Reading Terminal Market Wedding

By | Weddings | One Comment

I have a serious problem where I am completely unable to bring down the photo count on my blog posts! Maybe I overshare but I just love the details that my brides choose as well as so many moments throughout their day. And when their friends and family make you feel like you’ve known them for ages, it’s difficult to not share! Allison and Eamon’s Reading Terminal Market wedding was perfection! I knew from the first time we met for their engagement session that this wedding was going to be fun! I’m pretty sure I even said that to the staff at All About Events when we were speaking about when we would work together again. Allison & Eamon are kind, relaxed, classy, fun, quirky, and make you feel so comfortable to be around. I know it is usually my job to make my couples feel comfortable but these two just made me feel like we have known each other for ages.

The day started at the Loews hotel where the couple got ready and did their first look right on that beautiful staircase leading to the ballrooms. We walked to City Hall, Dilworth Park, and Pafa for their photos then very conveniently ended up practically on the doorstep of the Friends Center where their ceremony took place. The ceremony was thoughtful and touching and heartfelt with Allison’s sister as the officiant and their dog Reggie as the ring bearer. After they said I do everyone partied down at the Reading Terminal Market which, if you don’t know me very well, is my favorite place!! I have always loved the market because I love food but photographing weddings there just takes my obsession to a new level!

Enjoy the photo overload and congratulations to the newlyweds!

Long Beach Island Engagement Session

By | Engagements | No Comments

Stephanie and Kyle’s Long Beach Island engagement session was the perfect way to close out the summer! The Sunday evening drive to LBI was so enjoyable without the typical shore traffic. We started the session at Barnegat Light – Stephanie, Kyle, myself, their dog…and Stephanie’s parents! We took some hilarious photos with mom and dad that I won’t share here but I’m thinking that in the future, if more parents want to tag along to the engagement sessions, it might be awesome!

After we wrapped up at Barnegat Light we made our way to the beach in LBI to catch a gorgeous golden sunset along with a champagne toast! So there are a few things that define me as a person, one of them being how much I love the city and really don’t like nature and/or bugs. The second is that I have a major fear of balloons popping and opening champagne bottles. So when a couple brings bottles of champagne to their session and wants to pop them open in my general direction, I panic. I gave very strict rules to pop those bottles AWAY from my face and just prayed that I got the photos in focus as I cowardly made my body as small as possible so as to not get hit with multiple corks. And it all worked out perfectly.

Thank you Stephanie and Kyle for an awesome session, not hitting me with champagne corks, for running into the ocean, and for doing endless dress twirls. Also, thank you to Mr. and Mrs. S for being good sports 😉

Desmond Hotel Wedding

By | Weddings | No Comments

Down-to-Earth, kind, and easy-going are just some of the words I would use to describe Abby and Zach. I loved them from our first meeting when they were still planning their Desmond Hotel wedding. We grabbed coffee at an adorable little shop in Philly and then met again for their engagement photos on a chilly day in the city. I stalked their instagrams and love seeing the awesome things they are up to and how much fun they have living their lives together. When their wedding day finally arrived I just couldn’t wait to celebrate with them and document each moment! The Desmond Hotel was perfect for their classic and romantic wedding vibe and was even close to a few fantastic locations for photos. I may have added too many photos from their day to this blog post but it was difficult to narrow them down. Abby’s gown was just beautiful, the details were clean and flawless, and you can’t ignore the huge smiles on everyone’s faces all day. Friends and family were more than excited to celebrate alongside Abby and Zach, as were all of the vendors! Congratulations to the newlyweds and best wishes on a wonderful and happy marriage!
