Storytelling Engagement Photoshoot at Historic Shady Lane

Engagement photoshoot in front of the greenhouse at Historic Shady Lane in Pennsylvania.

This stunning engagement photoshoot with Brooke and Kevin was everything. Historic Shady Lane in Pennsylvania is absolutely breathtaking and was the perfect backdrop to capture their love story! From the glowing greenhouse to the open fields, every moment felt like it was out of a fairy tale. It was such a joy capturing those intimate moments full of laughter, letting their personalities shine through!

Make Your Engagement Photoshoot FUN!

Brooke and Kevin had the most adorable banter and laughter during their engagement photoshoot at Historic Shady Lane! I can’t stress enough how important it is to HAVE FUN during your session! Let go of all the wedding planning stress and be present in the moment. Make jokes, share playful moments, and dance around with the love of your life.

Telling Your Story Through Photos

An engagement photoshoot is so much more than just snapping pictures and checking a box on your wedding planning checklist. It’s about telling your story in a way that feels authentic, intimate, and reflective of your unique journey together! Be willing to invest time for storytelling photos. Pick a location that’s meaningful to you, plan outfits that compliment your personality (like Brooke’s gorgeous dress from Petal and Pup!), and don’t rush through the session. The best photos come from slowing down and letting those real, in-between moments shine.

Creating a More Meaningful Engagement Photoshoot

Choosing your wedding photographer to capture your engagement session can make all the difference (like me, hi)! This allows you to get to know your photographer and feel more comfortable, easing those nerves before your big day. And just as important, your photographer can understand what makes your love unique and bring that to life through your photos.
