Michael + Rachel | A Philadelphia Holiday Proposal


Michael and Rachel’s Addison Street Proposal was certainly the perfect place for a Philadelphia Holiday Proposal.
Rachel and I met at a family member’s birthday party in our hometown, Reading PA. We instantly connected and have been inseparable ever since. She’s my world and I’m so so happy to have a new fiancé!
She’s the amazing, beautiful color of my life!
We celebrated with dinner at our special occasion spot, Trattoria Carina – they’re the best! After, we walked close by to Addison street where John was waiting to capture the moment. Rach said to me, “oh look a photo shoot” – not knowing it was her own. I asked and she said, “a million times yes”. She had no idea the party was just getting started, family and friends were waiting close by at Pub & Kitchen to help celebrate and dance the night away. Big thanks to musician and close friend John Gilbride for providing the tunes! It was the perfect evening, we’re so lucky to have found each other and to be surrounded by the people we love the most!
John was incredible – he knew exactly how to capture such a special, important moment. We’re so unbelievably pleased with the results and can’t recommend him and his work enough.
About the Photographer: John is a wedding, portrait and event photographer who shoots around 25-30 weddings annually in the greater Philadelphia area.
