I loved spending the evening with these two a few weeks ago at McConnell's Mill and Grove City College (definitely a popular place for photos this fall, and I love it)! They were so natural in front of the camera. Check out a few of my favorite photos from their session below! Congratulations again on your engagement, Laura and Jake!

I really admire these two. The day of their engagement session, there was a 15% chance of rain. Usually, 15% doesn't worry me, and typically passes over the area quickly. Well, during Kayla and Michael's shoot, it rained the entire time (except for the first part, while we were shooting inside! ;) ). I admire these two for their willingness to embrace the rain and still have their garden coffee date regardless of the stormy skies looming above them and the pouring rain around them, and for their positivity throughout the entire session! Because of their good attitudes (and willingness to try out my crazy ideas!), we were able to come up with some truly beautiful, unique images, and had a lot of fun in the process!
In addition to their rainy coffee date, we also had the opportunity to visit the school where Kayla and Michael first met, and started dating! Such a fun personal detail to include.
Thank you for your positivity and willingness to push through the rain, Kayla and Michael! It says so much about the two of you and the foundation you're building your marriage upon. We can't wait for the wedding!
These two high school sweethearts chose one of my favorite spots for their engagement photos - Hartwood Acres Mansion! And they even brought their dog along for a couple of shots. Thanks for a great time, Jackie and Mike! Congratulations again on your engagement!
This was my first time ever stepping foot on to Grove City College's campus... and oh my, is it beautiful! Rachel and Paul met at the Grove, so it was only fitting that we went back to some of the most scenic areas for their engagement photos. From the clock tower, to Rainbow Bridge, to all of the beautiful doors and archways adorning the campus, this session is one for the books! Thank you, Rachel and Paul, for entertaining all of my crazy ideas (like jumping into a river) and for sprinting for that golden sunlight! So. Worth. It. Congratulations again, you two! Can't wait for the wedding!!
What a sweet love these two have! We met up with Gail and Jake for their engagement session a few weeks ago at North Park. They were willing to sit in weeds, climb fences, and lay on the ground just to get some awesome photos (you guys are troopers!!). Though, we did end the session with a cup of raspberry twist ice cream, which hopefully made up for all of the crazy locations ;)
Fun random fact about these two: Jake grows sunflowers in his yard for Gail, hence the sunflower used in a few of the photos below. They also plan on having sunflowers at their wedding! I love those sweet little details. Congratulations again to an incredibly sweet couple!
These two self-proclaimed foodies opted to have their engagement session somewhere near and dear to their heart - Fisher's Bar & Grill in Zelienople, PA (who opened their doors just for us on a day they weren't even open - you guys are awesome!). After a couple of beers and lots of laughs & stories, we picked up Duncan (their pup) headed out to an old barn built in the 1800's and then over to Zelienople Community Park. I am so excited to share this story - their love shines through every single photo!
We loved photographing these two college sweethearts where they first met, at Geneva College in Beaver Falls, PA! We've known these two for a couple of years now, and are so excited to see them tie the knot and officially begin their lives together. Congratulations on your engagement, Kim + Darren!
Becca + Dave's Northmoreland Park engagement session took place on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Even though it took place in November, we were still able to find some gorgeous fall color! Congratulations again to these two sweet people!
Trina and Jeff incorporated so many pieces of who they are into in this shoot. We started off taking photos at Grace Community Church in Cranberry Township, where they both first met. They incorporated a bag of Doritos as an inside joke. And then we finished off at the Haine Fire Department, where Jeff has volunteered for a number of years. These two are awesome - enjoy some of my favorites from their session!
The talented Christa (of Christa Lee Photography) and her husband Evan had a gorgeous fall day for their family session (Christa + Evan + two pups!) at Mingo Creek Park. These two met while they were both working at Kennywood's Fright Night (one of my favorite couple stories ever!). Check out some photos below from their session!
