Ridley Creek Engagement Session | Skylar and Corey

Published on January 28, 2019January 28, 2019 by allieskylarphotography@gmail.comLeave a comment

Fall engagement sessions at Ridley Creek State park are always some of my favorites—- especially when it’s the dead of winter and I’m blogging them! Remember when there were leaves on the trees? And flowers on the bushes? And we couldn’t see our breath? Yeah… the good old days.

Skylar and Corey traveled FAR for their engagement session, and were blessed with one of the nicest days I can remember. As we walked around Hunting Hill mansion at Ridley Creek, I couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed by how everything had lined up properly. Great weather, check. Beautiful light, check. A couple who seemed like old friends, check. It was so hard to narrow down photos for this blog post, because I feel attached to every one!

I cannot wait for this amazing wedding this year!!

elfreth alley philadelphia engagement session

Engagement sessions in Philadelphia are some of my favorites. Within a stones throw, you are bound to find an amazing location. There is old city, Rittenhouse Square, Elfreth Alley… and don’t forget about the Art Museum area! There is no shortage of inspiration or people (people who like to stare and congratulate you while getting your photos taken).

Gabriella and Jack were set on having their engagement session start at Elfreth Alley. AS the nations oldest continually inhabited street, it’s a glimpse into what Philadelphia used to be, nestled among busy streets and sky scrapers.

This particular autumn evening was incredibly brisk and windy, and kept us all on our toes! Gabby and Jack soon became used to celebratory shouts from passersby, and the occasional group of men wearing togas and wedding dresses (hello all of the universities in center city), and spent much of their session laughing and shivering. I am so thankful I am able to capture their wedding next year!

Bloomsburg Wedding Photography | Ginny and John | Silver Moon Banquet Hall Wedding

bride and groom embrace after being married in bloomsburg PA

When I walked into St Paul’s Episcopal Church in Bloomsburg, PA, on the day of Ginny and John’s fall wedding, I could have cried happy tears. Ginny had been telling me about the vision for her wedding day, but seeing it all come together was overwhelming! Mountain Laurel was draped from the sanctuary rafters, candles lines the aisle, and members of the wedding party were adorned in soft shades of creams and blue/greens. As Ginny rounded the corner and stood in the aisle facing John, their radiant smiles warmed the room and everyone in it. There were tears, laughter, and much love to go around.

After vows were exchanged, Ginny, John, their family and friends celebrated the night away at the Silver Moon Banquet Hall in Lewisburg. It is certainly not a day I will soon forget and I am so excited to wrap up this gallery and send it on its way!

In the midst of a very rainy wedding season, Morgan and Devin were blessed with beautiful sunshine and clear skies on their wedding day at Frosty Valley Country Club in Danville, PA. With just a touch of a breeze to give life to Morgan’s veil, the day was absolutely perfect!

Arriving at Morgan’s family home on the morning of her wedding, the excitement in the air was beyond measure! Seeing two people who have been in love for so long tie the knot is a special moment to behold, and all who were involved knew that.

The Barn at Frosty Valley Country club recently underwent a transformation, and this was my first time seeing the new space. Rustic dark wood coupled with elegant chandeliers and soft white drapes made the space romantic and cozy. As guests mingled and danced, Morgan and Devin were whisked away for some sunset photos. My favorite time of the wedding day is sunset photos, because it is usually the first time all day the bride and groom have a moment to let it soak in. The light is beautiful, the air is calm, and it’s just them (AND ME. But I’m cool I promise).

I was so excited to send Morgan and Devin their gallery! Here are some of my favorites from the day! Continue reading “The Barn at Frosty Valley Country Club Wedding | Morgan and Devin | Danville Wedding Photography” →
