Here are a few images from a session I shot this December!  Simply Stunning!

Mike and Eileen had an amazing Friday afternoon wedding with something we rarely see anymore; sunshine!!  Pete Malone and I headed over the bridge to Jersey to the Cathedral of the Woods for the ceremony.  Then to the Westin in Mt. Laurel where the party was rockin’ thanks to DJ Matt of Synergetic Sounds and lighting. 

It was so nice to actually work with the sunlight and the photos definitely reflect that!  Enjoy!

It was yet another rainy October day like most of October was this year.  Luckily, we were able to get a break in the weather just at the right time.  We started our day at  Villanova Chapel followed by a photo session at The Willows.   The reception was at Overbrook Golf Club.  This is a super long post because I have so many favorites it was hard to choose.   Believe it or not I still didn’t post all that I wanted to.  Enjoy!

It’s that time of year again, the holidays are approaching.  Just like every holiday season, Jesse and I want to give back to the community, but more significantly we want  our children to realize the importance of giving to others so that they appreciate the very blessed life they have.

This year, just like last year, is going to be a tough economic year for charities.  Most people are going to have enough trouble providing their own families with a full and gift filled holiday season.  So here is this year’s proposal:

Just like last year, I will shoot one 2010 wedding this year for FREE!  If one couple out there is willing to donate $2,750 you will receive all of this…

Feel Good Package includes:
8 hours of wedding day coverage
500 proofs unmarked and yours to keep
Slide show at reception of photographer’s favorites
Online imaging gallery
High resolution DVD of all edited images

PLUS the experience of joining our family on a huge shopping spree for a family in need so that we can give them an awesome Christmas that they won’t forget!  This year we have decided to  Adopt a Family through the Greater Philadelphia Cares Organization.  Here’s a link to some photos of last year’s shopping spree. Thanks to First Floor Films, for this video of last year’s shopping spree as well. We had a blast!

Steph & Neal were married this past Saturday. ( I can’t remember the last time I blogged a wedding the Monday after!) I am catching up!   Autumn is my favorite time of year but I am bummed that so many weddings are getting rained out.  However, I am so glad that we did a little something special to make their wedding photos amazing! 

Thanks, to Pete Malone for second shooting with me AGAIN! 

So have you ever heard the expression “Don’t put off till tomorrow what you can do today?”  Well in this case we DID put off until tomorrow….and boy are we glad we did!  These are some of my favorites from our day after session .  Sunday was a gorgeous day!  I had a portrait cancellation so I asked Steph and Neal to come out and get the photos they should of got on their wedding day.  This worked out great!

I love working at the Morris Arboretum!  There are a lot of reason for this,  I will share with you my top two.  

Reason 1: The grounds there are by far the best for wedding photography. See below if you don’t believe me!

Reason 2: I know when I am working the Morris Arboretum,  I am working with the BEST catering company in the Philly area!  I am talking about Company’s Coming of course.  Josh’s food is so yummy.   I look forward to these wedding for months knowing Josh is cooking me dinner!  At arboretum weddings, I am always surrounded by familiar faces.  I enjoyed working with Steve from Classic Entertainment we always have a blast working together.  I also want to give a shout out to Knight Kitchen Bakery whose cakes are probably the best I have ever tasted! (that says something, because I have tasted  a lot of wedding cake.)  Yet another reason I look forward to Arboretum weddings.

My husband and I have known Fred forever.  He is quite possibly one of my favorite people in the whole wide world.  We have spent many a late night together watching UFC.  I kinda appoint myself stand in “Mommy” for little Declan on these nights.  Lindsay is always working and by the time I get home from whatever wedding I am shooting that day, I try to give Fred a break.  I love that kid!  So when Fred asked me to photograph his wedding I was more than thrilled to do it!

Their wedding day was georgeous!  Lots of Sun, bright blue skies.  The picture perfect day!  It was my first time at The Hotel Hershey and I was really impressed!  That place was amazing, with lots of great photo opts.  We were lucky enough to get the amazing Pete Malone out not only to second shoot but he took over after dinner so I could enjoy the party without having to work.  He did an awesome job!  Thanks Pete!

Congratulation Fred & Lindsey!  See you tomorrow Fred!!!

Everything from here down was shot by Pete!
