Philadelphia Couple Met at Villanova Law
Some of the strongest relationships start out as friendships. This was the case for Alannah and Kyra’s surprise proposal.
“We met in law school at Villanova,” Alannah said. “What started as a close friendship gradually turned into something more. We started out as best friends, and then grew into a couple.”

Capturing the Surprise Proposal
This engagement session was particularly exciting because it was a complete surprise.
“Kyra has no idea,” Alannah said with a laugh. “She’ll be coming home from a hair appointment, so I have time to set up the surprise proposal in our backyard.”
Alannah had been keeping the proposal a secret, and pulling it off without spoiling the surprise was no small feat. I parked a few houses down, ran into the backyard and hid behind the shed. The moment it all came together was an emotional and special milestone in their relationship.
A Surprise Proposal That Felt Intimate & Personal
Alannah and Kyra’s engagement photos were intimate, personal and captured the unique dynamic of their relationship.
Finding the person you want to spend the rest of your life with is a big decision, but sometimes you just know when you’ve found “the one.”
“She’s always been my best friend, and realizing that there was something romantic was just a bonus.”
