Erin and Fran – Overbrook Country Club Wedding

Saturday, September 3, 2011

Last weekend, Erin and Fran, were married at Overbrook Country Club, in Villanova. 1 day after a big rain storm and 1 day before hurricane Irene made her self known to the northeast, this Friday afternoon was nothing short of perfect for them. (Erin even prepared her galoshes just in case). We scheduled their first look for mid afternoon. They both lit up when they saw each other. Erin and Fran were both a ton of fun during their engagement session, and the fun continued through the wedding day! Everyone was so happy to be there, and the party at the end of the night just proved that.

Here’s their preview!

Courtney and Paul – Wedding

Saturday, July 2, 2011

A few weeks back, Courtney and Paul had their wedding at the Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania.

Meeting up with Courtney and her bridesmaids, 1 of who was a familiar face – I shot Keri’s bucks county wedding 2 years ago.

During the ceremony, Courtney had the biggest smile on her face the whole time, and Paul couldn’t keep his eyes off his beautiful bride.

The Arboretum is a beautiful place, and we had full access to all of the gardens. Getting shuttled around on the golf cart, the whole bridal party and I spent about an hour having fun and taking some great wedding pictures.

A casual reception under the tent with nice weather outside made for a great relaxed evening with their friends and family all around them!

Heather and Shaun – Wedding

Sunday, May 15, 2011

A chilly day a few weeks ago, I drove up to Macungie to photograph Heather and Shaun’s wedding. It was a small and very nice intimate wedding. As with most weddings, everyone was lots of smiles and so much fun to work with.

Heather’s dress was a very nice, classic lace gown, while Shaun was decked out in a pretty cool looking Zoot suit!

Towards the end of the reception, a couple of the guys brought out some “props” and we got a few pictures of everyone having fun. (at the bottom).

Erin and Fran – Engagement Session

Monday, April 25, 2011

Last weekend, I met up with Erin and Fran for their engagement session. We met on a beautiful day in Fairmount Park, right in front of the Valley Green Inn. As usual, during the engagement sessions, I just like to take the time to take with each couple and find out what makes them tick. We walked around for about an hour and shared a ton of laughs! They were both very relaxed from the start in front of the camera. That makes my job a lot easier! While it may be repetitive for me to say this, I’m really looking forward to their wedding!

Tiffany and Nate – Engagement Session

Tuesday, April 19, 2011

More Engagement sessions! More happy people, more smiles, more laughing . . . and more dogs!

I met up with Tiffany, Nate and Nate’s daughter at Ridley Creek State Park. I don’t know what it is this year, but I can’t get people to stop laughing while photographing their engagement pictures. Tiffany and Nate weren’t any different. Tons of laughs and just relaxed moods. The pups helped and a made an appearance in a few pictures. Bulldogs seem to be very easy to photograph, and Boxers are good for big sloppy (drooling) kisses.

Heather and Shaun – Engagement Session

Tuesday, April 5, 2011

Continuing with engagement session. I met up with Heather and Shaun for their engagement session at Green Lane Park. They brought their son with them, and he was adorable and cooperated so well!

Heather and Shaun are planning for a very small, but intimate wedding at the end of this month and it sounds like it is shaping up to be a very special night for everyone attending.

Here are a few shots from our time at the park.
