Instead Of Taking Boring Engagement Pics, This Couple Decided To Take It To The Next Level
Engagement photos are now firmly a thing. Couples often go for a beautiful location, cheesy smiles and props that show off their unique style and interests. However this cute couple, Jackie Nguyen and Nate Huntley from Queens, New York, decided to step it up a notch.
Along with their photographer friend Isaac James, they decided to expand the entire engagement photoshoot concept into something much bigger. Over a period of months, the couple, who are both actors, shot a series of engagement snaps that sums them up as a couple just perfectly, dressing up as pop-culture power duos. “Nate and I are huge nerds,” Jackie told HuffPost. “We are completely obsessed with the majority of couples we paid tribute to and have a genuine love for being a bit kooky.”
Being in the entertainment industry certainly helped their project, with friends helping out with some props and costumes. However, a lot of time was also spent at the thrift store, trying to get the looks just right. Looks to us like it was time well spent!
Next up for the couple is the big day. We can only imagine what they have planned, but we know for sure that it won’t be your average wedding. “We have the most outlandish and fun things planned for the wedding, some of which are surprises that we can’t reveal.“ Jackie explained. “What we can say is that it is a Chex Mix of Willy Wonka meets Christmas meets a magical carnival.”
OK then! Scroll down below to check out Jackie and Nate’s pics, and let us know what you think in the comments!

Thanks Shub-Niggurath they didn't made the John & Yoko's naked.... that sad rear makes me sad too...
She's clearly role-playing Hermione! Not Harry Potter! (note lack of glasses and scar)
It's great that they had fun dressing up and taking pictures, but I don't fully grasp the concept "engagement photoshoot". Is that a thing?
It looks like they had a lot of fun with this. Nate Huntley would be a great name for an action hero.
I read it as Cho and Harry Potter, and I was like I didn't know Harry Potter has a hammer...
You keep getting downvoted for being right, I don't understand it. This post is cringe-inducing to say the least.
Load More Replies... So very good! I especially loved the John & Yoko ones because they really captured their vibe...
