American Swedish Historical Museum wedding | Erin and Kael

This August I was back at one of my favorite places for the American Swedish Historical Museum wedding of Erin and Kael. It turned out to be one of the most laid back weddings. And I wouldn’t have liked it any other way. Below are some of my favorites from their celebration.

Jackie and Ty’s wedding at Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania

Have you ever been to a wedding where the body language of the couple is so obvious, that even without words you would understand perfectly all the happiness they’re living and the love that surrounds them? Jackie and Ty’s wedding at Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania was one great example of that. And it only made our job easier, to photograph them having the time of their life. Let me explain in photos below.

Point Pleasant engagement with Samantha and Nathan

Around the year 1500, the area that included the future Point Pleasant was the ceremonial meeting place of the Lenape Native Americans, who called it the “Land of Tall Timber”. In approximately 1665, the first European settlers arrived in the area, mainly fishermen, farmers and boat builders. Samantha and Nathan are neither, but they did get engaged on the beautiful Jenkinson’s Boardwalklanterns and all. Here are a few photos from their eerie Point Pleasant engagement session last week.

Jessica and Jeff’s Spring wedding at Penn Oaks Golf Club

The trend is real people – more and more couples choose Spring and Fall for their weddings in the Delaware Valley. Jessica and Jeff were blessed with one such gorgeous day for their Spring wedding at Penn Oaks Golf Club in West Chester. I always look forward to Carina’s golf cart joyride around the course. I know, I have a speed problem, but more on that later.

Union Trust Wedding by Finley Catering | Nadia and Andrew

How can one top a beautiful Spring afternoon in the city, other than spending it in great company, sprinkled with tears and laughter throughout? I’ll tell you how. You take two people in love, walk them from Morris House Hotel through Washington Square Park’s busy alleys, all the way to their Union Trust wedding, and take photos in between, preferably. I call that my wedding day recipe, Nadia and Andrew being my main special ingredients. Enjoy!
