Courtney and Andrew’s classic lakeside engagement session was the first time I’ve shot at Lake Nockamixon, but it certainly won’t be my last!

Courtney and Andrew met a few years ago while he was bartending at Torre. Courtney immediately knew there was something special, and she returned the Torre the very next weekend. The two of them quickly became friends, and then started dating soon after.

Andrew asked Courtney to spend forever with him around Christmastime in downtown Bethlehem last year. Anyone who has been to downtown Bethlehem during that time of year knows how magical it is! It is Christmas city, after all.

I couldn’t believe that Courtney and Andrew had never taken professional photos before–they were absolute naturals in front of the camera (especially Courtney’s amazing model stare–something I will never even come close to achieving haha). But as gorgeous as they are together, they were even sweeter as people. We had the best time and felt like we already knew each other. Shooting their engagement session by the water and in the woods was SO dreamy.

Courtney and Andrew, I had the best time hanging out with you!! I can’t wait for your wedding at Pen Ryn Estate!
