A Union League wedding is always classy, but Sarah and Jordan’s was utterly glamorous. Maybe it was Sarah’s extraordinary gown or the elegance in how she wore it, maybe it was Papertini’s gorgeous blooms, or perhaps it was just the vibe brought by Sarah and Jordan’s personalities. Sarah and Jordan couldn’t have been nicer. Though these […]

As anyone who follows our blog may know, we love winter. We love snow and mountains and even the cold. One of our official first dates was Julie organizing a multi-day cross country ski/winter camping expedition. Now I’m game for camping and the cold and mountains but you have to know that I’m interested in […]

A few favorites from this stunning Union League wedding because I just can’t wait any longer.

Front & Palmer weddings always have cool couples. It’s industrial chic with modern art chandeliers and exquisite food. It sits under the el in Kensington and has a chill, urban vibe. It’s the antithesis of a ballroom wedding and it fit Erika and Mike perfectly. Also, it was in their ‘hood! A couple of favorite things […]

A rockabilly wedding at Hill Country BBQ, can’t think of any place more fitting for Alisha and Ryan’s wedding. Alisha in her June Carter-esque blue lace wedding dress. Short and sassy, just like her. She wore cowboy boots and my favorite tattoo – Dale Cooper’s face in a mug of coffee (fun fact, Alisha met Kyle MacLachlan […]

If we had to choose one type of location to shoot in forever, a farm and it’s land and inhabitants would be our choice. I can speak for Julie here as well. I mean, she did grow up on a wheat farm in the middle of big sky Montana. So you know she feels at […]

A Kimmel Center Wedding is always a favorite here at Sweetwater. That light streaming through the atrium above the Hamilton Garden makes for gorgeous portraits no matter what time of year, rain or shine. Sara and Chris were lucky to have had one of those unseasonably warm days in late October that were so abundant this fall. […]

Alex and Nate are having their wedding at Bok next year. We’re super excited. Not only do we love that space for urban chic funky weddings, but we’re going to be moving our studio over to Bok this winter as well. It’s the place to be. Gorgeous views of the city and all of the old […]

Moyo Yoga is a brand-new wedding venue and yoga retreat with a historic red barn and beautiful trees. Given it’s relaxed vibe, rustic landscaping and beauty, it was a perfect fit for Julia and Brett. Julia got ready at a gorgeous historic house (air bnb wins again!) nearby. All the bridesmaids helped with each other’s hair and makeup and […]

A gorgeous day for a Jersey Shore beach wedding, Alison and Craig had such a relaxed, fun-filled wedding day at The Reeds at Shelter Haven in Stone Harbor. We couldn’t be happier for these two sweethearts.

I would almost say Harrison stole the show. Almost. He is adorable with big brown eyes and blond curls. When Candace read him “vows” during their ceremony, promising to be a devoted new mommy to this boy she has already loved dearly, he gazed into her eyes the entire time. Patient and true. Then when […]

There are many favorite things about this film and the day we spent with Jackie and Tim. These two set themselves up for the exact day they wanted to share with family and friends. The secret was in the preparations, time and outlook on how everything unfolded. Let’s be honest, they had perfect weather on […]

What a gorgeous place for a wedding. The Michener Art Museum made it feel like Amanda and Greg’s wedding was in the English countryside rather than in the middle of Doylestown. From the pretty courtyard ceremony to the modern glass walled reception, this is one of our favorite venues in Bucks County for a wedding. Amanda […]

We had been looking forward to Keri and Kelly’s wedding for a long time and it was exactly as lovely as we envisioned it. These two and their crew (each had their brother stand up as their Man of Honor) were so much fun. Full of laughter and smiles, sweet glances and tender touch. They have the […]

Some of our favorite people, all together in one bucolic village filled with farm animals, apple trees, barns, vegetable gardens, and an occasional ghost wearing colonial clothes that truly scared us. Emma and Matt’s wedding at Old Bethpage Restoration Village was so full of joy and beauty. I’ve never seen a barn with such incredibly […]

Simran and Kevin’s wedding at the Please Touch Museum was spectacular. The day started off in our favorite Philly boutique hotel in Old City, Lokal. Filled with light and cool vintage finds, it was the perfect place to photograph Simran and Kevin getting ready with True Beauty Marks. From the rich, overflowing golden-hued bouquet by Devon & […]

Simran and Kevin’s Indian American wedding in Philadelphia was just incredible. From the Sikh ceremony on Friday to their elegant museum reception on Saturday, every piece of the celebration was perceptive and beautifully designed (thanks in part to Laurel and Elm!). The baraat is my favorite tradition at an Indian wedding and Simran and Kevin’s did not disappoint. It started with […]

They hold tight to one another and the courage they possess when together is more than the sum of two parts. That’s the beauty of love. You face everything head on, with your chin lifted and your lover’s hand held close to your heart. Please send Katrina and Colin positive vibes as they face another big challenge this week.

Dutch and I styled this shoot to inspire elopement ideas in Montana. We love elopements. They’re simple, intimate, and wildly free. It’s just you and the one you love in your favorite spot, exchanging rings. There’s something very pure about that. We actually got married in Montana ourselves at the base of a mountain at a […]
