A Romantic Summer Engagement at Valley Forge | Chaz & Amanda

When I first received Amanda’s e-mail, the first thing that caught my eye was the ‘About the Couple’ section. She exclaimed, “He’s the love of my life!”. Before meeting Amanda I knew we would work perfectly together. Although I love taking photos of people and documenting their stories, there is nothing I enjoy more than documenting two people who are madly and deeply in love with each other. THAT right there is my favorite part of being a photographer!

Amanda is the kind of girl who loves to dress up but knows how to let go and have fun —  I’m sure it’s one of the many reasons why Chaz loves Amanda. While strolling through the fields of Valley Forge park, Chaz did the fiancé duty of dressing up and looking handsome for his soon to be wife. At first he thought it was silly, but very quickly he started to enjoy himself and I had the chance to see into the love that Amanda and Chaz shared.

There are SO many favorites from their engagement session. Amanda wanted a romantic scene with a touch of fun. At the start of the session we strolled through the beautiful fields of Valley Forge park where she brought her blue bicycle and a basket full of flowers. After basking in the evening sun, we drove to their house where the couple did what they do best, be cute and have fun… with a paint fight!

Thank you for visiting!

I am so glad you came across my journal! I believe in creating images that will always fill your heart with joy. Every flower, every detail, and every person deserves to be photographed with just as much intention as it was crafted to be.
