Cydney & Kate’s Philadelphia Engagement Session

Kate and Cydney are getting married next year in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. We had the good fortune of meeting over at my very favorite wedding planning site, A Practical Wedding, where they were the very compelling entrants and nearly unanimous winners of a wedding photography giveaway.  But I totally feel like the winner having met them. They are not only individually awesome human beings who I’d dig hanging out with on their own, but they are the most genuine loving couple. Hanging out with them together makes me want to emit squeaky noises and do a little jumpy dance. Plus they live in Philly (my home state!) and Kate has Quaker roots they plan to integrate into the ceremony (my heritage!) AND their wedding is in the gorgeous state of Massachusetts (where I lived for 6 years before moving to Colorado), SOOHMYGOD I totally feel like I hit the jackpot with two like-minded and awesome people.

Here are some of Kate’s AWEsome words that sealed the deal on us all getting to make wedding photo magic together.

But here’s the thing: We are that rarest of gay couples – a couple who is supported in their relationship by both sets of parents, by grandparents (in Kansas and Texas, no less), and family of all ages in the United Kingdom. What we would love is for a photographer to document our wedding – including all of the love, support, and family that we are anticipating – and then to use those photos (and to let our photographer use those photos … And APW and whomever else wants ‘em) as examples of what it should be like for ALL queer couples who get hitched.

Hell yeah Kate. I love these photos, but I really, really can’t wait until your wedding day when you’re embraced by all those wonderful people who love you and Cydney. I’ll be honored to be there.
