Winter Boston Public Garden Engagement
Boston, Massachusetts | We shipped up to Boston for Courtney and Ryan’s engagement session, and of course it happened to be one of the coldest weekends of the year so far! Thankfully it was 40° the Friday that we were shooting, because the next day was about 10° — and the following weekend was even colder! Courtney and Ryan powered through the cold and did…

Winter Brooklyn Bridge Park Engagement
Brooklyn, New York | January sessions definitely aren’t for the faint of heart, but Katie and Matt totally killed it in the cold!

And for this sweet couple, the beach is truly such a meaningful part of their relationship. Alyssa and Bob first met through work, and bonded over the fact that they both grew up so close…

Fall Manayunk Philadelphia Engagement
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania | This engagement session was my first time shooting in Philly! Sweet Julia and JT live together in the heart of Manayunk, a charming Philadelphia neighborhood full of bars, restaurants, and parks. I had never been before, and I absolutely loved it! Like so many of my couples, Julia & JT are high school sweethearts! As Julia tells it… “We actually had a…
