Adventuring with the Coll’s
Travel couple gets engaged on the epic trip of a lifetime in India
As photographers, India and Nepal has been a place that we have wanted to adventure together for a while. From the vibrant colors to the beautiful people, there is an opportunity for an incredible image every where you turn. Edward is also a lonnng time lover (slightly obsessed) of Indiana Jones and Krystle is a lover (also slightly obsessed) of playing dress up so when we were checking out the places we would visit, we knew planning a Indiana Jones themed shoot was a MUST! We chose to mock the scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark where Marion wore the gorgeous white dress! Little did Krystle know, Edward was planning the most amazing proposal! It was a 120 degrees that day so all of this almost didn’t happen. It was hard to breathe in that air, let alone walk. But we knew we only had one day left in this area and we really wanted these photos so we pulled through. Edward filmed the whole thing on his iPhone so it’s hard to hear our words unless you really listen close but the moral of the story is that we are engaged and almost officially The Coll’s!!!! As hard as it is to top a moment like that, every day still got better and better! Nepal was incredible, so lush and full of life. The connection to the Buddhist practice is overwhelming amazing. When we arrived in Kathmandu we encountered our first real rain storm which flooded what we later named sewer alley because of the putrid smell that came after the storm. Don’t worry though, the smells only last for a second and then you are welcomed with the lovely smell of Nag Champa. Overall it was a badass adventure! ✌🏻
