If you're newly engaged and looking for the perfect backdrop to celebrate, you're in the right place!
As a high-end wedding photographer in the Lehigh Valley, I've had the absolute joy of capturing love stories in some of the most breathtaking locations this area has to offer. Your engagement session is your time to shine! It’s a chance to get comfortable in front of the camera, have fun with your fiancé, and capture this special chapter of your love story. Here are a few of my favorite locations that always provide the dreamiest shots:
