I remember being 13 years old having sleepovers at Ashley’s house and staying up wayyyy too late talking about the boys we thought were cute, the people we wanted to marry and the latest church drama. A lot has changed since those days but through the years one of the friendships I have valued the most is Ashley’s. She was my maid of honor..well we called it Best Friend In Law or BFFIL for short. She became Jordan’s BFFIL and while like every friendship there have been highs and lows, she is still one of my favorite people on this planet. So when she first mentioned Rey all giggly at my studio one day in the fall of 2019, I knew we were headed down a path of love. A year and a half later, she is now engaged to that handsome guy and is planning their wedding for this fall. When she first started planning and we were talking about budget, vendors the venue and all of that, I realized that while being in her wedding would be awesome….I’d rather be the one capture it. I want her to have the prettiest pictures and the best experience as a bride and it just made sense to me to offer to photograph it instead. And the rest, as they say, is history!

We met up in Rittenhouse for their engagement session a few weekends ago and as expected, Ashley was dressed perfectly. Her style, love for glam and how dang pretty she is had me so excited for this shoot but the bonus surprise that made it all the sweeter? The way Rey looks at her. The way he smiles so big. The laughter we all had. Its so obvious that they love each other and its makes me so happy that my BFF has finally found the guy of her dreams! And the cherry on top of this shoot? BB, her maid of honor whom I adore, came to help out for the shoot and even did Ashley’s hair. It was just perfection ya’ll.

Scroll on to see my favorites! I really really couldn’t narrow it down because I loved all of them so much but I hope you enjoy these two cuties and get excited to see them again later this year! <3
