Roxanne & Fritz | Engagement at Swarthmore

Friday, May 28, 2010

Whew... This might be one of our busiest weeks ever! Lots of great stuff coming soon :)

This is our last engagement set for the week. On Tuesday we were in Swarthmore to shoot for Fritz and Roxanne. These guys are getting hitched next month! Just a few weeks away. We had some beautiful spots to hit and some really cool props. Fritz brought a handmade book that he used to propose. We even shot a few frames on his Holga... (hope to show them sometime down the road). Congrats you two... Enjoy!...

We took a ton with this chair :)

If you missed it on Facebook, here's all of us on the giant chair.

Hi Tony & Amy. I’ve been following your blog for a few weeks now ever since you did the great shoot of Nolan. We knew Greg and Carla from their church. I have to say you two do really great work and your photography is top notch. Great use of natural and off camera flashes as well as tilt-shift effects. I wanted to share on this post because I recently did a maternity shoot at Swarthmore college and I will also be shooting a wedding party there soon. Again, you guys did a wonderful job in this location. If you’re interested I have a few pictures from that shoot in this facebook gallery:

Tony and Amy, amazing shots of my friends Roxanne and Fritz. You guys look fantastic. It’s cool to see someone I know on here.
Fritz

Thanks, Tony! We’re thrilled with the shots and it was awesome meeting you and Amy! Can’t wait to see you gallery. Hope to send the Holga shots off for developing next week. I’ll let you know when I get them back.
Jenn Link

Amazing shots! I have a very tough act to follow on their wedding day!
Tim O

Is that photoshop trickery – or is that thing real?
Alex Singh

Love the tunnel shot! And that is quite a big chair.
Corne lategan

Really love this set guys!!!! Made me look at it a few times :-)
Nancy Chancellor

Way to make me cry first thing on a Saturday. My favorite is the double of eye-to-eye on the left, full blown laughter to the right. Kudos to the photographer.

Ginger + Steve | Engagement in Philadelphia

Friday, October 23, 2009

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...

My favorite...

Stephanie Osborne

The shot with the bench, rings and bokeh is amazing. I also like the new take on the LOVE sign as well as the post it save the date. Originality… thats what great photographers are made of.
Marcie

I love all the pictures! Thyme was really trying to steal the show, I see – clearly she can’t be the flower girl :)
Beautiful couple, beautiful photography – Love, Mom
Rene

I just showed this to a room full of women (sorry, Gin) who all screamed “engagement photo envy!” They first thought it was a picture from a magazine! They all look wonderful!
Becky

Love! That’s all :)

Angela + Donny | Philadelphia Engagement

Thursday, October 15, 2009

On Monday I was in Philadelphia for Angela + Donny's engagement session. I just met them a few weeks ago and we wasted no time. A February wedding and an October cancellation freed me up to work with them, and I'm so glad it did. Two genuinely great people. We hit some of the Philadelphia hot spots (Love Park, City Hall, 30th Street station) and got some great stuff. Big ups to Adrianna who came and carried all my stuff around and scarfed down some chili cheese fries with me. Enjoy!...

Nice job. You were all over the place, weren’t you?

I WANT THAT RING SHOT. FOR REAL. my fav, EVER. its so good i had to leave a comment. great set.
Lora Carr

Is your middle initial “T” – for talent?! Think this is your best session ever! Awesome!
Emil

So this set merits a FIERCE from me. You see so many engagment shoots in the city but you managed to make this one totally fresh and stand apart. My wedding may be over, but my stalking skills are still in full force and you continue to amaze me with the way you capture your clients’ unique personalities in each of your shoots with them. You are just ridiculous. I can’t even take it. lol.
Janine

Her ring is gorgeous..I’ve been a silent stalker but can’t keep quiet any longer!! Great work!
Angela

Tony – you are amazing. Donny and I are overjoyed by your shots and talent! Thanks so much and we can’t wait to see more!!!
L. Thompson

Your shots are the best…I’m an amateur still trying to figure out this crazy world of photography. Keep up the amazing work. You definitely ROCK!
Stuart Leask

What wonderful images! Love your work
Staci

AWESOME. Love them. :-)
nikki

Amazing..
wendy + warren

tee hee… just wonderin’ out of curiosity, and BAM – there you guys are! you guys look fantastic :) so happy for you!
Susan DeCelle

Tony, these are so beautiful! I am so glad that I was able to share my obsession with your photography with Angela. I couldn’t get your name out of my mouth fast enough when she mentioned that she wanted her photos to be special. I knew you would be able to capture Angela’s inner and outer beauty. Amazing!
jon campsick paek

these are bomb.

Tiffany + Chris | Engagement

Monday, October 12, 2009

On Thursday I headed back out to Forbidden Drive in Philadelphia for the second time in 3 days for Tiffany + Chris' engagement session. I really had a great time with them. They wanted some shots with their dog, which was a great change of pace, even if the dog just wanted to go swimming in the creek. I like this session quite a bit, hope you do too... Enjoy!

Tara & Sam | Engagement in Philadelphia

Friday, October 9, 2009

Philadelphia has this great spot near the city where it's completely wooded, lots of paths and trails. I never knew about it and now I've shot there twice in the same week. Wild... On Tuesday I was out with Tara & Sam. These guys were at a wedding I shot a few weeks ago and were actually set up by Ryan (the groom). I love having connections with people. Anyway, I really liked spending time with these guys. I get so lucky, almost all my clients are people I'd want to spend time with on my own. So good to have that... Thanks guys for the fun time. Enjoy!
