Data Driven pages PDF (pageRow) Question

Hello all,

Trying to export some data driven pages with dynamic names on multipage PDFs. The script works but exports only the first maps pageRow for each PDF ("ADRESS" = 1000 BISON AVE). Am I misunderstanding how pageRow works? I figured it would be dynamic for each indexed feature. Image of exported PDFs below as well as the script I am using. Thanks in advance.

import arcpy
arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True
mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument(r"\\Balboa\Maps\ModelBuilderScripts\PrePlanMapbookExport\PrePlanMapbook.mxd")
ddp = mxd.dataDrivenPages
strOutpath = "\\\Balboa\\Maps\\ModelBuilderScripts\\PrePlanMapbookExport\\IndividualPages\\"
pageorder = mxd.dataDrivenPages.pageRow.getValue("PRE_PLAN_NUM")
pageindex = mxd.dataDrivenPages.pageRow.getValue("ADDRESS")
pdfname = pageorder+ "_" + pageindex + ".pdf"
ddp.exportToPDF(strOutpath + pdfname, 'ALL', multiple_files="PDF_MULTIPLE_FILES_PAGE_NAME")
