An Engagement Session With Planes, Trains and Automobiles
There once was a girl…and a boy. And they met each other while attending college together. They fell in love and their love grew. But life and education pulled them into different directions and yet, they somehow they found a way to make it work.
I’ll tell you how…
True love.
And planes, trains and automobiles.
Much of the early part of their relationship was long distance and so, we decided what a great way to have a little fun and still keep their photographic story pretty authentic. Well we took some license, and we… well I’ll let the photos tell the rest of their story.
Meet Valerie and David.  They will be married this July in Philadelphia. She’s a former Miss Pennsylvania and in medical school and he’s one of the good guys managing other people’s investments.
David and Valerie, thank you for not laughing at me for jumping up and down little a little kid through most of this session.  Mostly thank you for being such absolutely lovely people to work with and for trusting me.  I can’t wait until your wedding day!
