Taryn & Arif met at a singles awareness part on Valentine's Day a few years back, and wed this past Friday at Hotel duPont.....everything about their day was simply gorgeous:) Some of my favorites from their day are below, but check out their SLIDESHOW for even more images from their day!

Had to start the post off with these shoes - aren't they amazing? I wish I had shoes like that for my wedding day:) Taryn is a girl who loves some bling:)

Love, love love:)

While I was with the girls, Cait was with Arif & the guys....

Time for their First Look! My favorite time of the day:)

Downtown Wilmington has some great spots for photos:

One of my favorites - I see this one is a large canvas:)

Gorgeous Taryn:)

Taryn & Arif arranged for their guests to be able to take a horse & carriage ride around the city before the ceremony - they hopped in for the first ride:)

One of my all time favorite ring shots!

Absolutely loved this ceremony space:

Absolutely loved all of the wintery details - and that cake? One of the best I've ever seen!

Also one of my favorite cake shots I've ever taken, love the Christmas wreath in the background:)

Congrats Taryn & Arif!!

The weather for their wedding day was....well...a little less than cooperative.  We got a freak snow storm in October in the North East, which rarely happens that early. At least there wasn't much accumulation on the roads around the city (although I had a solid 5 inches of snow at my house, only about 15 minutes outside the city....can't figure that one out), and we made it work:) Chrissie and Mike were so amazing and didn't let the weather bother them in the slightest, they were such a joy to work with:)  And since we had shot their engagement session the day before the wedding, hitting all of the important outside shots around Philly that Chrissie wanted, she ok with doing their photos wherever we needed to the day of the wedding. I love being forced to think outside the box on days like theirs, because I always end up loving the photos....I've never shot an entire bride & groom session indoors before, but I'm in LOVE with their shots:)

Here are some of my favorites from the day:) I can't get over the snow accumulation outside the window:

Chrissie's dress was perfection:

Gorgeous.

Mike's son helped him get dressed:)

Time for the first look, my favorite part of the day!

Mike's reaction was priceless - I believe he said "now you have it documented that I DO have emotions!"

As we drove to the Kimmel Center for their photos, the rain tapered off just enough to get their shot in the middle of Broad Street - love!

All of these were taken inside the Kimmel Center, I love the result:

I believe my fab 2nd shooter Caitlin was locked in a staircase while I was taking these....sorry Cait! I found you eventually:)

The ceiling made of glass makes it an ideal shooting location:

One of Cait's, I loved her angles - a bunch more in this post are hers:)

This is my favorite from the day:)

We headed back for the ceremony - Chrissie & Mike's two bullmastiffs were walked down the aisle - how CUTE are they??

Married!

I just love these two:)

Chrissie & Mike, thank you so much for including me in your day - it was SO great getting to know you guys, I had a blast!  Hope you're enjoying your FAB honeymoon:)

I LOVED Katie's jewelry, I wish I had a bracelet like that for my wedding:)

Jon bought Katie such a sweet gift, with an even sweeter card to go along with it:)

The belt that Katie added tot he dress was perfection - I love the attention to detail:)

Husband and wife!!

Next we headed to Penn Oaks to take some more photos - see what I mean about the gorgeous light??

Love the signs - she got them on Etsy:)

I just love the way he makes her laugh:)

Gorgeous!

Love these two!

These images feel very "fall" to me - love it!

There was a threat of rain all day, but the skies held it in during our portrait time, I was so relieved! That way we could take advantage of all the awesome spots around Columbia Station.  Here are some of my favorites! And to see even more from their day, check out their SLIDESHOW!

One of my favorite dresses EVER:

Matt wrote Susan a sweet note:

Which came along with some diamond earrings:

While I was with the girls, Cait was with Matt getting shots of the guys getting ready:

First Look! My favorite part of the day:)

I think Matt loved her dress:)

I love when the wind naturally picks up a veil like that:

My favorite!

I loooove grand exits - they're always so fun! You get the best expressions during the exit too - while I was standing above:

Cait was standing below:

We had to take advantage of the train tracks at Columbia Station:

The bridal party even has a private cocktail hour in a caboose outside:

Denise & Mike were married at the Mallard Island Yacht Club in New Jersey, and let me just say...WOW.  This venue was AH-mazing.  As soon as I drove up, I knew it was going to be a good day:)  The grounds are absolutely phenomenal, the ceremony spot jetting over the water was fabulous, and their bridal suite took my breath away.  I've NEVER been in a room like it before (checkout some of the bridal suite pictures in the slideshow!).  So all in all, it was an amazing day, with a fabulous couple:)

Here are some of my favorites! It was hard to narrow down for this post.  And for more images from their day, check out their SLIDESHOW!

Isn't she gorgeous??

Loved all the bling:)

Their first look under the arches....always my FAVORITE part of the day! So many emotions:)

Stunning....simply stunning:)

I love that my job involves walking on beaches:)

These red chairs were perfect!

Headed out onto the water for a few....

The ceremony location, on a pier with water on either side. SO AMAZING.

Married!

The fabulous florals by Savannah's Garden:

The candles were still lit out on the pier after dark, so we ended the night getting a few shots out there. These are some of my favorite from the day:)

Thanks guys, for involving me in your wedding - I loved every second of it!!  I hope you're enjoying your honeymoon in Disney!!

Don't forget to check out more images (including their RIDICULOUSLY amazing bridal suite) in their SLIDESHOW!

Karen and her girls got ready for the wedding at the Golden Plough Inn at Peddler's Village:

Gorgeous:)

Husband & wife!!

Before heading to the mansion, we stopped in downtown Doylestown for some photos:

Then we met Olive back at the mansion!

See what I mean? This place is gorgeous!

I love this huge tree, and the white lanterns they hung all throughout the grounds:

Signature drink - mojitos!

Thanks for including me in your wedding, I had a fabulous time! Hope you're enjoying the honeymoon, despite the hurricane threats!!

I've been looking forward to Ashley & Jesse's wedding for a long time - ever since I "met" (over email) Ashley's twin sister Sam (we were both featured in Premier Bride), I was so excited for the wedding. A maid of honor that's a wedding photographer? I KNEW this would be an amazing wedding:)  Jesse & Ashley held their wedding at the Blue Ridge Country Club in Harrisburg - LOVED the inside of this venue with all of the twinkling Christmas lights.  These two were so cute together, so excited to be married....Ashley was nothing but smiles all day long:)

It wasn't the best day weather wise, it pretty much rained all day long - but the weather gods answered my prayers and the rain held off for a few minutes so we could get some amazing portraits on the country club grounds.  Ashley was simply stunning with her whole "Greek goddess" look:)

Here are some of my favorites, and make sure to check out their SLIDESHOW for more from their day!

I was lovin' these shoes:

Gorgeous!

I always love the shot of the groom seeing his bride for the first time:

Married!

I loooove bubble exits....I kinda wish I could have done one for my own wedding!

I'm envisioning a large canvas of the photo below on the left - LOVED this tree line!

See what I mean? Ashley was all smiles:)

This is one good lookin' couple:)

Love these two!

We moved on to the porch when the rain picked up again:

Ah! Love these lights! It made their dancing shots look amaaaaazing:)

Congrats guys!! Hope you're enjoying your fab honeymoon in Key West:)

Jeanette and Tony met in high school, and got engaged in Key West. Their proposal story is one of my all time favorites - Tony proposed to Jeanette on a boat during their trip to Key West - right after he popped the question he surprised her by having their best friends and family come out of the inside of the boat!  I love that he arranged for everyone closest to them to come down to Key West and celebrate their proposal - these two are the sweetest!

Here are some of my favorite images from their day, and you can always check out even more in their SLIDESHOW!

Love her gorgeous dress:

I always love this moment when dads see their daughter for the first time on the wedding day - it was a very emotional moment:

One of my all time favorite "groom seeing the bride for the first time" shots - he was full of emotion, the best man looks on in excitement, and mom lends a calming hand:

Married!

They had a fun grand exit from their church where all of the guests were given wedding bells to ring as they ran by:

I always love this moment too - immediately after the ceremony, checking out the new rings for the first time:

Even though it was HOT HOT HOT, we ventured outside for a while for portraits - LOVE how these turned out. You can't even tell it was 100+ degrees:)

Favorite #1 from the day:

Favorite #2!  I love that this whole series was "unscripted", they were just being their cute selves under this tree:

Love!

Jeanette asked for some sunset shots, and I'm glad she did - love these shots!

Perfection!!

Thanks Jeanette & Tony, I was so glad to be a part of your wedding day!  Hope you're enjoying the honeymoon:)

Loved all of the fab red details:)

Can we talk about how PERFECT this dress was for Jill? Just wait until you see some shots of it blowing in the wind below:)

Stunning:)

Since their ceremony & reception was at the same location, Jill & Kevin opted for a First Look - this gave us tons of time for amazing photos, AND they didn't miss a single minute of their cocktail hour:)

One of my favorites, I love the softness in this photo:

Just hanging out on the water. I love my job.

Gahhh I loved Jill's dress! Just look how it flows perfectly in the breeze! I'm in love:)

One of Jill's requests, an "Abbey Road" shot:)

This was where the ceremony was held - is this not awesome?? I LOVED it!

Cait grabbed this shot from above, just married!!

Loved the red/blue details (Jill got tons of stuff on Etsy:)

Ended the night with a shot of the happy couple overlooking the Ben Franklin bridge - perfection!!

Congrats Jill & Kevin! We had so much fun with you guys, enjoy your honeymoon at the end of the month!!
