It continues to amaze me how some photo-sessions call for black & white images, and some call for color. Needless to say, Cody & Amber's engagement session was one of those that required color, color, color!

In the last couple weeks, I've have been blessed to be able to photograph two out of three of my best friends from high school. I met Amber in 5th grade, when she moved to the same elementary school as me. I'm sure if I dug through my Mom's old photographs, I'd find a handful of Amber and I hanging out as kids. :) We remained friends through middle school, and even walked together at our high school graduation.

I truly love my job, and I really love when I get photograph the people that mean the most to me.

Amber & Cody met their first year at Messiah College - and the rest is history. I remember going out for ice cream, coffee, breakfast, etc.. with Amber, and always hearing about Cody and how wonderful he is. And he's nothing short of that. They are perfect for each other and I can't wait to see them get married in June. I'm pretty sure I'll cry at their wedding, no matter what. :)

They chose to have their engagements shot in Harrisburg, since they have many memories of being downtown together from their four years (right?) of dating. It was FREEZING outside - but we survived and got some fantastic images out of our session.

And, to Cody & Amber - I hope you enjoy these images as much as I do. You guys are precious. [BC]
