Ashley and Liam’s Boathouse Row Philadelphia and art museum engagement session took place on a beautiful spring afternoon. This lovely couple reached out to us a few weeks ago for helping in photographing stunning engagement visuals that they planned on putting on display at their wedding. They also desired professional photos that would commemorate this special time in their lives. This shoot went smoothly and was a lot of fun for our team. 

How Ashley and Liam Met

Ashley and Liam met at a Halloween party hosted by one of Ashley’s closest friends who happened to be dating a friend of Liam’s at the time. While everyone was dancing Ashley and Liam talked the night away and bonded over the fact that Michael Jackson was their favorite musician. They exchanged numbers and went on their first date a week later and have been inseparable ever since. 

Ashley fell in love with Liam’s awkward sense of humor. “He’s so funny and he doesn’t even realize it. We have so much fun together. That’s how I knew he was the one,” Ashley remarked during the pre-photoshoot interview. 

Liam’s Grand Proposal

Liam proposed to Ashley on her birthday. He took her out for a beautiful dinner at the Boat House Row in Philadelphia where they enjoyed their favorite meals. Although the couple had talked about marriage, she wasn’t exactly sure when the proposal was coming. Liam popped the question during dessert. He had the chef stick the ring into her key lime pie. As soon as Ashley saw the ring she said yes. Both Ashley and Liam describe the moment that they became officially engaged as the best day of their life. 

Boathouse Row Philadelphia and Art Museum Engagement Session

For this engagement session, we took things back to where the couple first decided they wanted to spend the rest of their lives with each other- The Boathouse Row. This country club has one of the most beautiful landscapes in the area and we took advantage of every inch. We capitalized off the natural sunlight that shone brightly on the couple and captured stunning visuals of Ashley and Liam near the vibrant and lush trees. 

The art museum in Philly is one of our favorite places to shoot couples. It provides a dramatic background that allows us to artistically depict a couple’s love story. The Philadelphia Museum of Art is also one of Ashley and Liam’s places to visit when they have the extra time.
