Kathryn & Daniel in Atlanta

Our second stop last week was in the great state of Georgia. It was our first time shooting there and Tony's first time in Atlanta. Perhaps as important is that it was our first time at FLIP Burger, although certainly not our last. Daniel and Kathryn skyped with us a while back and we cannot wait to shoot their wedding next year in Atlanta. For their engagement shoot, we wandered around their favorite brewery and then a few spots around town. A huge thanks to them for their willingness to get soaked for our last few shots. I think it was worth it! Here's a few of our favorites... as always, kind comments are encouraged to tell Daniel and Kathryn how well we think they dress...

    Welcome to Atlanta, Hoffers!

  2. Thanks! It’s a great city!

  3. Chris Moncus

    Great images Tony. Atlanta is a great city and FLIP Burger is an amazing restaurant.

  4. Eileen

    You are absolutely right about their outfits… snappy dressers! I also love that they chose a brewery for their engagement shots. It’s a clever twist for such a special occasion and I find it sooo refreshing when couples choose places that are more personal to their relationships.

  5. Julie

    First of all, they are a pretty awesome looking couple. Great job! Secondly, is there a reason why my iPad is displaying random photos that don’t belong on each blog post? This post, for example, had several family portraits and a few wedding portraits from other clients you’ve shot.

  6. Thanks Julie! Not sure… we’ll look into it :)

  7. Jessica

    Totally, 100% in love with these photos. I love that they did the Sweetwater brewery and you got some amazing shots of an impeccably dressed couple. Love them, and I adore the photography. Flip burger was the icing on the cake, I’m sure.

Jill & Craig at the bowling alley

We get around. And we like it that way. We've shot engagement photos in parks, museums, monuments, broken down factories, condemned houses, kitchens, baseball stadiums and about a million other places. But we've never shot in a bowling alley... and there's never been a bowling alley as cool as Lucky Strike in Philly.

Jill and Craig are getting married next year and have quite a history with the sport of bowling. Well, at the very least they really like doing it. It was actually a pretty awesome place to shoot, kind of like Jill and Craig... awesome.

(Also, you should be proud of me for talking about bowling and making no references to Kingpin or the Big Lebowski. I would never munson myself like that.)

Michelle & Kevin in Northeast Philly

We met Michelle in Kevin in a place where we've been a million times, but never actually stopped to look around: Northeast Philly. New places are always the best! There's nothing like putting a fresh pair of eyes on something. These guys are getting married next May. Some people are just great together in front of a camera... Kevin and Michelle are. We like them because they love food as much as we do (and because they're lawyers so we're contractually obligated to). Thanks guys, we had a great time!

Amelia & Chris in Philadelphia

Last night we met Amelia and Chris in Philadelphia. It was a cloudy day. We were shooting around town for a while and I was setting up a shot. Amy looked up and said 'look at that'. All of the sudden there was a bright red sunset and we were running for the top of the parking garage. We made it up in time (you'll see those below). A sunset like that is pretty hard to top... until you see a garage door with a batman logo on it.

Megan & Ryan in Millersville

This week we had the pleasure of heading to Lancaster to shoot for Megan and Ryan at Millersville. We love these guys and can't wait to shoot for them more this fall. We saw them at Stacy and Mike's wedding a few months ago when Megan tore up the entire dance floor. Should make for some good times. This week, we even got to trespass for a while... I'm just not going to say where...

  1. I stumbled across this site while researching new websites. Wow! First the website and blog… OMG it’s cool! I could go on and on about it but I’ve already done that with about 50 phone calls to my friends to have them check it out! Next the content… You have a really cool and unique style. Love the images and how you really seem to draw out the unique qualities of the couple. Really, Really Great work! Thanks for the inspiration!

  2. Gorgeous shots! They sure had fun too!

  3. THese are beautiful! I love this shoot! :)

  4. I love these. The motion on the swing…whoa. I love how in your pictures they are so crisp that you can see specks of dust in the air.

A Workshop-y Engagement Session with Ashley & Drew

A few times a year, I (Tony) get the opportunity to teach some small 1-on-1 sessions for other photographers. On Friday Jeremy came in and spent the day here in good ole Downingtown. We put a call out for some volunteers and Ashley & Drew stepped up for us. Here's some of the photos from the shooting portion of our mini-workshop on Friday... Enjoy!

Jess and Geoff Part 2 in West Chester

If you're a regular blog-stalker, you saw these guys last week. We shot part one of their engagement session in Manayunk last week and met up again this week for part 2 in West Chester. Jess wanted Christmas lights and Christmas light she got! Enjoy!...

  7. Kim South

    Saw these last night, but too late to comment. Wonderful photos..so personal I almost felt like I was intruding on some private moments. Guess that is part of why I love your work.
    Call me a blog stalker if you wish, but it is what it is.

  8. Natalie

    so beautiful!!! LOVE how their head silhouette makes a ‘heart’ shape with the bokeh! SOO cool!

Alisha and Rob, frozen at Penn’s Landing

328 years ago Wiliam Penn landing in Philadelphia. I guarantee he wasn't this cold. We showed up an found Alisha and Rob in 25 degree weather with what felt like 80mph winds.... in other words, it was COLD! Alisha was wearing sweatpants and changing in and out for each photo. We couldn't believe how awesome these guys were to shoot for. They were so game for whatever we wanted to do, never said a word about how cold they were and had a ton of fun!

Oh, and I (Tony) got to go ice skating while shooting :)... Enjoy!
