Alissa and Kim - Philadelphia Magic Garden Engagement Session

Many years ago I watched a photography class taught by one of my favorite photographers, Jasmine Star, and she encouraged everyone to create a list of locations that we would love to shoot in.  For me, the Philadelphia Magic Gardens was one of those spaces.  All the colors, artistic vision, and unique feel of the space has always made me wanna shoot an engagement session there, so when Alissa and Kim asked about doing their e-shoot there, I was thrilled!!!  And let me tell you, it lived up to the hype in my head!  

We started the shoot by walked around the area where Magic Gardens is, taking in South Streets cute side streets and cool murals before heading into the gardens!  Alissa and Kim are hilarious and so sweet, making it fun to photograph them together!  We shot between the other people also visiting the gardens but despite there being tons of people there, their images look like it was just them.  They were so patient with me and it made their end results so so perfect!  

Alissa and Kim are getting married at another one of my dream locations, Material Culture, next fall and I can not wait to photograph these two again!  More than that though, I am excited for these two to move to the area so we can be friends with these two incredible people!  We love you two and are so so excited to be apart of your journey and lives!  Enjoy some of my favs!
