Meet Kylie and Jim. I photographed them last month in Manayunk PA and they will be getting married next April (I also photographed Kylie’s cousin Jeff and sister Meara this past summer!). They are both Eagles fan so it was only natural for them to take a couple pictures in their jerseys :) – I on the other hand am completely clueless about football and get a bit envious when everyone is talking football and I don’t have a clue. lol.
Kylie shared her and Jim’s engagement story with me -
Jim and I met four years ago, through friends. We had actually been in the same place at the same time several times before we officially met. Through separate friends, we used to spend time at the same house in Manayunk. Jim used to stop by the house after a bar-tending shift to hang out, eventually leaving to go out with other friends. One night, he came over after his shift and planned on going out with friends. After finally getting a chance to talk to him for a while, he left to meet his friends, and did not plan on coming back. To my pleasant surprise, he arrived back at the house a few short hours later. That night, we spent time talking about everything and anything. And so it began. Through our relationship, he has become my partner and my best friend. Exactly three years and one week later, he proposed in the most wonderful way. At my parents house, with my mom and dad there to celebrate with us. I could not have imagined a better way to be get engaged.
I just love engagement stories! Congratulations guys and I wish you all the best in your upcoming marriage. Looking forward to April!
Same shot from a different perspective and with a smile from Kylie!
