This Valley Forge National Park engagement session was nothing less than freakin’ perfect!!!Working with adventurous and outgoing couples is my absolute favorite!! These two brought that to the table right away when they starting dancing on the back of a pick up truck in the middle of the woods!!! Because it was right around the holidays, we also did a super cute + cozy indoor Christmas session with candy and hot chocolate!! Matt + Sara were honestly made for each other and it shows it every picture.

You simply can’t go wrong with a Valley Forge snowy engagement session! When we first started the session it was only flurries, but we made the absolute best of it!!! After about like 20 minutes, the entire park was closed because it got so bad so quickly! Before we left the park we snuck in a few more photos in what looked like more snow than the photos in the beginning!! This was actually my first ever snowy session and it definitely did not disappoint! I’ve had the amazing privilege of capturing their engagement session two times and they were seriously so photogenic both times!!! Talk about models!! 

Mike + Kamila

Because I love shooting at sunset on the beaches + at the top of the mountain, this Center City Philadelphia engagement session was different for me but I truly loved it!! It was also the longest engagement session I had ever done!!! We spent all day roaming around Philadelphia to all the best locations! They love the city sooo much so it was really important to them to have it all!! The best was everyone honking at us at City Hill and then not being able to find the famous Addison Street! After finishing the engagement photos in Philadelphia, we made the trek to Wissahickon Valley Park for some more outdoorsy photos because they also love adventure as well! These photos perfectly describe their relationship sooo well! 

Tyler + Shannon

Planned this session in like 24 hours! Michael + Molly were so much fun! We literally were all cracking up the entire time! Covid cancelled their wedding but we made up for it with some really fun and candid photos! 

Michael + Molly

Forever obsessing over the cooler tones in these photos, which goes sooo well with their perfectly planned outfits. They couldn't believe half of the prompts I was giving them, which led to 99% of the natural laughs, haha! 

Kevin + Jess

Squeezed this session in last minute before they left me for North Carolina!!!! We all clicked so well! Lucky me, I get to photograph their big wedding day in October, 2022!!! 

Zac + Gianna

This was their first professional photoshoot as a couple and they did incredible! How fun!!! I always tell my clients that you do not need to be engaged to get cute photos with your person!!! 

Mike + Syd

The sweetest proposal I have ever witnessed! Right before Brett + Sam walked up to the steps, there was a tour guide blocking my view so I panicked just slightly lol!! But it's okay because I creepily made my way to the perfect spot to catch the moment! 

Brett + Sam

I LOVED this session so much!!!! Usually Elfreth's Alley is filled with so many people but we got lucky and it was just the three of us the whole time! They were so happy with their photos that we just booked another session for Spring, 2021!!! 

Michael + Amy

This engagement session in Philadelphia, PA was one for the books because they are actually my best friends!!!! I seriously LOVE when my friends reach out to me to capture their love! Last minute I reached out to them to see if they wanted to switch locations to something that I personally thought would be better for their photos. They were totally up for it, which was awesome!!! This is one of those session where I laughed until I cried because everything was just so much fun! The weather was also perfect in the middle of October so definitely not complaints there!!! After the session was over, we hangout and ate junk food! Talk about an amazing friendship!!!!! 

Travis + Haley

Rahul reached out to me to surprise his girlfriend with a fun photoshoot in Philadelphia - how freakin' cute!!!! They are so in love and it shined in every single photo! 

Rahul + Dhrumi

When these two reached out to me to do their White Cliffs of Conoy engagement session, I was sooo excited! I had always wanted to do a session there! They are so adventurous and I loved every single second of it! They are also troopers! It was so cold and windy but they pushed through and laughed the whole time together! The 2 mile walk back to the car was brutally cold but we cracked jokes and made the best of it! This whole session I felt like we were already best friends! I cannot wait for their wedding October, 2021!!!!! 

Spencer + Britt

This Philadelphia engagement was sooo much fun! We got super lucky and still had snow on the ground from a couple of days prior while still having really warm day! Andorra Meadows in Philadelphia is one of my favorite spots to shoot at in the area! I am just obsessed with the tall dry grass and its natural color!!! When Shelby told me this was the vibe she was going for, I knew this photoshoot was going to be incredible! These two had me laughing the entire time to the point my cheeks hurt!! Every prompt I gave them led them to cracking up and each other, which I loved so much! There is nothing better than a couple who expresses their silly + goofy love so well! It literally shows in every photo!! Shelby even came so prepared with champagne to celebrate their relationship in the middle of the meadows! 

Rob + Shelby

If I told you we did this Andorra Meadows engagement session in 20 minutes, would you believe me?! They were running late because of traffic so we had to make the best of what we had left of sunset and wow it did not disappoint!! 

Dan + Chynna

These two were so dedicated to get in their snowy Philadelphia engagement session! When I say dedicated I mean they drove in a horrible snow storm down the worst turnpike in the area without 4-wheel drive!!! We even had to switch locations because they couldn’t get to the first one we had planned! By the time the session was over, the roads were so much worse too!!!! We danced and ran around in the snow together having the absolute best time! We were all soaked after but it felt amazing considering we hadn’t had snow storm in a couple of years it feels like!! Their spontaneous and adventurous personalities made it so easy and so much fun! 

Scott + Taylor

The sweetest freakin' proposal on the rocky steps in Philadelphia right after a gorgeous snowstorm (finally) hit PA! She was so surprised and all of their friends were there to celebrate the special moment!!!! 

Ryan + Nicole

This La Jolla engagement session meant so much to me because Christina is one of my best friends!! Instead of texting me to tell me Tyler proposed, she just said she needed engagement photos in San Diego as soon as possible! I cried of excitement for the two of them!!! She is actually a huge reason I moved to California in the first place because she convinced me it was the best place in the world haha! She was not wrong at all! We did this session early in the morning at sunrise so it was a bit colder but they got super cozy on the beach and it was adorable!!

Tyler + Christina

Waking up for this sunrise sunset cliffs engagement session was amazing!! I seriously love shooting here so I woke up in the best mood ever!! Leading up to this session I was able to build a great friendship with Allison and I was able to help her pick out her outfits, which I loved so much!! Building that relationship with clients is one of the most important things to me! We took full advantage of blue hour before the sun starting to peak out more! San Diego engagement sessions are my favorite because there are so many awesome locations in the area to choose from! 

Austin + Allison

I am not a city person at all but this Rittenhouse Square Philadelphia engagement session was a lot of fun!!! They were the sweetest couple ever and so comfortable in front of the camera! They’ve been together for 10 years and they finally got engaged over the summer in 2020! Their excitement for their future together as so pure and I loved every second of it!!! 

Joe + Michelle

When these two reached out to me to do their San Diego couples session I was sooo excited because guess what - they are not engaged! They simply wanted to celebrate their love for the heck of it!! There is nothing more special than that! We found the best trails at Torrey Pines State Reserve and took photos on each one to show their love for adventure!! Every time I go to there I am more amazed by its beauty! It’s definitely one of my favorite parks in Southern California! After we finished checking out the trails, we walked down to the beach for some photos by the water! It was a bit windy but what is better than wind blown hair in photos?! 

Vitto + Mariah

Connor + Kaitlyn’s San Diego engagement session was one of my favorites because we were able to squeeze in two of my favorite locations!! We started the engagement session at Balboa Park and then drove over to Coronado Island for beach photos!! We got super lucky because the beach was not crowded at all! It was also actually supposed to rain a lot but it didn’t at all! California never gets rain so we were really nervous it actually was going to be a bad storm haha! We made the best of it with overcast skies! 

Connor + Kaitlyn

Eric + Ellie’s Mount Laguna engagement session was sooo much fun! When I first pulled into the park, I lost service immediately. That obviously is never ideal but since there wasn’t anyone else in the park, it was totally fine! We found each other so quickly at the trailhead! We hiked the 4 miles up to Garnet Peak and I could not believe we were only 1.5 hours from the coast of San Diego!!! The mountains and views were breathtaking! We took all of the photos along the trail and at the peak of the mountain! They were so adventurous and I loved every single second of it!!! We are already planning another couples session at Yosemite National Park (: 

Eric + ellie

Waking up for this sunrise Laguna Beach engagement session was soooo worth it! We went to a beach that not many people know about so there was barely anyone there! The weather was absolutely perfect and so was the lighting!! The first photos are just the two of them roaming around the beach together and having the best time! They were acting as if it were just the two of them on a date, which was super cute!! At the end of the session we had their sweet puppy in a few photos!!! I will love you forever if you bring your dog to your session, haha! Engagement sessions in Laguna Beach are honestly my favorite so this one really hit the jackpot!!! 

Brandon + Aysia

I am obsessed with everything about this sunrise Southern California engagement session! The outfits, the lighting, and the colors!!!! The weather was also so beautiful! Something about waking up before the sun and crowds makes an engagement session in Laguna Beach super special! We also found a beach that only some locals know about so the only people that showed up during the session were a few surfers catching their morning waves! These types of locations are my favorite because it makes it unique! 

Cade + Lex

I barely have any words for this Southern California cliffside engagement session because it was just so dang cute!!! To get to the top of the cliffside, we had to do a crazy hike that I was honestly super nervous about!! I usually am totally fine with any hike but my goodness this one was a challenge!!! We all got a bit muddy and it was super windy but you wouldn’t even tell from the photos because they are simply perfect no matter what prompt they are doing! From the top of the cliff in San Diego, the views were absolutely insane!!! This is a private spot so no one was around making the session that much more intimate!
