Philadelphia Bride, Saves Drowning Boy During Engagement Shoot

It was a picture perfect moment that nearly turned to tragedy.

On a blazing hot Saturday earlier this month, Becki Salmon and her finance, Matt Werner, spent a few hours in a Pennsylvania park trying to capture the ideal engagement shot.

But the romantic scene took a heart-racing turn when Salmon noticed a little boy fighting for his life in the creek behind her. She immediately abandoned the photo shoot and dove into the water to help, WPVI reports.

Becki Salmon rushed to the rescue.

The couple’s photographer, Ken Beerger, captured each moment of the dramatic rescue as she pulled the boy out to safety.

“If I would have had my wedding dress on that day, that’s what I would have been in the water in,” Salmon, who’s a trained lifeguard and paramedic, told WPVI.
