Philadelphia Engagement Photographer | Kelly Drive | Megan + Brian

Engagement

Megan and Brian met in college at Lehigh University. They were friends first, then physics lab partners, then they started dating. They have been together for six years now and will be getting married this August at the Please Touch Museum.

I met Megan, Brian, and Jake, their 2.5 year old cocker spaniel, along Kelly Drive for their engagement session. As if these three weren’t already charming and incredibly photogenic, we were given the best lighting a photographer could ask for. I’m so glad they picked the perfect day to drive down from their home in Brooklyn.

Megan had scoped out this stunning yellow diamond ring and passed the note to a friend. This information found its way to Brian. The couple traveled to Canada to go camping with her family for a week. She thought it was a little fishy that he wouldn’t let her unpack his suitcase but the days passed and nothing strange happened. It rained on the last day but they went hiking and out for a canoe trip. It was on this final day there that he popped the question.

Megan’s father created a glittery frame (oh, dads and their Pinterest addictions!) to use for the engagement session but it just wasn’t working out. The end result was glitter everywhere. And I mean everywhere!

I just got a sneak peek of the dresses and some of the details going into the big day and I can’t wait to see it all come together. The day can’t get here soon enough! Just wait until you see that blog post!

Philadelphia Engagement Photographer | Chestnut Hill | Riley + Gardner
Riley and Gardener met when they were 6.  They lived close to each other while growing up which is good because they’ve been dealing with a lot of long distance since dating.  He asked her to the junior prom in 10th grade and they’ve been together ever since. It seemed only perfect that we would get together for their engagement session right in their back yard, Wissahickon Park via Chestnut Hill. They have seemingly traveled all over the world together through family vacations in Georgia, Massachusetts, and Colorado as well as Puerto Rico and too many other places for me to remember. The closeness for their first few deca ...

Philadelphia Engagement Photographer | Old City | Laura + Ryan
I am gaga over Laura and Ryan! Their engagement session (though terribly cold) was one of my favorites ever. These two were so kind and genuine and affectionate and simply amazing. The frosty temperatures made it even easier to get them close and cuddly! I chatted with them last June and this was the first time we had ever met. They flew in from their home in Santa Barbara and we played in the great light, wandering around Old City one afternoon.We started the session in Elfreth’s Alley.These two met online a few years ago. For their first date they took a 45 minute drive to pick up a dresser Laura found on Craigslist. Ryan claims her ...
