Pinnacle Overlook Engagement Session | Holtwood, PA | Rita + Tristan

Engagement

July 16, 2021

back to blog

Rita and Tristan are a fun couple to be around! They started dating in 2018 and have developed some awesome habits. They go mini-golfing every month and hold their own tournament each year. Together they enjoy hiking and paddleboarding, and going to see movies with their movie pass. We had a great time with their Pinnacle Overlook engagement session.

Just like their every day life, their engagement story is a great one:

“It was just us two on the mountain and it was perfect”

“We drove to Mount Pisgah on New Year’s day. I really wanted to do a New Years’ day hike and found the place on All Trails I had never been and thought it would be a great way to start the new year. The way up was a struggle because it was all uphill and kind of steep but it was a short hike to the top.

When we got to the top, he suggested we set up one of our phones and just do different poses and then we could screenshot them later. It was pretty rocky so I thought this was a good idea but it wasn’t something Tristan would normally suggest so I thought something was up. At one point I was like “okay I think we got enough” and turned the video off and Tristan had to turn the video on again. Right before I was about to stop the video again he said he wanted to do one more pose and that’s when he knelt down and asked me to marry him.

It was just us two on the mountain and it was perfect. Tristan knew how important to me it was to get photos of the proposal because I love documenting memories like that and he thought of the perfect way to capture the moment and still keep it between us two. After that, we called friends and families from on top of the mountain. The hike down was much more fun than the hike up! lol”

While planning their engagement session, we quickly narrowed down to a few of their favorite locations. After some discussion, we landed on Pinnacle Overlook in Holtwood, PA. The views are amazing there and it’s such a beautifully convenient location. Rita and Tristan are so natural together, and I can’t get over how infectious Rita’s smile and laugh is. I can already tell that their wedding in October will be a great time!
