The Library has maintained it's Victorian architecture and cozy feel. Complete with spiral staircases, an elaborate dome roof, and a pay phone closet located on the first floor.
The rainy day made the exterior even more glorious than I had imagined!

Handley Library
In 1913, Handley Library in downtown Winchester opened it's doors for the first time. Judge John Handley of Scranton, Pennsylvania left $250,000 in his will to “ . . . open a Public Library for the free use of the people of the city of Winchester forever.”

It was the perfect location for me to shoot Susan and JayAre's engagement photos and I am eager to return for more photos later!

wooooow. That's fantastic! did you ask them if they wanted your pix for their website?
ReplyDeleteYeah I did. I offered to have them use them in exchange for photo credit on the site. Sent a few to the library director. So, we'll see what she says. :) She sounded interested when I first mentioned it...
ReplyDeleteSo I kind of want those stairs... :D
