Alyssa + Dante | Engagement at Hotel Du Village in New Hope, PA

First engagement session of 2022 is in the books! And another first: this was my first time photographing an engagement session at the beautiful Hotel Du Village! Meeting Alyssa + Dante there was perfect, as we got to explore the grounds and daydream about their upcoming wedding there this summer! We had such beautiful lighting, and it wasn’t nearly as cold as the forecast predicted. They were so easy going and relaxed, despite the chilly weather (meanwhile I’m in my scarf, hat, and coat totally warm!). I always feel so bad for my couples when the weather is less than ideal, but they were so gracious about it! After spending some time at the venue, we headed down the road to downtown New Hope, where we took a stroll over the bridge! I loved my time with these two. Their engagement session resulted in gorgeous images of their love (and killer lighting), and it also gave me some awesome time getting to know them! I can’t wait to celebrate these two tie the knot this summer! Hope you enjoy a glimpse into their engagement portraits!
