Right Now

I'm in love with this for several reasons but it's mainly because Terence reminds me of me on my own wedding day.

Giddy.

There's no other way to describe it. I know the feeling, man.

Congrats to Terence & Patricia. More good things to come.

Right Now

I am all about pretty pictures but sometimes it's the moment that carries an image.

I'm finishing up Shino & Ashok's wedding in Maryland two weeks ago & love this.

Jessica + John 06.25.10

Jessica and John married beneath two trees, outside, surrounded by their family and dogs.

Yep. Their dogs. Jessica is studying to be a vet and their dogs are such an integral part of their lives that the wedding wasn't going to happen without them. And they were great guests: When Jessica and John were pronounced man & wife the audience clapped and the dogs howled. It was the greatest thing.

I had always wanted to work a wedding at Fonthill Museum in Doylestown for reasons you can see in the image above. It's a beautiful space.

Thanks Jessica and John, it was a real pleasure.

And thanks, Cesar Laure, for your help second shooting.

Angela + Eric 06.19.10

The cab picture above was my closer. I never start the blog with a closer but it's one of my favorite images. It's cute and classic and quintessential Philly.

Earlier in the day, Angela and Eric married in St. Mary's Church in the Society Hill neighborhood of Philadelphia.

It's my favorite part of Philadelphia, beautiful and historic. We walked through Washington Square on our way to their reception at The Curtis Center.

And it was Eric's birthday. What a great gift.

Props to Daniel Moyer for helping me out on this one.

I got an email last night from Kari asking for a sneak peek at her wedding.

She & Ryan were interested in some non-traditional images.

I think we succeeded.

Back to School

This is probably the craziest time of year for me: Weddings are in full swing & students return to Lehigh University, one of my biggest commercial clients.

Add to that craziness the opening of Lehigh's newest building, STEPS, an $85 million research facility on campus. It's gorgeous.

Joe Craig and I spent a good portion of Sunday night making this image & I'm pretty thrilled with it.
