The beautiful fall weather continued for Samantha and Danny’s engagement session around the University of Pittsburgh campus. Since Samantha and Danny actually first met their last year at Pitt, we thought it would be perfect for their engagement photos.
When I first met with Samantha and Danny, they told me about their engagement story, and I had to laugh because it was so cute and creative. Instead of going for something loud and glamorous, Danny devised a simple plan, using something he knew Samantha couldn’t resist: trail mix (I must admit, I love it too). He hid the ring inside a bag of trail mix, and when Samantha finished getting ready to go out, she slipped her hand into the bag to grab a tasty bite. Instead of peanuts and raisins, though, she pulled out a diamond ring!
I had a great time getting to spend some more time with them on their session around Oakland, and I loved how Danny makes Samantha laugh, and vice versa. I’m looking forward to their wedding next May at Heinz Chapel and the University Club.
It’s kind of tricky trying to kiss on a carousel!
EDIT: And I forgot (again)! It was also Samantha’s birthday! Happy belated birthday to her!
