Jenn and Marc’s wedding was just as heartfelt and lovely as we knew it would be. The ceremony was my favorite part, located in the boathouse just a short path from Mallard Island Yacht Club. Huge stone fireplace adorned with bright spring flowers, large windows, and open air sides… all elements for beautiful pictures, particularly […]

Sneak peek of Jenn + Marc’s rainy/sunny/rainy wedding where the clouds parted just when it counted. And thank you for that.

Grier and Jonathan’s wedding featured elegant ivory, gold, and crimson details, and a beautiful interior lined with candles at the Hotel du Pont . A perfect mood set for the cold wintery night. The Knot asked if they could share this modern wedding in the latest Pennsylvania & Delaware issue, check it out! To see their […]

Introducing Kate and Ben. We knew we’d get along with these two just fine because of where they’re getting married – a place we’ve been waiting and waiting to shoot in, the cool and creepy College of Physicians in Philadelphia. Truly a gem of a place and the home of the Mutter Museum. Where else […]

Back at Congress Hall for another winter Super 8mm wedding. And yet again, another gorgeous and unseasonably warm day to film. This time I’m filming Justine and Daniel, a fun-time, travel-bound couple living in Brooklyn and getting married in Justine’s hometown, Cape May. I have many things in common with these two…the first being a […]

I shot this wedding 39.5 weeks pregnant and couldn’t have asked for a sweeter family to be documenting at such a time. Dutch was shooting Super8 film on this one (see in previous post) and we had our trusty sidekick Hieu and our Associate photographer Matt shooting alongside (doubled up just in case I went […]

A candlelit, romantic winter wedding ceremony at the Fairmount Park Horticulture Center and a wild, rollicking reception afterwards. This was a great one…

I’d be willing to bet that when Kaitlyn and Brad met one of the two was dancing. More specifically, spinning while dancing. They’re both so good at it. Just watch the film and see how anyone who hangs out with either one of them ends up spinning. Kids can’t stop spinning. Even Kaitlyn’s dress spins […]

We were both excited and nervous for Katie and Charlie’s wedding. Not for the obvious reasons that usually go along with shooting a wedding – not missing a moment, keeping everyone on schedule, traffic, etc. But mainly because Julie was due to deliver our first baby anytime around that weekend. So you could say there […]

Nana Betty is at it again! We were thrilled that The Knot chose one of Sweetwater’s weddings as the Top 9 Viral Weddings of 2015. In case you missed it, our bride Christine asked her 89-year old grandmother, Nana Betty, to be her bridesmaid. Soon after we posted the pictures of her fun-loving grandma looking […]

I love when we start a relationship with a new client so easily. Rosemary’s parents live a block away and I was chatting with her dad one day in the dog park about a wedding we’d just photographed and he said, hey, my daughter’s getting married! And there you have it. We then met Rosemary […]

The Brits felt right at home at Catherine and Dan’s Appleford Estate wedding with the lush gardens and damp rainy weather. They played up the American/British marriage with flags, traditional fruit cake (made by Catherine’s mom), whiskey bar, Rolls Royce and of course, big beautiful hats and fascinators. Perfectly executed, the Queen would be proud. […]

As the fall air gets chilly, I was just thinking about how much I loved Christie’s leather moto jacket she wore to her wedding last year. It was a cold day in November, a storm was brewing and it was quite windy. Christie decided she wanted to brave the elements and while we were only […]

Part 2 of Janine and Chris’s lakeside wedding, s’mores, campfires and all around good times…

This is a good story. Chris’s family’s home sits on the shore of Lake George in upstate New York. Janine’s family’s home sits a mere 3 minute walk through the pines from Chris’s. The two met when they were teenagers and spent the next 5 summers flirting and water skiing together (they even had their […]

After the s’mores, the water skiing, and the wedding, this final picture we took pretty much sums it up… Check back on Friday for more!

A gorgeous Chesapeake Bay waterfront wedding at The Oaks in Maryland. It was a fun, relaxed day and we couldn’t be happier for Kelley and Bryan. And though their frisky dog Alvin didn’t make it to their wedding (he was the star of their engagement session in his bow tie and we’re still telling the […]

Have you seen this fun-loving, 89 year-old bridesmaid? Of course you have! Unless you’ve been living in a cave, you’ve seen her radiant smile popping up on every news feed, blog and tv station in site. Nana Betty has gone viral. We photographed this lovely lady at her granddaughter Christine’s wedding this spring. Nana Betty […]

Joe surprised Megan on the wedding day with a gift I fully support…Super8. Megan had no idea until I entered the room rolling film. To say the least, she was shocked (and legend has it she was still muttering moments before I entered how she wish she had made it happen). These two lived their […]

Super8 amplifies any scenario, in any setting. Give it an elegant location like Overbrooke Golf Club and it enhances the classico look though its manual lens. Roll up to your wedding in an antique Ford Fairlane and the film feels like archival footage from the 50’s. The flicker of the camera gives you a permission slip […]
