Spray Beach Yacht Club Wedding:
Alissa + Kyle

You’d never know that Hurricane Sandy devastated this area just one year ago. On Alissa and Kyle’s wedding day, LBI looked as beautiful as ever. Alissa and Kyle met sailing and since they were getting married just one block from the beach, you would think you’re about to see some pictures of the bride and […]

Union League Wedding: Suzie + Tom

Suzie and Tom have a passion for design and style, it’s obvious from the moment you meet them. They give attention to every detail and their wedding was a blank canvas to create on. The reception at the historic Union League was candle-lit, draped in black and gold, and filled with Gatsby-inspired details. Super romantic. […]

Meagan and Massimo, they burn bright. People are drawn to them, encircled by their warmth, fueled by their energy, creativity.  Their wedding was packed with friends, all wildly funny, from coast to coast.

Welkinweir Estate Wedding:
Allison + Michael

The pastoral Welkinweir Estate is as beautiful as they come for an outdoor Pennsylvania wedding. It’s rustic and secluded, full of old towering trees, and almost big enough to lose yourself in. Allison and Michael had a gorgeous fall day which we took advantage of by exploring Welkinweir’s many hidden gems (barn ruins!). We started […]

A Backyard, Black Tie Wedding:
Nishali + Jeremy

You wouldn’t know it looking at these sunny pictures, but Nishali and Jeremy’s wedding reception was almost washed away. Short story – it rained so hard during the first dance and through the toasts that the dance floor flooded, generators shorted out and the edge tables were soaked. My point in even mentioning the deluge […]

An Indian wedding celebration:
Nishali + Jeremy

What can we say? It was a phenomenal day. So much joy! Swirling, dancing, drumming.  It was a hot day, real hot. It was the Indian-wedding-party-day preceding Nishalil and Jeremy’s wedding (in which the heat was replaced by the biggest deluge we have ever witnessed. by far). But that story is for tomorrow. On this […]

Sylvan Lake Lodge Wedding:
Hana + Wes

We could tell a story about each image from Hana and Wes’s wedding at the historic Sylvan Lake Lodge in Custer State Park. It was Hana’s passion, Wes’s thoughtfulness, their family’s generosity and genuineness. It was one of the most spiritual and joyful events we’ve ever photographed. A few of our favorite moments… When Wes’s […]

Cira Centre Atrium Wedding:
Daphne + Jack

It’s not often that we photograph morning weddings, but when we do it’s so refreshing. Daphne and Jack’s wedding at the Cira Centre Atrium at JG Domestic was on a rainy Sunday morning that made the light absolutely perfect as it poured through the wall of windows and lit the room. Daphne and Jack’s wedding […]

Atrium at the Curtis Center Wedding:
Stephanie + Andrew

Look at this girl’s smile! I overheard that Andrew loves it, too : ) It was a gorgeous spring day for a Villanova Chapel wedding even though the weather man predicted downpours. Maybe that’s why the wind (big, gusty wind!) didn’t bother Stephanie a bit and her veil flying through the air made for the […]

Faunbrook Wedding: Dana + Nick

Dana and Nick’s wedding at Faunbrook Bed & Breakfast was about as DIY as it gets. From the “poof’s made out of coffee filters (500-700 each!) to painting signs to designing the entire table top, Dana was the driving creative force and her family helped execute every part. My favorite detail was probably the simplest […]

Aldie Mansion Wedding: Nora + Patrick

I knew this was going to be fun the first time I met Nora and Patrick; Patrick started talking about how he’d like some kind of creepy picture in the cemetery at Aldie Mansion after their wedding. I was intrigued. I am a huge fan of photographs that have a dark surrealism to them so […]
