Kristi and Keith - Merion Tribute House wedding

Kristi and Keith were married a few weeks ago at the wonder venue, The Merion Tribute House.  The grounds of this secluded mansion are gorgeous.  Hidden back in Lower Merion, this is a wedding destination I hope to be at more and more. Their day started off with me meeting up with the girls, and my second shooter (Jeremy Evans Thomas) meeting with the guys.   The girls were very easy to work with and like the engagement session, Kristi was still a ton of laughs and smiles.  With her mom and grandmother near, Kristi prepped while the bridesmaids hustled around.  Eventually we all headed to the church for the wedding ceremony - presided by Kristi's pastor from when she attended Temple university.  From the ceremony, we moved on to the Merion Tribute House.  Powered by the sounds of the awesome band, Kristi and Keith's families and friends kept the dance floor full the whole night.

Enjoy!

Sonia and Steve - Engagement Session

Last week I met up with Sonia and Steve at the Philadelphia Art Museum.  Taking advantage of the gorgeous weather, we walked around the outside of one of Philadelphia's most famous buildings.  Using the beautiful sunlight and also the skyline in the background, we had a really fun time with their engagement session.  

Erin and Fran - Overbrook Country Club Wedding

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!

This awesome moment below, was captured by my second shooter of the day: Ashley Bartoletti

Baby Will

Just over a month ago, my little sister - ok she's only 3 years younger, but will always be my little sister, Leeah and her husband welcomed their first baby into the family!!!  There's a lot of ways to celebrate the 4th of July, but what better way than a little baby!   Everyone in the family is super excited and happy for the new parents, Leeah and Will - especially this uncle/godfather that lives next door! Just over a week after Will, V - (Yes... That's the 5th), was born, I took some pictures.  Having a few ideas in mind, Baby Will came over - but he was a bit fussy that day - maybe it was being inside on the nice day.  So we walked outside.  That's when the sun started shining and I started taking just some casual pictures of Leeah holding him.

Here's a few from then... expect PLENTY more as he grows - that's what any uncle/godfather/photographer does....right? ;)

Chrissy and Ryan - Engagement Session

Last weekend, I made the trip down to see Chrissy and Ryan.  If they look familiar, that's because Chrissy is Lisa's sister and Ryan is Mike's brother!  It's pretty cool to see these two again since the wedding.  We headed down to the beach for their engagement session right near one of the pier's in Ventnor City,  just south of Atlantic City.  We started off with their little Lola tagging along for a few pics, then continued just the 3 of us. The light was perfect that day, but as the sun set, I used a little photography magic (flash :D) and got some unique engagement sunset pictures for them!  Once I look at the image on the camera, I know if I got the shot or not.... and after this session... I knew I got it!

Enjoy!!
