A Thanksgiving Table

On the side...

Last summer I had the opportunity to photograph a beautiful table setting for Beautiful Blooms Events at Barley Sheaf Farm in New Hope, PA.  A historic B&B, what a perfect location this would be for a summer nights wedding! The decor from this shoot always reminded me a bit of Thanksgiving so I thought I would share it with you now. It’s warm and antiquey and I think a bit turkey would look just perfect in the center. The beautiful table was adorned with real antiques such as the flatware and plates and mixed with some “new vintage” .  Two Paper Dolls did all the very vintage invitations and cards.  Rounding off the team,  makeup artist, Beke Beau made out beautiful (and handsome) models shine.  I hope my Thanksgiving table looks as yummy as this! Happy Thanksgiving all!L

Rittenhouse Hotel Wedding of Allyson + Steven – 10.08.11

Weddings

Allyson and Steven returned to the Rittenhouse Hotel and shared a little kiss at The Boathouse Row Bar located in the hotel for a little alone time prior to their reception.  Their after-party was going to be held in this historic bar. Such fun. Nancy Saam Flowers did such a lovely job with the decor in the Grand ballroom at the Rittenhouse. The evening was a combination of romance and fun enhanced by the music of EBE dance band London.

Philadelphia Wedding Portraits of Allyson + Steven – 10.08.11

Weddings

What a perfect October day in Philadelphia! Not too warm, not too cold and not too windy. Allyson and Steven allotted for time to go around the city in a trolly for pictures at some of their favorite  locations.  We started at The Second Bank of the United States in the Independence Mall area and ended up at beautiful Rittenhouse Square which was the location of their wedding reception at The Rittenhouse Hotel later that evening.  The loves the delicate bouquets designed my Nancy Saam Flowers. Right next door to the hotel is the Church of the Holy Trinity with it’s stunning red doors. I’ve had 3 couples in a row use the doors as a backdrop this fall.

Saint Patricks Wedding of Allyson +Steven 10.08.11

I really like this image of Allyson having her makeup done while her beautiful Junko Yoshioka gown hung on the door of her suite of the Rittenhouse Hotel. Allyson and Steven were married at  Saint Patricks Church with it’s beautiful gold dome and only a short walk from the Rittenhouse hotel where their wedding reception was held.

Union League Wedding of Catherine + John – 10.01.11

Weddings

This has been a most busy wedding season. So busy, in fact, I have fallen very behind in my wedding posts. To catch up I would try a new photo gallery that is part of my new blog. Catherine and John took their time after their ceremony to do wedding portraits at some of their favorite location around center city before arriving at The Union League for their very romantic wedding reception!
