Scroll down to read Hunter and Scott’s sweet Q/As and keep scrolling to see a preview of their dreamy session!

How did you two meet, and what was your first impression of each other?

“We met when Scott worked at a gay bar named Number Nine. I (Hunter) knew the I wanted to get to know him better but I had to do my investigating first, months later we began talking and the rest is history from there.

I (Scott) got to meet Hunter during the pandemic setting when fewer people meant stronger more intimate connections and fell for him right away.”

What was the moment that made you realize you wanted to spend the rest of your lives together?

Scott: “Initially it was when he broke one of my nice wine glasses and I didn’t get mad, but it was really when we met each other’s families in person and saw how well we integrated into each others lives and how loved and happy we felt.”

Hunter: “Like Scott said, family is something that is super important to both of us. The first time that Scott and I went to visit my family in Indiana, everybody fell in love with him. Knowing how much my family also loved him and could see how happy he made me, was the first moment that I knew I would be spending the rest of my life with him.”

What have you two been up to?

“We just finishing moving from our one bedroom apartment in downtown DC to a 4 bedroom house in the suburbs of DC! We finally have the dream yard our dogs deserve, with enough room for a hot tub for us!”

Can you recall a funny story from your early dating days that still makes you laugh today?

“One of the first few times Hunter’s mom visited us in DC, she started to pretend to push Scott into the reflecting pool while walking around the monuments. It freaked Scott out, but also made him know he was finally apart of the family. We even referred back to the memory during our engagement shoot when Scott pretended to fake push Hunter into a pond.”

What’s the most amusing or surprising similarity or coincidence you discovered about each other after getting to know each other better?

“While growing up in very different places, we always have similar if not identical views and opinions allowing us to almost always be on the same page or train of thought without even having to say anything. We are also both incredibly competitive and make an almost undefinable duo when it comes to video games (just ask Bret and Brandie about Mario Kart).”
