I met Devin & Michael Tuesday night for their engagement shoot around Philadelphia. I love letting people pick spots for shoots because they're always so interesting to me. D + M live in the city, so we hit some of their favorite spots, the place they met and some landmarks. All in all a great night. Traffic almost didn't let it happen, but we pushed through. Enjoy!...

Independence Hall...


My favorite shot I've taken in a while...

Emily & Nathan are some pretty sweet people. They live way out in Central PA (I'm refraining from making any jokes about Central Penn)... and came out for a long weekend for their shoot. We really hit the perfect day. The leaves have officially turned, the weather is perfect and it's just prime time for photography. Had a great time with these two, look for them again 2 summers from now! Shot on Monday at St. Peter's Village, my little gem of a spot. Enjoy...





Some maternity shots (at their request)...

Friday, I was at the Brandywine River Museum with Ashley and Geoff. We moved the shoot up to avoid the rain, which turned out to be a great decision. We had some really nice light, and some fantastic fall colors. There's really nothing better than a beautiful fall day in Pennsylvania. Ashley + Geoff came in all the way from Minnesota for the weekend, so thanks guys for making the trip. They got my apparently coveted May 22 date, since I've had about a million requests for that date. Looking forward to the wedding guys! Enjoy...

Earlier this week, I went to Ginger + Steve's place in Philly. We walked around UPenn and found some cool spots to shoot. I just love shooting in the city. It makes me feel like a weiner for living in the 'burbs. These two are getting married next year at one of my favorite venues. I'm really excited for the wedding, Ginger and Steve are some butt-kickin' folks. Thanks for showing me a great time, and for letting me play with your very fluffy doggie. Almost makes me want to get one.... almost :) Enjoy...

If you don't like reading posts where I gush endlessly about my clients, this would be a good one for you to skip. On Saturday, Amy and I were shooting at the Old Mill in Media, PA. I shot there just a few weeks ago and I love that place. The weather here in the northeast was looking sketchy, so most of the events took place inside. Didn't stop us much though...

Allison and Carl are some genuinely great people to be around. Allison is so artistically creative (as you'll see by the many incredible details that she HAND-MADE) and Carl is so intellectually creative (I know that sounds weird, but if you know him you understand). I had a blast with them earlier this year at their engagement session, so I had some pretty high expectations for the wedding. Everything went great, despite to crappy weather. They had some great ideas for photos and were so kind in letting me have some fun with them. I enjoy these a lot, hope you do too!...


The next 4 are Amy's photos...


I love this one...

This is their first look, seeing each other before the ceremony. A very nice moment.

Some of the incredible details that Allison created. These types of things make such a difference...












Goodnight...

Friday, I was out in Montgomery County for Morgan and Jason's wedding at the Manor House at Commonwealth. I really loved working with these guys at their engagement session, cause they were up for whatever, which was great on Friday, because it was COLD outside. Big thanks to the bridal party, especially the girls, who braved the elements for the sake of portraits. I appreciate it!

I remember my initial meeting with these two because I left thinking about how nice they were and how excited I was to shoot for them. People like them make my job super easy some days. Also, big thanks to Stephanie Osborne for coming out from Wyoming to shoot with me! Enjoy...






Jason had to run back home before the wedding (some minor detail about needing the wedding rings), so we didn't see him till about 5 mins before. He was as cool/happy as ever. I'm so glad for engagement sessions for this reason... actually knowing people more than 5 minutes before the ceremony...







The girls were freezing at this point. Thanks for sticking it out!...














Funny moment with Jason and his mom during their dance...




Elevation...

Tuesday I was up at Bucks County Community College for Meghan and Dave's engagement session. I had shot there once before. They've got a pretty good garden area up there which we hit, as well as the dance studio where Meghan and Dave have been practicing for their wedding, which is upcoming on New Year's Day. Excited for you guys... enjoy the last few months of single life!...















I know I've seen this done elsewhere before, but I still think it's funny...
