestyle into these photos, as well as their casual, fun personalities.\u00a0 Who said CPA&#8217;s can&#8217;t have fun?!<\/p>\n<p>After almost 4 years of being in a long distance relationship, Mick and Karen are one step closer to being married!! There&#8217;s something special to be said about building a relationship slowly, after all, the most wondrous of creations aren&#8217;t built in an instant, but rather over <em>time<\/em>. Mick and Karen&#8217;s relationship is the same way. After many visits and countless hours together, they have become SO <em>head-over-heals <\/em>that even <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">long-distance can&#8217;t stop them<\/span>!\u00a0 You guys are awesome!! You have such amazing energy together, and I&#8217;m so happy for you! Long distance can be a challenge, but you guys were strong and overcame those hurdles thereby making your relationship so much stronger.<\/p>\n<p>Alrighty, well, here are their engagement photos taken at Pike Place Market in Seattle. We had an awesome time walking around downtown Seattle, through Post Alley, and along the waterfront.<\/p>\n<p>Two young professionals in love!<\/p>\n<p><a
