Long’s Park Fall Engagement Session

Oct 20, 2020

2020. The one where we got engaged. Of everything that has happened this year, this is a pretty good way to remember it! And for Julie and Cale, that is exactly what they will do! As they rang in the New Year with the rest of the world, Cale got down on one knee and […]

Hibernia County Park Fall Engagement Session

Sep 24, 2020

Where to even beginning! I have known Alex for years! His sister is one of my best friends, so I have grown up over at their house quite often. I honestly consider them all my second family! We have endless memories of dinners together, TV watching, and constant laughter! I truly love them! I have […]

Elegant Engagement Session at the National Memorial Arch in Valley Forge

Sep 22, 2020

National Memorial Arch. AKA, the perfect backdrop! As an engagement session slowly draws near, I reach out to my couples to see if they have a location in mind. Typically, I am all about a spot that it unique to them. One that has played a major role in their relationship or just describes them […]

Boxer Loving Engagement Session at Overlook Park in Lancaster, PA

Sep 16, 2020

Joyful. Lighthearted. Adventurous. Puppy lovers. These are just a few of the traits that most #hmpcouples have! Add in a little side of goofiness to this list, and it perfectly describes Leann and Mike! I know I say it all the time, but I literally was nonstop laughing this entire session with these two! I […]

Downtown Pittsburgh Engagement Session

Sep 15, 2020

Pittsburgh. The city of bridges. Steeler Nation. Home of Primanti Brothers. Steel City. And also the place where Allison and Patrick met. What’s not to love about this amazing city? Or this amazing couple! I’m so happy how Allison and Patrick came into my life! If you remember a couple months back, I did an […]

Overlook Park Summer Engagement Session

Aug 25, 2020

For each of my couples, I send over a relationship questionnaire pretty soon after they book with me. It is a fun way for them to relive their memories from their dating years, why they love each other, and look forward to their future together. But I also love reading through their answers. It really […]

Lancaster County Park Summer Engagement Session

Aug 12, 2020

They sat along the soft grass. The sun setting behind them, shining light through the tree branches at Lancaster County Park. Only the faint sound of baseball players hollering in the background. And then Gino began to play his guitar. A beautiful tune came from the instrument. Kelsey instantly smiled. As if this song had […]

Cloudy Summer Field Engagement Session at Overlook Park, PA

Jul 17, 2020

Right as we got into the car to head to the session, we could start to see the clouds rolling in. Then came the small droplets of rain. And just as we reached the parking lot, the skies opened up and started dumping. Puddles began forming all around. Although the forecast said it would stop […]

Breezy Sunset Engagement Session at the Vineyards at Hershey, Pennsylvania

Mar 19, 2020

Laughter. Confidence. Contentment. These are the three words that instantly come to mind when I think about my session with Jodi and Matt. Throughout the entire session, they were so comfortable in who they were, as a couple and also individually. It was so refreshing to watch them truly be themselves both off camera, when […]
