      A Sweet Philadelphia Engagement at the Kimmel Center.

      So, first a note. It’s been ever-so-subtly stated that I need to blog more often. So, to that end, I am going to play catch up on some clients that I’ve shot over the past several months whose images I love for one reason or another. They’ll be a bit out of order, but I hope you’ll enjoy them nonetheless. I am going to blog a lot more, so hold onto your hat…. 😉

      I’m going to start off with a beautiful couple from an engagement session in Philadelphia. I already did a sneak peek of them before my leave. This is larger selection of images from that session.

      When Benjie first contacted me she told me about their love story and that they’d known each other since they were small children. I spoke about that in the sneak peek post, so I’ll get onto the session. When we first met, at the Kimmel Center, in Philadelphia it was soon after Benjie had returned from her home in Thailand. She brought me back a beautiful scarf that has quickly become a favorite of mine. I was so touched by her thoughtfulness and that was just the start of a really fun day.

      We shot the entire session in a 1 block radius with City Hall and Broad Street as our backdrop for several as well as the Kimmel Center (a place I love and use often for the way light plays in there and the architectural features). Both Ken and Benjie are avid photo enthusiasts and well I won’t lie… That makes things even more fun for me. Lots of ideas and spontaneity… A lot of laughter and wow, they’re just gorgeous.

      My only regret of the day was not having more time with them. Seriously– I could shoot this couple all day long, easily.

      So, OK, once again, Benjie and Ken…..

      I got a note from Benjie during my leave that they will be needing to change their wedding date in Bangkok due to a family emergency. It was originally scheduled for March of this year. I Know how important family can be, so….

      Benjie and Ken, whenever you two kids are ready to have that wedding day, I’m there for you (as long as I’m not already booked). I mean that. It would be my great honor. In fact, any old time you want to go out and play again, I’m there!

      Great e session! I love the architectural details. They really help to pull you into the shots.

      These are GORGEOUS! I love the entire set, but particularly those first few photos, with subtle hints and tiny details of what’s to come. Beautiful!!!

      You should definitely blog MORE. So there’s a not-so-subtle
      push! The photos are beautiful because the couple are so
      comfortable and relaxed, showing that they fully trust in your
      abilities. And it is easy to see why!

      The one in the middle of the road is incredible.. even his scarf is playing along nicely! Love!
