Having a revelation as I post these that I am so blessed with the sweetest couples and most gorgeous wedding venues in Pennsylvania. Being able to honor and celebrate so many amazing couples is something I never take for granted. Whether it’s Central PA or far beyond, I am always thankful to capture love stories of all kind. If you know me, you know how much I am such a sucker for these golden hour sessions, and Hannah + Joey’s engagement session is pulling on my heartstrings!

When two became three, and added four paws 🐾
As soon as Alyssa posted about their newest addition, Tucker, to their family… I knew it was the perfect memory to capture his puppy love and their growing family! 🫶🏼

The Sharayko’s ✨✨✨
There truly is only one word I can use to describe Allena + Nick’s wedding day. Incredible. After seeing rain in the forecast and dealing with some unexpected storms before the ceremony, the clouds parted just in time for a perfect, intimate celebration that was shared amongst Allena + Nick’s closest friends and family. And I can’t think of a better way to show of their day then with the amazing golden hour portraits we snagged to end off the night! 🌿

Baking Baby Engle! 🌿🍼
This session was extra special and will be one I hold close to my heart for a long time. As some of you know brit is one of my very first, if not the first, of my childhood best friends. Growing up, we lived just houses away, and being with each other almost every weekend or week night we could after school. And yes, we were those girls who made up dances to show our parents to convince them to let us have a sleepover on a school night… But as time passed, we never strayed or lost touch, but grew closer and started creating new memories through girls vacation trips, and even through the photography industry with having Brittany by my side for long car rides and wedding days. (Shoutout Brittany for being the best second shooter on this side of the Mississippi!!!)

And as I sit here writing this post, I realize how fast time has gone, and although we aren’t those little girls we once were, now I am watching her become an even more amazing and beautiful woman that I always knew she was. And this time, I have double the love to give as she embarks on this chapter of motherhood, and parenthood with Phil. I am so blessed to have such a special friendship with these two lovely humans, and being asked to photograph their special moment to share with the world. I think I am living on cloud nine right now and I’m not ready to give it up just yet. I cannot wait for baby’s arrival and to shower my new bestie with so much lovin’!🤍✨

The dreamiest creekside engagement session 🌼🦦
When Lindsey came to me with the idea for hopping into the water for hers and Robbie’s engagement session, I was all in! Coming full circle back to one of the places they had one of their first dates, made for a very special session. They even braved the cold to get some incredible shots in the water, which made this session absolutely one for the books! 🩵
