Desi & Codie’s Engagement Session

Pine Grove Furnace State Park, Pine Grove, PA

THE ENGAGEMENT SESSION!

I had a great time with Desi & Codie at their Engagement Session.  We went to Pine Grove Furnace State Park and got some really great shots!  It was a little chilly, but when the wind died down, it was amazing weather…especially for February! Desi & Codie are getting married at Stone Hollow Farm in October of 2023 and Shay Scala Photography can’t wait to be a part in their wedding day!  This is their love story in their own words:

HOW YOU MET?

We met in 9th grade. We had a crush on each other then but didn’t become close until our 12th grade year in high school.

HOW YOU FELL IN LOVE?

He used to try and make me laugh all the time in our morning history class. One day I figured Id ask him if he wanted to come to a Halloween fire at my house, funny enough that same day he was getting ready to ask me to hang out too. He was the first one there and the last to leave. While he was there I decided I was going to climb my tree to scare a friend, but I got stuck trying to climb down. He came right to my rescue, grabbed the ladder and helped me down. Low and behold when he went to put the ladder back he didn’t sit it up right and it came down and smacked me in the back of the head. He felt so bad and kept telling me he was so sorry. I had told him it was fine and I knew it was an accident. After that we talked all night around the fire laughing and having a great time. Once everyone had left he waited to ask me on a date. He was so sweet about it and so excited to ask me, I couldn’t help but smile. Thats when I knew I started to fall in love with him. Seeing him smile and fumble over his words just made my heart so happy.

HOW DID YOU PROPOSE?

We went on our first vacation by ourselves to Ocean City MD in 2020. He is terrified of heights and rides but decided he would go on the ferris wheel with me on the board walk. Once we got on there he waited till we got to the very top to get down on his knee and ask me. All the while, I was looking out at the view. He tried a few times to get my attention. When I looked at him, he was shaking, asking me to marry him. I was so excited I couldn’t even make any words out, just a squeal. He kept asking me to answer before he had a heart attack from the height and me not answering. I finally said yes and gave him the biggest hug ever. I was just over the moon with joy when he asked.

WHAT ARE YOU MOST EXCITED ABOUT WITH PLANNING YOUR WEDDING?

I am excited to see his reaction when he sees me in my dress for the first time.

SOMETHING THAT MEANS THE MOST TO YOU.

The thing that means the most to us would be each other and our dog. Its our own little family and piece of paradise. I wouldn’t trade them for the world.
