Lending a hand to my good friend and fellow Philly8 member, David Zaveloff, a few of us worked together to cover Erin and Waiel’s wedding at the AWESOME Turbine Hall in Chester, right on the Delaware River.

Turbine Hall is a converted PECO power plant that now houses a few corporate offices, and one of the Philadelphia areas newest and different reception hall.

Aldie Mansion Wedding Photos – 2nd shoot

Erik — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 01:13:32 +0000

Well, I have finally made it through the crazy (and fantastic) wedding season. I have a BUNCH of images to catch up on.

To start, here is a wedding from Aldie Mansion that I shot along with Barton Paul. I got to shoot with the Canon 200mm f/2.0 IS lens. It’s a whopper of a lens, but it is awesome! This is also one of the first times that I got to use the 24mm f/1.4 lens (before I bought it). I was hooked from the beginning.

Beth and Steve – 2nd shoot

Erik — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 20:17:56 +0000

Meeting up with my good friend and fellow Philly wedding photographer (Philly8) member, Mark Gardner, we traveled south down to Cape May, NJ for Beth and Steve’s wedding.

This group, from the very beginning, was all about having a good time. Everyone was in such a good and relaxed mood, it made our job so much easier – and even more fun! I was really excited to see that Beth choose an non-white dress. It was close to a blue-ish color wedding dress – very cool! and the black shoes just added to it!

The reception was held at the renowned Congress Hall with the sounds of the evening provided by the talented crew of Synergetic Sounds (coincidentally based locally out of Bensalem).
