Philadelphia engagement photographer | Old City | Allison + Craig

Engagement

Allison and Craig got together after many, many months of playing Quizzo on opposing teams at a local bar.  Craig’s team was better but that’s neither here nor there.

What matters is that one night their Quizzo host invited them out to a concert, they both went, and things haven’t quite been the same since.  We walked around their neighborhood in Philly’s gorgeous Old City for their engagement session.

Allison works long hours at the hospital and Craig can walk to work from their home in Old City.  When they’re not planning a wedding within 6 months, they roadtrip, tailgate, watch football, and take care of a particular little furball.

Zelda is a 4 year old miniature Schnauzer who was originally named Muffintop (ouch).  She is more energetic that you can imagine and is frequently guilty of walk-by lickings.  (No, seriously, they hold Zelda to the side whenever someone passed by so that the unsuspecting victim doesn’t end up with a wet ankle.)

We got some great porch access at their classically Philadelphia brick home.

In the Poconos, there is a waterfall a small hike from the road.  They had visited it a few times and it was there in May that Craig popped the question.

I will be seeing them very soon for their wedding next month at Valley Green Inn.  I can’t wait!

They try to be outdoors together as much as possible, hiking and vitising the beach since they live right by it. We ...

30th Street Station in Philly is just gorgeous. I absolutely adore the architecture and it's just neat to photograph at a train station.Michelle and Alastair found me through some strange connections (my friend Martha who lives in Seattle who I met at photography school in Montana referred me to Michelle and Alastair who live in San Francisco but met Martha and her husband, Jason, in Ithaca). Despite their wedding being in New York, Michelle and Alastair happened to be in Philadelphia for Michelle's bridal shower. Need a flow chart? I do.Regardless… I met with the adorable Michelle and Alastair for a lovely (albeit rainy) engagement sess ...
