A State College, Pennsylvania engagement on a perfect spring evening. After a chilly spring, it was a GLORIOUS evening for a State College, Pennsylvania engagement session. The golden sun came out to warm us at just the right times. Freshly cut grass and springtime blooms scented the air. As we walked along the path through […]

Colyer Lake, Pennsylvania. A pristine place for an engagement session. What a GORGEOUS spot, and to think it was almost lost several years ago due to expensive dam repairs (if history interests you, you can read more about the history of Colyer Lake here).

Adventure awaits. Pulling into Gillbrook Farms on Saturday, Adam and I knew that’s what the day would hold. One, because Craig and Chelsea had put up a sign that told us so, and two, because they both have adventurous spirits. The barn was full of mementos from their lives: Suitcases stocked with Penguins and Eagles […]

There was flour EVERYWHERE. Even on little Zuzu the Bernese’s wet puppy nose. By the time Dan and Marie were finished with their engagement session, flour clung to the beam in the ceiling and we were slipping in it. But oh man, the results were good, and I’m not just talking about the pizza. This […]

He walked through the doors of her office. She just happened to be manning the front desk that day. They exchanged smiles as Chelsea escorted Craig and his boss to her employer’s office.
