Engagement: Danielle & Ryan at Round Hill Park, Elizabeth, PA

Taking this one back to the beautiful fall weather, I met up with Danielle and Ryan at Round Hill Park in Elizabeth, PA. It wasn’t the first time I had met Danielle, though. We used to volunteer together for the local youth retreat that used to be held every summer at Mt. St. Macrina. I was thrilled when she contacted me and told me she was engaged. And Ryan is a total sweetie! He was so great at doing whatever poses I asked. Seeing them together, I felt so lucky that I would be photographing their wedding at the West Overton Barn next fall.

I loved the back of Danielle’s sweater. Super cute!

This next image is one of my favorites. Sunset light adds so much to the mood of an engagement session.

Another of my favorites. Danielle’s smile is so cute and genuine here. I have no idea what Ryan said when I told him to whisper something in her ear. It must have been good!

If you’ve ever been to Round Hill Park, you usually have to wait for the geese to pass before you can park, and they decided to join us while we were getting the chalkboards ready for their save-the-date images.
