A Love That Feels Like Home | Engagement Session with Raymond & Marissa
Some love stories just feel extra special, and Raymond and Marissa’s story is one of them. From the moment they met online three years ago, they both said it felt like “home.” That word stood out to me so much—it says everything about the way they look at each other and the life they’re building together.
When I met them for their engagement session, I could tell right away how much love and admiration they share. They came into the session saying they were “super excited” but also admitted, “neither one of us are very photogenic.” Let me just say—these two were naturals. The way they laughed together, made little jokes, and leaned into each other’s company made every shot look effortless.
Everyday Joys Together
One of the sweetest parts of their story is how much they love spending time as a family. They share their lives not only with their kids but also with their furry babies. Weekends often mean cheering on their favorite teams—the Eagles, Phillies, and Sixers. Sports, family, and cozy evenings together are at the heart of what makes their relationship so fun and grounded.
A Promise in Every Picture
During our session, Raymond and Marissa had one request that melted my heart: a pinky promise shot with the ring. It’s such a simple but meaningful way to show their bond. Those little touches—moments that feel like them—are what make photos timeless. They told me they want to remember “the love and admiration we have for each other” when they look back in 10 years, and that’s exactly what we captured.
Classic, Romantic, and Truly Themselves
Their vision for this shoot was “classic and romantic,” and they nailed it. Between sweet smiles, quiet hugs, and playful moments, their gallery tells a story of a couple who are not only in love but also best friends. They may have thought they weren’t photogenic, but these photos prove otherwise. Every image is filled with warmth, laughter, and the comfort of being with your person.
