Liz and Rob’s wedding at the Merion of Cinnaminson

Fun has been had at the last wedding of our season with Liz and Rob at the beautiful Merion of Cinnaminson, NJ. After their getting ready at the hotel, we setup their first look at Merion on the grand staircase. And it was a teary one, but it definitely set the mood for our romantic portraits at Lakeview Park around the corner. The golden light of the late fall didn’t disappoint and provided some much needed warmth for the couple.

The rest of the night was not short of great music, food and wonderful guests. Enjoy the photos!

Mark and Carly party up their wedding at Northampton Valley Country Club

So it was Halloween and October with its last day chill engulfed the couple, in a misty veil … (disc scratch noise) Wait, wait, waaait, it was actually a beautiful and warm day full of colors and amazing people. Yea, yea that’s how I remember it. Mark, Carly, a little back up here please? Anyone? 🙂

As soon as I met these two lovely people I knew it was a match made in heaven and the wedding is gonna rock. Well I was not let down, let me tell ya. And as a bonus we rode golf carts around Northampton Valley Country Club‘s beautiful grounds. Still waiting on golf carts to become golf bump carts, but racing them will do for now.

Shall we take a look at these photo? Let’s!

Engagement photos in Philly with Robyn and Jack

When someone mentions rooftops, secret access is the cherry on top to my excitement. And that’s exactly what we did, pretty safely shall I say. After we failed to convince Robyn and Jack’s kitty that cameras are not dangerous to felines we headed out to Waterworks and Art Museum for a few more playful shots. I have a feeling this wedding is gonna have some sort of dance off, just sayin’. 🙂

Tyler Arboretum Engagement with Andrea and Matthew

Tyler Arboretum is one of my favorite locations to photograph weddings, and more and more engagements. We even had a guest appearance, their two super sweet doggies. It was the perfect fall afternoon, with leaves in full color, a bit chilly and a slight smell of garden fires. But before I get too poetic, I’ll let you enjoy the photos.

Engagement at Temple University with Ashley and David

Had a great time fooling around with Ashley and David at Penn’s Landing. Later we headed to Temple University where they both graduated from and I tell ya, spirits were high after they changed into temple gear. I like when couples choose a place that means something to them, it brings back good memories. But I’ll let you enjoy the photos.

Amanda and Adam at the Pyramid Club in Philadelphia

More and more brides and grooms choose to get ready at a hotel near to their reception venue for their convenience and their guests’ as well. And so we started with Amanda and Adam getting ready at the Sonesta Hotel right across the road from the beautiful Pyramid Club.

Adam getting his flower put on, of course with a smile on his face.

Guys debating politics with a football game as background noise.

And our beautiful bride Amanda, putting her Sophia Tolli dress on.

Smooches and kisses from the bridesmaids. A fun bunch indeed Amanda!

First look with his bride.

Oooh, an awesome cake topper…oooh I can see Ben Franklin Bridge! 🙂

I had the pleasure of playing with Sean and Casey photographing their engagement session at Bucks County Community College. Sean is deploying to Cuba and I want to thank him for his service with this occasion. I said it before and I will say it again and again, I’m super lucky to work with such amazing people. Enjoy!

Tina and Joe’s Penn Oaks Golf Club wedding

From the moment I met with Tina and Joe I knew that they wanted to hire me as their photographer, and I think deep down they knew as well. 🙂

Well it happened, and after having a great engagement session I couldn’t wait for their big day to arrive.

One emotional wedding, I tell ya, and I couldn’t be happier with the photos.

First I fooled around with the guys getting done up, then I had some fun with Tina and the girls while they were getting ready. After capturing their first look and playing a bit with the awesome bridal party we got ready for the big moment, the ceremony, where some funny confessions were revealed about Tina’s stalking tactics for her love, Joe.

Later DJ Johnny A entertained us with his wicked tunes and the party was ON! It was a wonderful Penn Oaks Golf Club wedding indeed!

Eagles judging

An emotional first look oh yes, some sick dancing was on display

Did I mention a full lunar eclipse and a blood moon happened that night? Too bad we couldn’t see much of it because of the clouds.

Kristin and Andrew’s wedding at Garces Trading Co.

Every wedding I photograph I get to see how lucky I am to be creating wonderful memories for new families. This time Maria, our associate photographer, captured Kristin and Andrew’s wedding at Garces Trading Co., and they had a great time undoubtedly. I gotta admit I got really hungry when finishing the photos, the food looked amazing. 🙂

But I’ll let you enjoy the photos for yourself.

Morning engagement with Laura and Eric at Ridley Creek State Park

Not only they are one of the sweetest I’ve photographed but Laura and Eric met me at Ridley Creek State Park at the wee hours of the morning. Too dangerous to mention the hour for most people for their own protection. We shivered, we fooled around, and almost got swollen by a swamp at one point, but it was all worth it in the end.

Nina and Jason rock their Morris Arboretum wedding

Just like any great love story begins, on a wild, eclectic, and spooky night(Nina’s words), Nina and Jason’s started on a balmy New Year’s Eve on the levee of the great Mississippi river. After shielding his girlfriend from the river rats Jason had a quite a big question to ask Nina. Fast forward to this past weekend I can easily say she did answer that question with a big yes.

Tears were shed, smiles were displayed, golf carts were refreshingly breezy, and under the tent dancing was enjoyed by everyone. Have a look and see how we were all delighted by this Morris Arboretum wedding of a lovely couple, Nina and Jason.

Tinicum Park Barn wedding with Lisa and Derek

Since the moment I met with Lisa and Derek I told myself: Man this wedding is gonna rock. And boy wrong was I not. We started capturing Lisa and Derek’s getting ready at The National Hotel in Frenchtown, NJ. After their first look we headed over to the magical place that Tinicum Park Barn is to have some fun.

Let me tell ya’, I love when couples let me use the beautiful afternoon light and plan to have enough time for their portraits. And when you’re as sweet and up for anything like Lisa and Derek are, gorgeous photos will follow pronto. Enjoy!

They caught a super nice phi…I mean photographer. 🙂

Regina and Tyler at Blossom Hill Estate – outdoor wedding

You know that feeling you get when the rain is hovering in the puffy clouds but just teases the guests for a while? How can you, you’re probably not a geeky photographer. To make a story short the rain did not start until we were done with the majority of the photos and we could run underneath the tents. And you probably came here to see this beautiful, laid back New York couple enjoy themselves on their wedding day anyway.

Regina and Tyler chose to have an outdoor wedding at a friends estate, by the name of Blossom Hill Estate. And a mistake they did not make because everything turned out super sweet and they partied on until the wee hours. But I should let you decide how much fun they had through the photos.

Regina wore a gorgeous dress by Amsale.

Amazing surprise dance by Regina’s bridesmaids.

Tyler Arboretum wedding with Rachel and Dave

It was one of those perfect days of September, just right to have an outdoor ceremony. And what better place than Tyler Arboretum to accommodate the marriage of two lovely people, Rachel and Dave. We fooled around with the bridal party for a bit and then perused the beautiful grounds of the arboretum for some portraits of the lucky couple. These two could not be more perfect for each other, i promise they couldn’t stop laughing from the first look to the end of the night.

How gorgeous is Rachel’s dress from Allure Bridal?!

And the personalized totes for the bridal party were super cute.

But not as cute as the bridesmaids dresses.

Groomsmen having a blast

Dave waiting for the first look of his bride.

And he sang to his bride, quite the voice mr Dave.

And their beautiful rings.

Marina and Chris’s wedding at The Merion of Cinnaminson, NJ

Wedding photography gods seem to have been on our side this time, although they do have to work a bit on that natural air conditioning unit. Weather aside, Marina and Chris chose a beautiful venue to have their wedding at, The Merion of Cinnaminson in New Jersey. After capturing their getting ready at Hotel ML we headed to the church where their ceremony took place, stained glass and all.

We played around the Merion grounds with the bridal party a bit and took advantage of their gorgeous interiors later, before heading to the main room for cocktail hour refreshments.

But enough with the blabber when I speak much better in photos.

Cake smash family portraits at Valley Forge Park

I’ve met this beautiful family through one of our previous wonderful clients and had a blast photographing their little one turning one year old. We even had a cake smash session and she had a great time doing it. But I should let you enjoy the photos we created at Valley Forge Park.

Marina and Chris Engagement at Franklin Square

The sun was kind enough to us on Monday at Franklin Square, just as Marina and Chris were, but the wind wasn’t too accepting of my light stand. I can’t wait to have these two in front of my camera very soon at the Merion in Cinnaminson. Enjoy the photos!

Brandywine Manor House wedding, Kristen and Zach

If one would not know that last Saturday Kristen and Zach had a rainy wedding day at Brandywine Manor House, one would not really know by the smiles on everyone’s faces. The atmosphere of the day was surely bright and quite hilarious at times, with many many laughs and tears along. When the couple absolutely enjoys the day, no matter what, we end up creating amazing photos to last a lifetime and beyond. And with such support form their amazing families no way the party wouldn’t turn out great.

The Inn at Barley Sheaf Farm hosts Samantha and Greg’s wedding

As hot and humid as June can be around these parts of the world, I gotta admit, the Inn at Barley Sheaf Farm made it a breeze to photograph the union between Samantha and Greg. At every step there was something to admire, from superb architecture to sculptures and paintings, in two words, a photographer’s dream.

After meeting their two beautiful german shepherds, you could feel they were eager to see their mom in the wedding dress, and they weren’t the only ones. Also today all my doubts that kids don’t love me are removed forever, all thanks to little Emily.

But I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves.

Caity and Dave “spray the date” at American Swedish Museum

American Swedish Museum

Give me a spray can, some skateboards, some mummers if possible, a happy couple, and I’ll show you how my brain works. After dropping off my second pair of eyes, Georgi, at Barber Shop Denim where the guys were getting their shaves on, I headed to the Racquet Club of Philadelphia where the girls were getting their hair did. (did I lose you there?)

There’s the handsome fella, happy as ever. Can you blame him? What did I say about those giggles earlier?And our gorgeous bride putting the final touches on. One of the proudest moments in a mom’s life, her daughter’s wedding.

And the wild Caitysmaids. Did I mention it was pretty hot outside? It’s always sunny in Philadelphia!
Dad’s turn to see his beautiful daughter. After their first look Caity and Dave were ready to rock some cool spots at FDR Park. Dave immortalizing their moment.The ladies enjoying one last touch of the man. Professional selfie, or regular photo, you decide. Do not try at home! And here we are at , ready to tie, you know, the knot.
Emotions run deep, but we’re ready to party at this point. Oh yea, I almost forgot the Mummers showed up and rocked some tunes.
