Remember way back in September when we ran our awesome Archetype Studio<\/a> Engagement Session giveaway? Lots of y\u2019all entered, sharing your beautiful, touching, and in a couple of cases pretty darn hilarious, proposal stories with us. While we usually select our giveaway winners totally randomly, in this case, our staff teamed up with Terilyn Brown of Archetype to pick the entry that moved us most. Our winner? Karlin, who, like her fianc\u00e9 Jeremy, is an active-duty U.S. Marine. The two met, and eventually fell in love, while stationed in Okinawa, Japan, but eventually Jeremy received orders to move back to the states, while Karlin remained in Japan. During his time back in the U.S., Jeremy, head over heels over Karlin, procured the ring he planned to give his girl one day.<\/p>\n

That day eventually came, months later, when Karlin and Jeremy were fatefully reunited in Okinawa (and despite a super-typhoon that hit the area and almost derailed the smitten soldier\u2019s proposal plans!). As Karlin recounts it, after a dinner date and frozen yogurt, he surprised her by asking someone to take their picture. \u201cHe is shy and will never ask a stranger to take a picture of us, much less carry a camera around\u2014that is my job,\u201d Karlin told us. \u201cAs soon as we were getting ready to pose he turns me around and was already down on one knee. I am not really sure what else happened after that.\u201d<\/p>\n

What happened is that Karlin said, \u201cYes.\u201d And entered her story in our contest\u2014and won. And this past month, when she and Jeremy were once again reunited, this time in Houston, the pair posed for Archetype\u2019s camera\u2014and the results, as you can see here, are utterly amazing (they make it hard for us to believe that adorable Jeremy could ever be camera shy!). For us here at the Houston Wedding Blog, it is the perfect convergence of an extraordinarily talented photographer, a beautiful and adoring couple, and a story of determination, devotion and LOVE\u2014of country, and of each other.<\/p>\n
