I pulled together this little slideshow for a meeting with a client who is getting married next December. I wanted to show her that evening/night photographs are just as fabulous as a sunny day, as long as your photographer knows what they are doing! Low light photography is more challenging, as you really need to know how to use the light to your benefit, but you can achieve some fantastic results and end up with intimate, moody images!
John and Julia got married in November of 2006, so these are some oldies but goodies! Happy 2 Years you guys!
Kelli and Mike got married in May of 2007, so we did these fun engagement photos before Christmas at Peddler's Village. We shot some before the sun went down, went to the pub to warm up, and came back out for some fun holiday light photos!
Ok, so it's been a while since I've had the time to chillax with a good book at night. And I must admit, I am OBSESSED with the Twilight saga. I saw the author on Ellen one day and knew I wanted to read the series, and when I realized that the movie was coming out soon I decided it was now or never. I sat down with it one night when John was coming home late, and was done with it the next night! Now I'm almost done with the second one... Anyway, I really recommend it. It's page turning reading, a little romance, a little fantasy...handsome, smooth-talking vampires...haha Good stuff.
Kate and Jeff are getting married next September at the Valleybrook Golf Club in New Jersey. We met down in Ocean City for their engagement photos last weekend. I just love these images - the two of them are so calm and peaceful, totally at ease with each other and so sweet, it really shows in their photos. I look forward to their wedding day next fall! Thanks, guys!
I am so excited to now offer these gorgeous guest books to my clients! They are a great use of all of your fabulous engagement photos! Didn't do an engagement shoot? I'm happy to use photos that you provide, or leave the photo page blank and I'll add your wedding photos later! They come in multiple sizes, but I am a huge fan of the landscape book...each spread has a photo/photo collage mounted on the right side and a blank black or white page on the left for your guests to sign and leave personal messages. Black pages look AH-MAZING with the silver or gold ink. There are so many GREAT materials for covers, and you get a cameo on the front. They are just stunning! Interested? Need more details? Let me know soon and we can get them designed and ordered.

Nicole and Matt celebrated their wedding at The Meadows in Hellertown. It's a beautiful place, even on a rainy day! I was so thrilled when Nicole grabbed her red umbrella and headed out into the showers for some quick photos - before the showers turned to downpour! Matt and Nicole are a wonderful couple, full of laughter and total love for each other. Thanks, guys!
Ashling and Tom drove out my way for their engagement session last Sunday. We had a great time, they hardly needed any direction for me! They're are such a fun couple, and I am really looking forward to their wedding in December. Ashling LOVES deer, so of course we had to grab a couple of shots with them in the background!
I'm off to a wedding in Hellertown and then tomorrow an engagement session in Ocean City, but I leave you with a few of my favorites from their session!
John and I met up with the amazing Cindy Patrick last week to have our own engagement photo session! We went to Valley Green, back to the very place where John popped the question. It was so eye-opening to be on the other side of the camera! It took a while for us to get used to it, but Cindy was great and we ended up with a FABULOUS collection of photos. Here's one of our favorites. I had to just post it because we keep going back and finding other great ones! Wanna see more? Check out her blog!
One of my favorite things about being home during the day now is that Luke is happy because he gets all kinds of extra attention - walks, treats, cuddles under my sweatshirt. I've begun to notice all his funny little habits too, like this one. He will be happy as a clam sleeping in his bed or buried in the couch pillows. As soon as the boiler kicks on, his head pops up and he looks around, like "Could it be?!?" Then the blower starts, and this silly dog is on the floor with his stomach facing the vent, completely sprawled out and panting because he is so ridiculously hot. As soon as it shuts off, he drinks a bowl of water and goes back to his former spot. Silly dog.
I've been blessed to be working as a photographer going on 6 years now. Every year brings new challenges, exciting opportunities, and fabulous events! I work mainly in weddings and portraits but am up for anything. I am so honored every time a client asks me to be a part of their day!!!
