08.22.08    Trini, Josh & Ari

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

We love when couples are up for anything! Josh and Trini agreed to our crazy plan to photograph their engagement session at an old, broken down factory. They didn’t mind all the weeds and ruins everywhere. We all had so much fun, and Trini and Josh said that it felt “like we were in a photo shoot for a a cool magazine. I think we both fulfilled our secret inner desire to act like we are high fashion models.” Trini’s daughter Ari had a blast too.
The couple will be married in May, 2010 in Philadelphia. Congratulations! We are looking forward to your wedding day.

Eva - Trini and Josh... We've been friends for a LONG time and I am so happy for you guys! Your pics look great and your only problem now is choosing! Love you guys! Eva

08.16.08     Lindsay & Matt

Monday, August 25th, 2008

The weather was perfect last Saturday.  Lindsay and Matt couldn’t have asked for a better day to have their outdoor ceremony at Rehoboth Beach Country Club.  The blues and greens in the colors went perfectly with the amazing backdrop and the splashes of hot pink in the flowers were stunning.  Since both Matt and Lindsay’s dad are fly fisherman, there were fishing flies in each boutonniere and on the invitations!  Lindsay is the first of four daughters in her family to tie the knot.  The connection between Lindsay and Matt was beautiful.  It was an emotion-filled day, with the perfect full moon ending.Congratulations!  Enjoy Hawaii! mike, Angelique, Pete & Ryan  0851_bloomsberry.jpg

08.16.08    Kerry & Alfred

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

Kerry and Alfred chose the wonderful Curtis Center in Philadelphia for their wedding day and Joe Volpe of Chescaphe provided amazing food and decorations. The favors were such a cute idea - the note about the donation that the couple made had wild flower seeds imbedded in the paper!
Jellyroll kept guests dancing all night.

Kerry and Al were such a pleasure to work with all day. Congratulation! Enjoy your honeymoon.

Mary and Matt are getting married next May at the Kimmel Center in Philadelphia, but they absolutely love the beach so that is where we headed for their engagement session yesterday. The weather stayed nice even though is stormed back at home. The light was perfect. Even Oliver - the couples Yorkie mix enjoyed posing for photos.
We walked on the beach, ate pizza and ice cream, and had a lot of fun at the amusement park. I can’t wait to start working on the design of Matt and Mary’s engagement sign-in album. Congratulations! It was great working with you.

Check out all the fun Mary Kaye and David had during their engagement session. We went to the Brandywine Battlefield in Chadds Ford since David loves history.
And how about some tasty ice cream form Woodside Farm to finish up a great photo session. We love when couples are up for an adventure. It creates excellent photo opportunities.
Mary Kaye and David will be married at the Villanova Chapel and host their reception at the Ballroom at the Ben in early December.
Congratulations! We can’t wait to capture your day.

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

Liz and Mark lived across from one another when they first met in college. Their relationship blossomed and they tied the knot last weekend in Philadelphia. Liz got ready at the Ritz Carlton and she wore a unique Monique Lhuillier dress. The ceremony was held at St. Patrick’s Church and from there we walked to Rittenhouse Square for the couple’s romantic and family photos. The reception was catered by Finley Catering at the Crystal Tea Room. Liz and Mark were up for anything, even taking a stroll on Broad Street after dark.
Congratulations to both of you and your amazing families! Enjoy Greece!
