If you’re ready to smile on this Friday, you’ve come to the right place! Chelsea & Phil are adorably in love & the pure joy on their faces is contagious. Their Youngstown engagement session was so much fun & we can’t wait for their wedding next August!
They looked beautiful & dapper in their first outfit of the session, which fit very well with the first location- the Poland Library. 
If you’re from the Youngstown area & you love good food & a comfy atmosphere, you’ve definitely heard of Nicolinni’s Ristorante & we’re willing to bet it’s one of your favorites! Well, that place of delicious Italian eats is where Chelsea & Phil met. They both worked there & the romance bloomed amidst warm baked bread & delectable dishes like Tuscan gnocchi & chicken piccata. 
Of course, Phil fell for that million watt smile of Chelsea’s immediately, but he loved her even more when he got to know her sweet, gentle, and bubbly personality.
After our fun at the Poland Library, we ventured to Mill Creek Park. It was so hot & humid, but these two didn’t seem to mind, as they cuddled close and never complained once about the heat.
Beautiful bride & handsome groom- Coming August 2016!
You’ve gotta hear how he proposed because it’s one of the cutest stories ever. He took her to a play & she said he was acting so strange. It was as if he wasn’t paying one bit of attention to the play at all & had no idea what was even happening. She thought it was a little odd, but decided to try to enjoy the show. After it was over, they were walking out of the theater & Chelsea heard music start to play. Little did she know the music was coming from inside of Phil’s pocket. He had a bluetooth speaker in there & was playing their song. He asked her to dance with him in the foyer of the theater. They slow danced to their song & then he asked her to be his wife. She was so surprised & shocked. Then her friend Ebony came out from amidst the crowd & Chelsea freaked out with happiness. Phil joked later that Chelsea was much more excited to see her friend than she was to have gotten engaged. Chelsea just smiled & said that the entire thing was like a dream & she simply couldn’t believe one of her best friends was there, too, so she could gush about it & show her the gorgeous ring.
This is what happiness looks like!
The sunlight was smiling down on us that day & we loved it!
It’s awesome how cute they are together. They just emanate joy! And they both have such fun senses of humor. We were all laughing throughout the whole engagement session. We know their wedding day will be a blast.
Chelsea & Phil, thanks for being so darn cute & for choosing us to photograph your wedding day. We can’t wait & know August 2016 will be here before we know it!
