Engagement session in and around Easton

It's always fun to introduce people to some of Easton's most scenic spots. Sarah and Keith are engaged to be married next year at The Riverview Country Club and enjoyed walking around Lafayette College's campus for their photo session.  We drove past Easton's Farmer's Market and down to the Delaware Canal Park where I showed them the shad migration fish ladder and the recently restored towpath (great for biking, which Keith was excited about).  I told them that it goes on for miles and that the only way I can be coaxed onto it is with a promise that we'll stop at The Riegelsville Inn for lunch.   

Gnarly Bark-ing Beasts

Lafayette College's campus is home to a matching pair of magnificent 100-year old Japanese cutleaf maples. So when I discovered that my latest photo subject liked trees and climbing, I had to show him my favorite trees and get this 'Avatar-like' environmental portrait.   It looks like he's high up in the canopy of a tropical jungle.  I also suggested that he check out the North Summit Climbing Gym in Wind Gap...the people there are kind, cool and knowledgeable.

Lafayette's five-year plan to reduce cars and turn its hilltop campus into a pedestrian-friendly academic haven is already underway. And work has begun on the walking and sculpture trail along the Bushkill Creek leading toward the Silk Mill Project!
