While I bask in the beauty and love that is our newest daughter Gabby, I’m also trying hard to catch up on blogging weddings and sessions from last year. As mentioned in my previous post, we have a few of them coming your way, so without much ado here are Sarah and Will. I had so much fun exploring two separate locations in Bucks County with them for their engagement session last summer. These places really spoke to me because their simplicity and the gorgeous light allowed us to focus solely on capturing them as they are, in their purest selves and their love for each other. I’m so excited for their upcoming wedding this July at the gorgeous Blue Mountain Resort in the Poconos.
Photos below are a mix of film and digital. Have I mentioned how much I’m loving shooting film again? While weddings are still mostly all digital, I’ve decided to start incorporating film more and more into my engagement and family sessions. If you absolutely love the look of film and would love an all film session, let me know and we’ll make it happen… 🙂
Our first scheduled session above happened on one of the hottest days last summer, so we decided to split things up and come back another day to finish them. It actually worked out perfectly as it also allowed Sarah to do a change of clothing and hair style. Isn’t she gorgeous by the way???

As many of you already know I recently had a baby girl, so I went on a bit of hiatus for the last few months of 2016 and am slowly getting back into the routine of things. We have a lot of weddings and engagements coming to the blog in the next few months as well as lifestyle sessions so stay tuned… 🙂
To start things off, this gorgeous couple here is my very own little brother and his beautiful fiance who will be tying the knot in April. I was so honored when they asked me to capture their engagement photos last summer at the Valley Forge Park.
As I’m starting to incorporate film more and more into my work, I used Fuji 400h on Pentax 645NII along my main digital camera for this session.

I knew immediately when I first met Cait & Jason that we would hit it off… two amazing souls from the midwest, who are planning a truly awesome Philadelphia wedding for next year… seriously I’m so stoked and excited for their wedding, although in all fairness I say that about all my weddings, because without a doubt I have THE best couples… 🙂
We got to know each other a lot better through a fun and relaxed engagement session. They chose their own neighborhood in Manayunk for it and I couldn’t be happier. Manayunk is quite amazing with everything from amazing greenery, an adorable main street and the towpath near the canal.

Jacky and John are seriously one of the sweetest and funnest couples I’ve met. As a photographer and especially a photojournalistic photographer I try not to get caught up in the moment but be ready to capture everything. Let’s just say these two and especially John did not make my job easy as I couldn’t stop laughing the entire time…
Needless to say I had such a great time exploring around the Deception Pass State Park with Jaclyn and John for their engagement session. From an amazing bridge, to forests and gorgeous beaches I could seriously spend a few days here and can’t wait to return and further explore this amazing park…

Brittney and Aaron’s engagement session took us to Seattle’s Discovery Park. If you’ve never been there before you’re in for a real treat. This park has everything to offer from amazing fields with tall grasses to a beautiful beach with driftwood, tall cliffs and even a lighthouse at the end of it. Combine those with gorgeous evening light and an incredibly sweet couple and I have to say that Discovery Park has become one of my favorite spots for photography.
