Melissa and Dave wanted to have their engagement portraits taken at two of my favorite places: the beach and Citizen's Bank Park. So, instead of making them decide on one location, we decided to do both!

Anyone who knows me well enough knows that I am a huge baseball fan. Engagement portraits at Citizen's Bank Park have always been a goal of mine but the opportunity never came up. Until Melissa and Dave, who are also avid Phillies fans.

We started at Citizen's Bank Park for portraits, incorporating the concourse and memorabilia into the photos. Next, we did a few portraits in the VIP Club before heading down to use the dugout and the field as a backdrop. It was a lot of fun and the people that escorted us around were genuinely interested in what was happening!

We finished their engagement portraits in Ocean City, NJ. They have been going there for years so we decided it was the right place to capture their love for each other. Even though there was the usual shore crowd, we were able to get a few portraits on the boardwalk and a few portraits on the beach.
