Mike + Lenna | Baby Bump
I met Lenna in college while taking the Creative Advertising course at Seneca. I remember sitting near her in a class thinking she was the bomb-diggity! Little did I know I would be getting to share so many of her amazing life stories. We created an awesome bond in school which consisted of loving Justin Beiber (pre-thug life), staying up really late and sleeping in! We have had some amazing memories and currently keep in touch with three other amazing women we also took the program with and we make up CLLAM! I am so thankful for these women, they were an incredible support in school when I lost my grandparents and my aunt and never missed a beat, always stepping in to help me out. Lenna's wedding was probably one of my favourite weddings I've ever attended, not only was it just extravagantly beautiful, but it consisted of a very late night Lenna, calling my love and boyfriend Geoff, Rob ALL NIGHT, which we still laugh at! I cried as she walked down the aisle, said I do, and had her first dance with her HIGH SCHOOL sweetheart Mike. I have watched Mike and Lenna's surprise same day edit from Honey and Dear (my most favourite videographers) probably a million times, if your up for romance, choreographed dancing and love check it out here. Now on to Mike...oh where to start?! I had been hearing stories about Mike since I first met Lenna, I remember her giving a presentation in school on why long distance relationships did work (our curriculum wasn't ridiculous it was for a presenting class and you could pick anything). I loved to hear stories of their relationship, I loved when she got so excited when he'd call her, I loved hearing them interact calling each other "bud" and "buddy" like true best friends. Mike was everything I expected and more! Now I can brag about Mike, well not only does he love Lenna to the moon and back which makes him great, he's also a phenomenal hockey player. Last year you could find many articles and news pieces written about Mike... "The Calder Cup was awarded to Norfolk's Captain Mike Angelidis by President of the AHL David Andrews." And one of my favourite Mike memories would probably be at his wedding when he told the entire room that his number one dream wasn't to make it to the NHL but to marry Lenna that night (psst he has made it to the NHL). So when I found out that Lenna was expecting, I was ecstatic! I went to her Facebook everyday in hopes that someone had posted a photo of her baby bump since they were living in NY a the time...BUT NOTHING! So I am sure you can imagine that I not only insisted I JUMPED at the opportunity to take photos of the expecting couple. I cannot wait to meet baby Santana and I hope I'll have one more life story to share with my favourite couple! So without further ado... Mike + Lenna
