I’ve been photographing weddings for over 12 years now and this was the very first time I photographed a wedding on my birthday. I’ve always wanted to do a “birthday wedding” and I finally got one. Catherine prepared fr her day at her family home in Gladwyne, PA. She wore one of my all time favorite feminine Monique Lhuillier gowns with the keyhole back! She was just stunning in it. Makeup artist Béke Beau and hairstylist Amanda D’Andrea were on hand to have all the women looking gorgeous. We did a few portraits in her backyard before departing on a trolly to her ceremony at Saint John Vianney Church in Gladwyne. Check out this beautiful bouquets and boutineers by the fabulous Nancy Saam. Check back for most charming reception.
Japan Tour Photos
I ran into a woman who went on our tour of Japan last year with our tour company. She said it was the best tour ever. She shared a few of her I phone photos with me and I thought I would share them with you.
Lavender + Bees = Honey
I took a little trip back to Carousel Farm near New Hope, Pa to see all the beautiful Lavender in full bloom. I wanted to share this amazing farm with my grandson, Zac and my daughter-in-law, Jill. On Wednesdays they offer a wonderful tour of the farm where you can see the bees busy at work, artists in the fields painting, llamas and goats grazing and how lavender water is made. It was such a relaxing day to spend a summer afternoon. We went home with some lavender plants, lavender honey and very delicious lemon-lavender cookies!
Engagement Portraits of Breen and Katie
What fun I had with Breen and Katie at Tyler Arboretum in Media, Pennsylvania. It was a beautiful location, so many adorable nooks and crannies. What I enjoyed most of all was Breen and Katie’s fun loving style. They had me in stitches. They even brought their own mustaches. I can’t wait for the fun we have in October at their Philadelphia wedding at Stotesbury Mansion.
