Two of my amazing couples for 2012 weddings fit in some engagement sessions over the holiday. We had such a blast, even though the weather sucked both days! But that’s Erie… and that’s winter.. We made the best of it and I’m so happy with the results. Here’s a few of my favorites, and you can see more on my facebook page. Enjoy and I hope you had an incredible Christmas & New Year!

Erica & Joe are one of the most fun couples! We cancelled the session once because of a rain storm… and then almost got rained out again but decided to just brave the grey weather and I’m so glad we did. I had so much fun with them, listening to stories and watching them make each other laugh We started out on Mercyhurst’s beautiful campus and then moved down by the waterfront to the Bayfront Sheraton skyway. Enjoy! Can’t wait for your wedding next year guys!

When Kendra called me to set up some pictures for their 2 year anniversary, I was so excited! It’s always an honor to get to photograph your past wedding clients, especially those who are still so happy and in love! We had a great time, even through a little rain, and ventured down to trails around Behrend, in Erie PA for some fall anniversary pics. I couldn’t resist some gorgeous fallf oliage and nature shots as well Enjoy!

Megan & Tim and I had a wonderful time photographing their engagement photos at her parent’s beautiful home in Fairview, PA. The property was stunning, and these two were so cute and in love, it was so great. They also laughed at all my clutzy antics which helped Check out a few more on flickr!

Check out this gorgeous couple and beautiful scenery! Can’t wait for their wedding next year.

Sam & Caitie just booked me for their wedding about 2 weeks ago, and we jumped right in and did their mini-engagement session at Presque Isle on a clear, blue skied and sunny day! They are doing long-distance right now, so I think getting to hang out and be lovey-dovey was a fun time for them! Check out some favorites of mine, and guys can’t wait for your wedding next June 30!

Also, sam & caitie are PRO-rock skippers! they were going so far I was having a hard time photographing them, so I had them skip shallower and caught these cool pics

Kate & Ross // Anniversary Session // Erie, PA Photographer

Rachel — Mon, 15 Aug 2011 02:59:20 +0000

I was so excited to get asked to take pictures for Kate & Ross. They live now in Las Vegas – and came up to Erie for a friends wedding. They wanted some fun and cool pics together and planned out all the places we definitely wanted to hit and with sweet outfits to boot. Tomorrow, August 15 will be their 3 year anniversary The weather was CRAZY to say the least, we thought we’d have to cancel due to flash flood warnings – but we pressed on and ended up getting some amazing shots with some sweet cloudy and stormy skies! We had a great time running around Erie and finding the best spots Thanks for asking me and being patient when my car ran out of gas!! haha

I have had so many sessions this week (plus one more to go tomorrow) I don’t know if I’ll be able to get them all blogged! Ahhh but I had to share a few from the engagement tonight – we got to go to the Erie Seawolves stadium – Jerry Uht Park, and it was awesommeee! Casey (future groom) is the Assistant Baseball Coach and Cortland College in New York so he really wanted to do some pictures on a baseball field – and we were able to get in. We had lots of fun! And this was the first time I had gotten to meet them in person but we quickly broke the ice by having to remove hundreds of spiderwebs from all over the seats. We finished up downtown at the Courthouse and Gannon area!
