WOW-a Love Story!

We started Keri and Dan’s Engagement photo session by that mural in Harleysville, PA and then they told me that several years ago they met for a first time in front of  the Wawa next block. I thought to myself “Hey, what’s better place for engagement photos than Wawa’s parking lot!?” Keri and Dan ware crazy enough to agree with me and here you go – that important location was documented for the future generations. I hope that answers any questions like “What’s up with that WAWA picture”:)

I often think to myself  how blessed I am this year with couples been very enthusiastic about their photo session and I had great time with those two as well!!!

Thank you guys! I hope you like these samples! There is more to come!!!
