Danielle & Brian's Villanova Bridal Portraits

Is there anything more lush and gorgeous than the eastern Pennsylvania countryside in late summer? The landscape is so ALIVE with flora & fauna. The experience of it is even sweeter when you notice the leaves beginning to fall to the ground, and realize how fleeting these days are. Danielle and Brian met me in Villanova to soak in the setting sun, dance in the ruins of an old stone building, and laugh through an invasion of local dog walkers.

These two were married in March 2018 at the Museum of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, Florida. They live in Montgomery County where Brian teaches and Danielle works for the Philadelphia Orchestra. When choosing a location for their six month anniversary photoshoot, finding a venue with a gorgeous Pennsylvania landscape was important. They love to hike and be outside, and they wanted to enjoy the natural beauty of the state where they live. We met on a Sunday afternoon after they attended church in Rittenhouse Square. It was a warm afternoon and we created some beautiful images while they told me about their first months of marriage and danced to their first dance song, "Come Away With Me" by Norah Jones.
