scandia + mike \\ classic and elegant wedding at the ballroom at the ben \\ philadelphia, pa

Thu, 22 Sep 2016 18:16:07 GMT

Scandia + Mike's Baltimore City romance is one for the books; they met over Match.com, and quickly became inseparable, spending weekends in the Federal Hill part of Baltimore perfecting their romance until they became engaged! Scandia and Mike have a classic style, and chose the newly renovated Ballroom at the Ben for their reception for its architectural elegance. Florals were ivory and peach, and Scandia carried a vintage photo of her grandfather in her bouquet. Scroll down for more vendor credits from this beautiful wedding! Much love to these two <3

Liz + Zak enjoyed an incredible backyard wedding at the groom's family home, nestled along the riverbank in Downingtown. A simple white tent with woodsy details and a free-standing ceremony under an archway filled with wildflowers was perfect for this laid back duo! Every part of this wedding was touched by friends and family, down to the florals, which were designed by a family friend. Check out their fun filled day - the ultimate backyard wedding! Thanks to Dan Doran for second shooting this one with me.

Fri, 15 Jul 2016 20:31:31 GMT

Ashlin + Matt's June wedding at Baywood Greens in Long Neck was filled with so many sweet and fun moments; they opted not to do a first look, so Matt saw Ashlin for the first time as she walked down the aisle towards the water. Their outdoor ceremony was officiated by Ashlin's brother in law, and featured several ADORABLE flower girls and ring bearers - what's not to love? Ashlin wore a blush pink gown from Allure, and carried a simple bouquet of white and green florals. Ashlin and Matt have a serious love for the beach, so little details - like glass bottles wrapped in rope used for table numbers - added a personal touch. I especially loved the girls' monogramed clutches, given to them by Ashlin as a thank you. Thanks to Dan Doran and Heather Mazur for shooting alongside me!

Jamie + David's classically romantic wedding is giving me all of the <3 <3 <3. I've come to really love this incredible couple and consider them friends, to which I am thankful for! Jamie wanted their day to resemble a classic fairytale, complete with touches of blush, gold and glitter. David signaled James Bond in his dapper tuxedo - and touched the heart of every guest at this wedding when he broke down seeing Jamie walk down the aisle - even after their first look (take note, guys).

Stone Harbor holds a special place for Nancy and Greg, and after spending countless summers down the shore, they knew that the Yacht Club was the perfect venue for them and their guests. We enjoyed a near perfect day, except for a heavy storm that cleared just in time for some sunset photos! Thanks so much to the perfect combination of vendors for making this relaxed and classic beach wedding perfect!

When you combine a gorgeous couple, medium format film and beautiful styling, the results are bound to be wonderful. I am so grateful that Katrina and Billy brought Katrina's grandfather's vintage bike to our second stop at Terrain at Styers; Cottage Flowers designed a fragrant bouquet for Katrina, which sat perfectly in an old wooden bike basket. Don't even get me started on Katrina's vintage round-cut diamond, which is jaw dropping. K + B are getting married at Union Trust on memorial day of next year, and it's sure to be an incredible event. Much love to this special duo who have quickly won me over!

sydney + tim \\ new york spring wedding \\ montclair golf club

Thu, 14 Apr 2016 19:28:27 GMT

Sydney + Tim

If you've ever wondered what tulle skirts for your bridesmaids might look like, take inspiration from Sydney and Tim's classic and romantic New York City wedding. Due to inclement weather for the first part of the day, we spent a few hours in the Empire Suite of the Carlyle, which boasted the most incredible views of Central Park. The threat of rain cleared up just as we made our way outside the hotel for portraits before a ceremony at St. James Episcopal Church on Madison Ave. The most amazing sunset was the perfect backdrop for evening portraits on the green on Montclair Golf Club! Even though their wedding was formal, Syd and Tim wanted dinner and dancing to be intimate and free-flowing, surprising guests with one special formality - a choreographed swing dance that was incredible! I loved spending the day with this happy party, and cherish the friendship that I formed with Sydney and Tim. Much love to this beautiful couple, who reside in New York City and spent their honeymoon in Grand Cayman <3

just married: julianne + andrew: late fall stone harbor wedding

Wed, 23 Dec 2015 21:30:14 GMT

When Julianne and Andrew were introduced by Jules' best friend nearly 3 years ago, they discovered that they were from the same home town, had many mutual friends but had somehow never crossed paths. After Andrew proposed, they decided that the coastal chic Reeds Hotel in Stone Harbor would be the perfect venue for their late Fall wedding. So many romantic details, including paper goods by Shine Wedding Invitations and florals by Pink Dahlia Vintage, created an elegant semi-formal backdrop for this gorgeous couple. Enjoy!

baltimore engagement : scandia + mike

Mon, 26 Oct 2015 22:02:03 GMT

Loving these gorgeous photos of Scandia and Mike in Baltimore to celebrate their engagement! The perfect little white dress, a blush-and-gold confetti balloon and a stunning waterfront backdrop made for a memorable session downtown. Scandia and Mike changed into more casual clothing for a sweet picnic on top of Federal Hill with some gorgeous afternoon light. I am thrilled to be photographing their wedding next year in Philly! <3 Check them out for some serious engagement inspiration.

just married: theresa + brendan: colorful and love filled country club wedding

Sat, 17 Oct 2015 20:33:52 GMT

Every wedding is filled with emotion, tears and laughter, but Theresa and Brendan's day will always hold a special place in my heart. These two are an incredible testimony to the power and strength of family and friends, and as their photographer, it was amazing to be a part of it all. Theresa and her ladies got ready at a family home, and shared champagne outdoors prior to leaving for the ceremony. Theresa and Brendan love spending time down the shore in warm weather, so bright turquoise and cheery yellow were chosen to set the tone for the evening. An emotional first look was followed by formal portraits and a ceremony overlooking the green. Brendan teared up when he watched Theresa walk down the aisle by her two brothers, and the two were pronounced husband and wife as the sun set behind them. I met Theresa through her cousins - you might recognize a few of them in the dancing photos :). Thanking Theresa and Brendan for welcoming me into their big day. Love you both, and many years of happiness! Special thanks to Alex Schon for second shooting and helping me dodge golf balls.

just married : angeline + jason : casual elegance at the whitebrier

Fri, 16 Oct 2015 19:00:00 GMT

When Angeline told me that her wedding to Jason would be a laid back beach affair at the Whitebrier, a popular restaurant in Avalon, I was thrilled to see it all come together. For this couple who met down the shore (The Princeton), decor would be a dose of modern meets rustic, with a beachy twist of course. Starfish, shell and driftwood accents were met with the romance of late Summer florals and greenery. Angeline's Nicole Miller gown was simple but perfect; her sisters wore mint gowns with a similiar neckline. My favorite moments were Angeline and her sisters sharing a snuggly moment with the family dogs, and bridal portraits on the beach of bride and groom. Even though Angeline and Jason's wedding day was stormy and wet, they both embraced the weather wholeheartedly for the sake of photos, and I love them for that. The newlyweds didn't want guests to feel tied down to the normal formalities of a traditional sit-down dinner, so they opted for a free range buffet, allowing guests to mingle throughout the evening. They shared a first dance surrounded by almost 200 people in the Whitebrier's Mermaid Bar and enjoyed an after party at where else, The Princeton. Congrats to the beautiful Angeline and Jason!! <3

just married: meg + jon : modern nautical wedding in avalon

Fri, 16 Oct 2015 17:01:21 GMT

A few years ago, I did a family session in Avalon and immediately fell in love with the Diamond girls, Katie and Meg. Fast forward a few summers later (and one engagement!), I headed to the Windrift in Avalon to capture Meg's wedding day. Fittingly enough, it was extremely windy - which made for dramatic beach shots and I am grateful to Meg and Jon for allowing me to drag them onto the beach, where they had to block the whipping sand from their eyes (seriously, I thank you guys a million times!). Thankfully the Windrift has a tented space on their roof, where we captured some gorgeous portraits prior to the ceremony. Meg is very laid back, and opted for a neutral palate for bridal party and florals that already complimented the venue's dining room. She carried a cheery bouquet of pink and coral roses that popped with her bright lip color and looked drop.dead.gorgeous. Right before walking down the aisle, Meg and Katie sprayed their bouquets with perfume from their beloved, late Grandmother. With no first look, Jon waited for Meg under the intimate white tent, surrounded by a crowd of family and friends. What I love most about Meg is her incredible smile and enthusiasm, and Jon is one of the most kind grooms I've worked with. I sincerely cherished our time together on their wedding day. Congrats to this incredible couple, who I am happy to call friends of mine!

just married: jacqueline + brian: nautical romance in stone harbor

Tue, 15 Sep 2015 02:07:36 GMT

I honestly cannot.stop.staring at Jacqueline and Brian's wedding photos. Everything about this day was up my alley - a nude and lace gown, ombre peach bouquet, milk and donut bar and a sweet pup in a tuxedo were highlights - but the love didn't stop there. Jacqueline and Brian are high school sweethearts, and have a serious love for the outdoors. The opted for a bay view ceremony at The Reeds at Shelter Haven, a boutique hotel in Stone Harbor, followed by sunset photos at the beach. Jacqueline and Brian were honestly so laid back and sweet and I am honored that they entrusted me to capture their love. Everything was pure perfection and then had an incredible dance party, led by Monte Carlo (EBE). J + B are jetting to Grenada for their honeymoon. Wishing them much love and happiness in their new life together! <3

just married: ashley + joe : preppy and colorful cricket club wedding

Mon, 14 Sep 2015 18:43:01 GMT

Ashley + Joe channelled a little bit of prep mixed with pops of bright color (think bright green bridesmaids shoes!) for their summer wedding at Philadelphia Cricket Club. A sweet first look under the wooden gazebo where Joe proposed was followed by portraits at the Art Museum. I practically drooled over Ashley's lace gown all day - and the dainty bow on the back was pure bridal perfection. Ashley wanted a garden feel for her reception decor, and Robertson's florals gave her a great mix of rustic and preppy. White lanterns, slabs of wood for centerpieces and florals in shades of pink looked incredible in the Cricket Club's white ballroom. Wreaths of greenery and vintage books added romance to the decor. Brendenbeck's in Chestnut Hill created Ashley and Joe's cake - a three tiered classic white confection with floral touches. One of the best parts of Ashley and Joe's night was an honorary tribute - sung Margaritaville style by Ashley's father and new husband- to the bride. Loved working with Ash and Joe, who made my job easy with their laid back vibe and serious love for each other! <3

just married: jen + ryan : classic lavender country club wedding

Wed, 09 Sep 2015 17:51:53 GMT

Jen + Ryan's gorgeous August wedding at Huntington Valley Country Club featured lavender florals, an adorable first look session, and some incredible golden hour shots of the bride and groom. Jen and Ryan were married in a Catholic ceremony at Nazareth Academy, where Jen attended school. As a thoughtful gift to her groom, Jen surprised Ryan with a vintage car experience (he's enormously well versed in everything car related). What a fun twist on the exchange of gifts! And don't forget to look at the adorable hanky Jen gave her father with a quote from their first dance song <3

Check out their classic wedding for some pretty bridal inspiration! Special thanks to Ashlee Mintz for second shooting.

just married: hao + baobao : sweet center city bridal session

Fri, 28 Aug 2015 20:19:43 GMT

What a dream it was to capture Hao and Baobao just one day after they married in a Boston courthouse; they are both from the city of Tianjin but met while studying at the University of Penn (my alma matter!). While falling in love with each other, they also fell in love with the city of Philadelphia, so naturally they wanted to remember all of their favorite spots before making the transatlantic move to Cambridge in the U.K. ! When I first saw BaoBao in her BHLDN gown, I let out a bit of a squeal...because how could you not. She was absolutely breathtaking. For a fun twist on a bridal session, we did their engagement photos in Old City during the Golden Hour following their bridal shoot. Wishing Hao and BaoBao nothing but LOVE and HAPPINESS in their travels as newlyweds!

just married : jane + paul : romantic country club wedding

Thu, 27 Aug 2015 19:59:30 GMT

Jane and Paul's incredible long-distance love story began in London, and spans nearly a decade. They met while Jane was studying abroad, and had an undeniable connection. It was over Skype, frequent trans-atlantic flights, and time spent together in Australia that Paul and Jane knew they couldn't be away from each other much longer. A Summer wedding was planned at Wilmington Country Club, where Jane's parents were married. Friends and family from overseas came to celebrate the incredible love of this inspiring couple, who undoubtedly belong together. Jane and I hit it off right away, and it was such a pleasure to spend the day with her and her bridesmaids. Of course it doesn't hurt that she is stunning in the most classic way; everything from the Pronovias gown to the sunlit portraits of the happy couple on the golf course was pure perfection. Romantic details included antique black and white portraits of family, porcelain tea cups, and a vintage globe that served as a book for their guests, who came from around the world to celebrate. J

Just Married : Hadley + Mike : Congress Hall

Mon, 17 Aug 2015 23:01:37 GMT

Hadley + Mike's Congress Hall affair was a touch of nautical mixed with bright and punchy Summer colors - think watermelon dresses from J.Crew, local pink dahlia, classic blue and white striped tablecloths with fluffy florals and even centerpieces filled with oyster shells. A presbyterian ceremony in downtown Cape May was followed by a session on the same pier that Mike proposed on; Hadley and Mike posed on a tandem bike that read 'Meet Me at Congress Hall' and after escaping a brief rainstorm, were blessed with a gorgeous rainbow. Lovesick played an incredible set and created the perfect party in Congress Hall's retro ballroom. Hadley and Mike are honeymooning in Bora Bora - amazing!

Simone + John's Summer wedding at Stockton Seaview was filled with love, laughter, and lots of sweet details, including a killer pair of glittery Kate Spade pumps, mis-matching Plum Pretty Sugar wraps for her maids and an ice cream bar during the reception! Simone wore a classic ivory gown accented by heirloom jewels; John wore a classic Vineyard Vines tie to compliment the girls' sea-green dresses. Simone has a love for the beach, and the couple's nuptials were held at the same Catholic church that her parents were married at. After heading to Seaview, guests enjoyed a cocktail hour on the lawn and a live band. What I love most about Simone and John is their laid-back and fun attitudes - such a pleasure to work with this beautiful couple!

Simone and John honeymooned in Italy (they've promised lots of good travel tips for my upcoming trip!) <3

Wishing them and their families many years of happiness! Love you both!

engaged : bridget + dan : beach plum farm

Mon, 27 Jul 2015 19:19:13 GMT

Bridget and Dan met in Cape May, and their love affair with each other (and the beach) began quickly thereafter. For their engagement session, Bridget agreed that Beach Plum Farm would be the perfect place for photos; their organic produce is exclusively supplied to top-notch eateries in downtown Cape May, including The Ebbitt Room, Blue Pig Tavern and Rusty Nail, places that Dan and Bridget visit regularly while down the shore. Wearing a floral crown designed by Petal and Paper, Bridget channeled her inner bohemian. After a sweet picnic among the sunflower fields and a chicken-feeding session, Bridget and Dan headed to Cape May Point to enjoy the spectacular sunset that Cape May is so famous for. A hand-calligraphied driftwood piece was designed by Charlie Whiskey and read : "On the way to Cape May, I fell in love with you." This adorable duo lives in downtown Philadelphia and are planning for a Fall 2016 wedding in - where else - Cape May!

just married : liz + donny : rainy romance at hvcc

Tue, 07 Jul 2015 16:22:46 GMT

If the saying that ‘rain brings goodluck to a marriage’ has any truth to it, then Liz and Donny will be blessed with lifelong happiness. It rained on their wedding day, and yes, I am talking torrential downpour/never ending/sideways rain. Not only were Liz and Donny totally calm and at peace with what Mother Nature threw at them on their big day, but they embraced it. Stunning in her Nicole Miller gown and Badgley Mischka heels, Liz ventured outside for some of what I think are the most romantic photos…I absolutely love a couple who is willing to do anything to get great photos on their wedding day! Besides the stormy weather, these ‘newellyweds’ (their adorable insta hashtag) enjoyed a packed dance floor and confetti popping fun at the end of the night. Cheers to Liz and Donny! <3

We met in Lewes, DE, where Ashlin and Matt spend their summer together, and now I’m hooked on Cape Henlopen state beach. And this couple. Enjoy!
