Some love stories feel straight out of a movie—Claire and Ryan’s is one of them. Their engagement session in New Hope, PA, was nothing short of magical, filled with charming cobblestone streets, riverside views, and golden-hour romance.
Nestled along the Delaware River, New Hope offers the perfect mix of historic charm and scenic beauty—an ideal setting for capturing two souls madly in love. From strolling hand-in-hand along the quaint downtown streets to sharing quiet moments by the water, Claire and Ryan’s session was effortlessly romantic and uniquely them.
Playful, Candid, & Completely Themselves 💕
One of my favorite things about Claire and Ryan is how effortlessly they connect. They weren’t afraid to laugh, be silly, and just enjoy the moment—which made for the most genuine, heartfelt images.
At one point, Ryan spun Claire around in the middle of the street, and she couldn’t stop laughing. That’s the magic I love to capture—the unscripted, real, joy-filled moments that reflect exactly who they are together.
We wrapped up the session by the Delaware River, where the gentle sound of the water and the soft evening breeze created the perfect quiet moment. Just the two of them, soaking in this special season of their lives.
Golden Light & Timeless Romance
As the sun dipped lower in the sky, we found the dreamiest golden light, wrapping Claire and Ryan in a soft, warm glow. The way they looked at each other—filled with excitement, deep love, and pure joy—made every moment feel cinematic.
We started our session wandering through the heart of New Hope, where historic buildings, colorful storefronts, and ivy-covered walls provided the perfect backdrop.
Every turn offered a new photo opportunity—whether it was a charming brick alleyway, a rustic wooden bridge, or the twinkle of café lights as the evening set in.
A Love That Feels Like Home
Claire and Ryan’s engagement session in New Hope wasn’t just about capturing beautiful photos—it was about telling their story. A story of two people who found home in each other.
To Claire & Ryan—your love is effortless, radiant, and so incredibly special. I cannot wait to capture your wedding day and the next beautiful chapter of your journey together!
