Unforgettable Engagement Session at Princeton University

There's something truly magical about capturing the love between two individuals, especially when they are as enamored and full of joy as Amanda and Jayson. Shooting their engagement session was a thrilling experience, filled with laughter, romance, and an abundance of beautiful moments. It was a radiant day, the location lending a perfect backdrop to their love story, as we explored the scenic grounds of Princeton University in New Jersey. As a photographer, Princeton has always been one of my favorite locations, with its stunning architecture and picturesque landscapes, it provided the perfect canvas for Amanda & Jayson's love to truly shine.

We encouraged the couple to have an outfit change during the session, a tactic we often recommend to our clients. This not only gives a variety in the photos but also allows the couple to express their individual styles and personalities. Amanda and Jayson discovered our work through weddings we had photographed for their family and friends. Their familiarity with our style and team at Photography by Orlando made the session even more comfortable and fun.

The story of how Amanda and Jayson met is as charming as they are. It dates back to 2016 at Montclair State University, where they were both actively involved in Greek life. Despite sharing common circles, they didn't really know each other until a fateful party. Amanda, urged by a friend to let Jayson know she found him cute on her bealf, But Amanda went a step further. She opted to tell him directly but added a twist instead Amanda told him she herself thought he was cute & she did it in Portuguese! Their relationship blossomed from that point and they officially started dating on December 6, 2017. Keeping with the significance of this date, they have decided to tie the knot on the same day this year.

The wedding will be held at the Stone House at Sterling Ridge in Warren, New Jersey, another one of our favorite venues. The staff and the grounds are gorgeous and the food is always amazing we love working at the Stone House at Sterling Ridge in Warren, New Jersey. We are beyond excited to not only capture their wedding through photographs but also provide video coverage for them. Anticipating a day filled with love, joy, and celebration, we can't wait to immortalize these moments for Amanda and Jayson. Their journey from a chance encounter at a university party to their upcoming wedding has been a joy to document, and we look forward to capturing many more milestones in their life together.
