I’ve known Colleen for years and within minutes of meeting her fiancé Phil – I realized why these two are destined to be together. Underneath their bubbling personalities and genuine excitement, lies two people who are unconditionally in love with one another. They are best friends. Inseparable soul mates.
And photographing them made it even more apparent how perfect they are as a pair! Colleen laughs constantly when she is around Phil and with his arms wrapped around her, a genuine smile spreads across her face! We wandered around the trails and hidden pathways of Patapsco Valley State Park for their engagement session, just as the trees began to turn on a perfect autumn afternoon! It was such a fun session and I am so excited to be featuring them on the blog today!
I can’t wait to photograph your wedding next year! Congratulations Lovebirds!
Wow!! Love these!! My fav is the second one in the water, but the two with leaves are amazing as well!!
Gorgeous! Love this shoot! 🙂
This is so different from your DTA sessions, I love it! Especially the last few in the water. The vertical where he’s lifting her up is my favorite 🙂
