When my brilliant former student Madilyn asked if I would do her engagement session at my alma mater, of course my answer was emphatically, "Yes!" Much like her answer to Tim's proposal! Visiting TC was like returning home for me. I'm pretty sure it's been at least six or so years since I've set foot on campus, so I was experiencing the wonder of Tennessee's oldest college as if it were my first time all over again. Things have changed, but much has stayed exactly as I remembered. I had forgotten, however, how magical the library was. During my years at TC, the library underwent a huge addition, and the upgraded model is simply beautiful and truly the heart of the small campus. I spent many days, especially in the last couple of years, locked away in this home-away-from-home of mine, and as I stated to Madilyn, I suppose this is where my love of libraries really began.
Coincidentally, this same library was exactly where Madilyn and Tim's relationship began. Their story is sweet and totally romantic, and they casually re-lived meeting for the first time in one of the library's classrooms, which is exactly where Tim proposed. Tim is thoughtful with a great sense of humor; he kept both Madilyn and me laughing the entire session. And Madilyn, well, she is still that reserved, naturally beautiful young lady who is obviously armed with an incredible intellect. Both are quick-witted, driven, and focused on the next phase of their lives together. Such a great match!
Thanks to Madilyn and Tim for allowing me the opportunity to experience Tusculum again and for trusting me to document this special time in their lives. I truly wish them all the happiness that life has to offer them, and I trust that everyone will join me in congratulating them on their engagement!
