Keara & Matt are engaged!

Posted In:06 - Engagements

When Keara contacted me about her and Matt’s wedding, I got really excited. I l-o-v-e receiving emails from brides who have been following my work for a while and who really feel like we already know each other. It was so wonderful to read all about her excitement and thoughts for their wedding! Unfortunately (:() I am already booked for their wedding date next year, but we were still able to get together and shoot their engagement session! I’m so glad it worked out!

Keara and Matt met through some mutual friends, and describe themselves as each other’s very best friend. Matt is training to be an air traffic controller, so they’re not sure exactly where their journey may take them, but I think as long as they’ve got each other they will be fine! They were engaged on the beach (awww) and are in the midst of planning their wedding for next year at The Pennsylvanian! Luckily, we’re facebook friends, so I’m excited to see the photos from their wedding once it’s here!

We shot the first part of their session at Frick Park.
