Columbia Station Wedding Photographer: Susan & Matt

Ever since I met up with Susan and Matt for their engagement session in the spring, I couldn't WAIT for their wedding. They're two of the sweetest people in the world, so I knew their wedding would be a good one:)  And with two fellow Penn Staters, how can you go wrong?  There were so many things I loved about their day - their First Look (so emotional!), Susan's AMAZING dress from Kleinfelds in NYC (Randy from Say Yes to the Dress picked her veil out!), and their reception venue on the train tracks.  Columbia Station is such a unique spot for a wedding, I absolutely loved 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!

Matt wrote Susan a sweet note:

Which came along with some diamond earrings:

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

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

Welkinweir Wedding Photographer: Theresa & Dave

I absolutely adored Theresa and Dave's "love bird" theme at their wedding this weekend - SUCH a cute theme, I loved all of the little details:)  There was a threat of rain all day for their wedding, but we were lucky enough to have some gorgeous sunlight during their portraits....thank goodness we did, that way we were able to take FULL advantage of Welkinweir's grounds....it's gorgeous!  The old, rustic feel of the venue was perfection:)

Theresa & Dave, thank you so much for inviting me to be a part of your wedding day - I loved every minute of it:)  Theresa, you're one of the most laid back brides I've ever met, thanks for being so amazing all day!  Here are some of my favorites from the day, and for even more images check out their slideshow:)

Mallard Island Yacht Club Wedding Photographer: Denise & Mike

Ever since Denise & Mike's engagement session in Cape May last year, I've been excited for their wedding.  They're such a sweet couple, and I've loved getting to spend time hanging out with them over these past few months.  Denise is SUCH a sweet girl, and Mike is just an all around awesome guy....they have such an amazing relationship and are so comfortable with one another....they made my job so easy!

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!

Denise and Mike, and the venue, are so beautifully photographed that everyone I have shown the pictures to instantly thinks I am showing them an ad with professional models! Then, when I play the slideshow with the music people actually start crying with joy as if they were there, even if they don’t know Denise and Mike. So heartfelt and beautifully moving.

John Demchuk - September 14, 2011 - 4:55 pm
