Montgomery County Engagement Photographer | Valley Forge National Park | Becca + Mike

Engagement

Becca and Mike are something else. Becca and I had a long phone consultation and then I got to meet both of them in person. It still didn’t prepare me for the engagement session we had at Valley Forge National Park not long after. We lucked out with some of the most golden light, great temperatures, and amazing colors of the year.

Becca and Mike met at a friend’s party four years ago. Mike recalls that Becca Facebook stalked him and messaged him before they went out on their first real date together.

A few months into dating Becca was invited to a friend’s wedding in Belize. She knew that he was a big deal even then because it’s not just anyone you take with you across the world for a wedding.

She is a petite little thing who is good at shopping (according to Mike) and he’s a big lug who is good at mowing stripes in lawns and watching the Flyers (according to Becca).

These two are snarky and playful and stupidly, utterly in love. What could be better?

Mike proposed one night while they were just sitting there watching TV.

I had such a fun time playing around with them in some of the most incredible light of the year. Then again, I think these two would have made anything look good! I can’t wait to see what they do next May for their wedding at Stokesay Castle.

Engagement Session at Chrissy Field
This past weekend I had an engagement session with a great couple who made the drive from Union City to Chrissy Field for Golden Hour (what photographers refer to as the hour before sunset when everything gets a beautiful golden glow). They have been dating for 7 years (she's a very patient woman). Their first meeting story was great: he threatened to throw her over a balcony at a friend's party. What an introduction. You could say he literally swept her off her feet! (Okay, that was really bad.) It was beautiful out and we made the most of the clear skies to get the Golden Gate Bridge in a few pictures.She's short so I couldn't resist a ...

Sarah knew that the only way to get engagement pictures out of Chuck was if they had them done at Lincoln Financial Field. So that’s exactly what they did. So many more pictures from this extended engagement session (we also went to Love Park and the Art Museum!) coming your way.
