Jessica + Douglass
Jessica and Douglass brought along the youngest member of their family for a portrait in the park. Their little pug loved the portrait session and was so very cooperative! They will be getting married at the new and beautiful One Atlantic in Atlantic City. Beka Rendell and Kimberly Fink of Innove Events are working with Jessica and Doug on planning a really beautiful event. Can’t wait!
Lindsay + Justin
Springtime is finally in full bloom but Lindsay and Justin wanted an autumn feel to their engagement portraits. I’ll be photographing their November wedding on the magnificent campus of Princeton University. With their ceremony at Princeton Chapel and their reception at the historic Victorian mansion Prospect House it should be picture perfect. The fall foliage should be in full bloom.
Alexandra + John
Ali and John were up from Pensacola, Florida, where John is training as a pilot, and found time for a little engagement session. Due to the long and snowy winter, things have not turned green yet in the Northeast but we did find a lovely bed of daffodils! They will be back when things are green in September for a beautiful wedding at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia. Congratulations Ali and John!
Meghan + Peter
It was a beautiful day for a winter walk in the woods, and what a perfect “woods” it was for Meghan and Peter. Their story so touched my heart that I just had to share it with you. The couple requested that we do their engagement portraits at the Germantown Academy. It seems that back in the 6th grade the couple met when Meghan enrolled. The amazing thing is, they have been together ever since, even attending college together! How special is that; to have a partner in life that you have shared so much history with. In September they will be taking another step on their special journey in life, they will be getting married! Congratulations Meghan and Peter!
Jenna + Tony
OK, is this just the cutest idea for a save the date card? Have your pooch let everyone know. Jenna and Tonys dog was the most well behaved boxer I ever met. He just perfectly posed for his “closeup” (as did his mom and dad)! I wonder if he will be invited to the wedding. The couple will be getting married at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, NJ next Spring. It’s my first time photographing a wedding there and I can’t wait. This past fall Donald Trumps own daughter Ivanka was married at the golf club!
Things to come….
I’ve been so busy with my beautiful 2009 wedding that I have not had the time to post some of my engagement shoots from my 2010 couples. It looks like 2010 is going to be a real banner year for weddings. I have already booked so many fabulous events I can hardly wait! Here are just a few of the couples I will be photographing.
I’m so excited about Jenna and Andrews wedding next fall. Their wedding is going to take place at The Please Touch Museum in Philadelphia. What a fabulous place! It comes complete with antique Carousel.
Caitlin and Drew will be getting married next fall the the most beautiful Union League of Philadelphia. I always love my Union League weddings, with the historic architecture of the ballroom and with Wedding Planner Gina Sole I know it’s going to be a very grand affair!
Yet another wedding I’ll be doing with wedding planner Gina Sole, Jennifer and Michael will be getting married at The Park Hyatt Philadelphia at the Bellevue next Summer. Always a location for very grand weddings it’s wrap around balcony makes for the most dramatic reception images. Congratulations to all my 2010 couples!
Holly and John
I tell everyone how beautiful the park around the corner from my house is, waterfall and all. Is this couple too cute! It rained on their engagement shoot so I think this guarantees them a sunny wedding day! I will be photographing their very grand wedding next September at the Four Seasons in Philadelphia. Can’t wait!
Carolyn + Steven
I had a wonderful day at the beach last week with Carolyn and Steven. Steve, a hopeless romantic, wanted their engagement portraits taken on the beach where he proposed to Carolyn, Ocean City, NJ. It’s been rather soggy this summer in the northeast, but they could not have chosen a more perfect day. I hope their wedding in December with be as beautiful! I’ll be photographing their fall wedding at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia. The space is just incredible and with Eclatante and Beautiful Blooms working on the décor, I know it’s going to be very grand!
Diana + Noah
I had a fun time last week walking around the Society Hill area of Philadelphia with Diana and Noah. What a charming part of time and we even found a playground with double slides. Diana had her heart set on a Philadelphia mural. I did not realize there there were no murals in that part of town. We drove around and finally found one. Very fall looking, don’t you think? I’m looking forward to photographing Diana and Noahs wedding next spring at The Audubon Center in Audubon, PA.
Susan + Tony
Next year I will be photographing Susan and Tonys wedding at Mallard Island Yacht Club down at Long Beach Island, NJ. The couple obviously has a strong appreciation for the arts as they chose to do their engagement portraits at The Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ. It’s one of my favorite locations for portraits and it’s only a 10 minute drive from my home! There are so many imaginative areas for diverse portraits I do get carried away. If all the foliage and sculptures were not enough, a friendly peacock decided to get in the act. He did not budge from his perch when the couple went near. I hope their wedding day is as beautiful as the perfect May morning we had!
Lisa was wonderful to work with. She wanted a unique twist to her already beautiful weddings. The bubble boy, electric violinist, butterfly puppet and bird girls were just what she had in mind!
Art of Love- Your photos are fantastic!! Bravo!
Best of luck to the Lisa and Richard the Bride and Groom from Amy and her performers!
