so when she came to my studio for a consultation we discussed the possiblity of shooting their engagement portraits there, and I thought why not?!\u00a0 It&#8217;s actually not a bad train ride from NYC and I really enjoyed the adventure of shooting in a new location&#8211; it required lots of improvisation and quick thinking, and though shooting there offered similar types of scenery to NYC, the unfamiliarity made it very fresh and fun.\u00a0 ONE thing I will tell you, there is some sort of stink-plant polluting the air in certain neighborhoods of Philly.\u00a0 I forget what it was called and I guess it only stinks when the little fruit-nuts fall and get smushed on the streets, but boy was that a terrible smell.\u00a0 Here are my favorites&#8211;
