{Curvy Engagement Session} Fall Love In New York | Lighthouse Photography Dream Weddings

From the couple: Alana and Allie have been together for over five years.  Allie is the Controller for a family-owned Logistics Company, and Alana is a Social Worker, and serves as a Drug & Alcohol Prevention Educator for youth on the East End of Long Island.

 
Allie and Alana met on Fire Island in May 2009 after being set up by mutual friends.  They fell for each other pretty quickly and never looked back!
 
Allie is quiet and introspective, while Alana is bubbly and carefree.  They both are fiercely loyal to their friends and to each other.  Alana describes Allie as being the perfect anchor for her, always providing strength and support for her, while never holding her back from her whacky escapades.  Allie loves that Alana: supports her exploration of many different hobbies and can turn her bad days into better ones with a big hug and kiss.  Both love how they can make each other laugh like no one else can, and would never judge each other for belting out Celine Dion’s “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now” in a car during a traffic crawl.

Allie and Alana have nurtured their relationship over the years through their love of Harry Potter and all other dorky obsessions, their ability to make each other smile when it’s needed most, the knowledge that family is extremely important to each of them, and through trial and error proving that opposites really do attract and maintain! They treasure their foodie adventures, whether out in the world or in their own kitchen, captained by Chef Allie.  They value the trust they have in each other, and appreciate independence from each other, but know the best place to be is snuggled on the couch with their two kitty-cat fur babies.
 
Allie proposed to Alana in September 2013, while they were away for the weekend in the hippie-mecca that is Woodstock, NY.  A few weeks later, Alana proposed right back!

The e-shoot took place on a beautiful November afternoon in the historic village of Port Jefferson, NY.  Allie and Alana had a lot of fun with their photographer, Florio – and Alana was most excited when they found a free marshmallow-roasting stand toward the end of the shoot.  Who doesn’t love a gooey toasted marshmallow!?!  
 
They are so so so looking forward to their wedding day, and can’t wait to be pronounced “Wife & Wife” in April 2015!!  :)
