This athletic pair and I met up at Crystal Lake Park in Urbana where they had their first date back about a year and a half ago.  Stephen and Lauren are an adorable couple that share lots of common interests such as working out, exploring, and tattoos.  Their matching tattoos are in each others handwriting and one says I love you in English, the other in Italian. They live in Urbana but are planning to get married up further north towards Lauren’s hometown.  I had a blast adventuring in the park with them and we were so happy to have avoided the predicted rain, wind, and humidity.   These photos seem like a perfect representation of this couple and their giddiness towards each other. Thank you Stephen and Lauren for allowing me to photograph the two of you!
