These two had some serious style. Lesley’s retro updo was the perfect mix of daring and elegant, my favorite of the year. I love when someone takes a risk with their look that really expresses their personality and style. Nate looked dashing as always, especially in those shades. What can we say, we had a […]

I love when the couples we’re photographing can relax and look at each other in a way that’s real, not because I asked them to, but because they are together at this very moment in the golden sun. It’s not easy to be photographed, or maybe it’s not easy to forget that you’re being photographed. […]

The little bit of rain Lara and John had on their wedding day was just enough to give an ethereal quality to the light. Just lovely. The veil blowing, the mist, and two people so happy it could have been a torrential rainstorm and I don’t think either of them would have cared. The night […]

First of all, I had the pleasure of photographing Jill and Zach’s rehearsal dinner at Percy Street BBQ. Perfect spot for a fun, rowdy, lip-smacking party before the big day. BBQ and weddings just go hand in hand (ok, not really, but Dutch and I had bbq at our own wedding so I’m partial). I […]

They drove from Michigan. They thought Philadelphia’s City Hall was a beautiful building, perfect place to elope and be married. So why not? Road trip! Extra special, amazing, life-altering road trip. They brought along their Self-Uniting Marriage Certificate and met me at City Hall. First step, find two witnesses. That was fun! Dilworth Plaza was […]

Anna and Glenn are getting married this weekend! Though we were already booked for their wedding date, we had the pleasure of photographing them for their engagement session last fall. Best of luck to them this Saturday!

It couldn’t get much more dramatic than being on the 51th floor balcony of The Top of the Tower just as a storm was passing. We had ominous dark skies to the south slashed with pops of heat lightning, Jeri’s gown was blowing in whispy clouds around her hips and John’s face looked like he […]

It seems to be the year of rainy weddings, but once again we got lucky. At Diane and Dean’s, we got in a few minutes of outdoor pictures before it started raining (again). Ever prepared, QA Designs team pulled out the umbrellas and we took cover! Maybe twenty minutes later the rain passed and we […]

So, if you saw Jeri and John’s engagement session post, you’ll remember that John has a thing for weather. No, he loves weather. Since he was a kid, he’s been obsessed with it. He also loves photography. In John’s opinion, nothing could be better than a great big lightning storm happening outside the windows of […]

Kate and Ben got married in a museum known for medical oddities (which made us love them from the start). A stroll past the wedding cake and down the stairs leads you to highlights such as the conjoined liver of famous Siamese twins Chang and Eng. And the skeleton of the tallest giant in North […]

Besides an elopement we photographed with just the bride and groom, Rachel and Bill’s was the smallest, most intimate wedding we’ve ever photographed. It was delightful. Close family and a handful of friends, 16 in total. Just enough to fill the upstairs table at Vetri. Yes, Vetri. They did it right. Perhaps the best dinner […]

A cheese cake, ladies and gentlemen. No, not cheesecake. We are literally talking about a tower of cheese. And since Eric is a chef and built the cake himself, you can imagine he used some deliciously stinky cheese, too. It was divine. Love this wedding, these two people, this whole group of friends and family. […]

We can’t get enough of this garden wedding. Terrain is so charming and as for Larissa and Eric, well, they’re just about as cute as you can find. They’re also our neighbors, our friends, and dog park buddies…we actually met through Doc and Leo, woof woof.

Larissa pulled up wearing her mother’s wedding dress, a leather moto jacket, a big grin, and happy sad tears. Her mamma would have been so proud. Heart of gold, this girl. We have so many beautiful pictures of her and Eric’s Terrain wedding to share, but on Mother’s Day, I just had to post this […]

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.

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 […]

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 […]

We were thrilled when we heard Style Me Pretty wanted to feature Jessica and Zack’s beautifully colored fall wedding at the Kimmel Center. With unique floral and paper design by La Petite Fleur, a mix of chic and rich colors filled the space. Check out Style Me Pretty’s feature here To see more of Jessica […]

We’d been waiting a long time for Megan and Joe’s wedding. They’re design-savvy, artistic, and totally open-minded about letting us do our thing. They chose Front & Palmer, an industrial chic wedding venue in Philadelphia, to fill with their romantic-urban mix of a hand-painted backdrops, letterpress (yes DIY), flowers, and these amazing little lanterns they […]
