Sneak Peek : Impromptu Tablescape

So here is a sneak peek of the impromptu tablescape my friend Cass and I did after we got rained out of our scheduled photo shoot one Saturday.


Can't wait to share it with you because for less than $50 we put together a lovely tablescape that would be perfect for a small intimate bridal shower.

 

Sneak Peek - Makaiah's Dedication Brunch

Who says living breathing dolls don't exist?

I had the pleasure of working with Makaiah once again capturing the Sunday brunch in celebration of her dedication.

More to come.

New Hope Wedding | Amanda and Fran - Part I

Earlier this month I had the pleasure of second shooting with the talented Isabel March at the wedding of  Amanda and Fran at Centre Bridge Inn in New Hope.

How would I sum up Amanda and Fran's wedding?

Young Vivacious Couple + Beautiful Quaint  Country Inn +  Lively Australians = One Lovely Fun Wedding

I decided to break their wedding up into two parts just because I love getting ready shots so much. (I think I may have said that before. I can look at getting ready shots all day long - that is how much I love them).

Enjoy!

 

Sneak Peek and So much to share

I have been a busy little bee in the month of July and I have a lot to share with you. I want to make sure I get it all organized and posted before I take off for San Fransico at the end of the month for my birthday celebration. I still have to post the last part of Nicola's wedding plus I need to share with you my sessions from July: a fabulous wedding I got to second shoot, an impromptu tablescape session with my friend Cassandra, and Makaiah's dedication brunch. I want to get it all out there before I come back with vacation shots (I am so geeked about taking pics in Cali) and the upcoming wedding I have on the 24th. Plus I want to continue along with my Simple Summer Pleasures series (my personal project I assigned myself).

So for now I leave you with a sneak peek of the fabulous wedding of Amanda and Fran that I had the pleasure of second shooting for the incredible Isabel March.

Fragrant blooms from my butterfly bushes - the smell is divine.

Nicola & Hugh Wedding - Ceremony | Philadelphia Wedding Photographer | Collingdale PA Wedding

As promised here is part two of Nicola and Hugh's wedding.

I have never seen a couple laugh so much during their wedding ceremony. Hugh ever the jokester has a way of making laughter infectious. I was chuckling myself a couple of times behind the camera.

Enjoy ....

 

Celebrating My Mother

Last week I had a birthday celebration for my mother and a group of her closest friends at XIX in the Bellevue Hyatt. I had originally intended to do a large celebration next year for mommy's 60th, however, given the health scares this year and stress of my grandmother's illness I thought it would be nice to do something special this year. The older I get the more I realize how important it is to value the time we have now with loved ones because time is so precious and short. Mommy and I have not alway been close especially during my teenage years but I can truly say that I know that she has always given me unconditional love, been unselfish and self sacrificing for me,  and I know no matter what she will always be there. So it was sooooo very special for me to host a luncheon in her honor.  And each one of my mom's friends are such lovely and warm woman. I've known most of these ladies my whole life and they have seen me grow from infancy to who I am now. I can only hope that I can mature as gracefully as they have. Don't they all look fab!
