Rebekah and Craig – 10.12.08

October 21, 2008 – 1:53 pm

Alright before you all say “It’s about time” let me just say….it’s about time!! I’m sorry there haven’t been any new blog posts. Lindsey and I have been diligently processing images but we’ve also had a TON of portrait sessions over the last two weeks to take care of as well. We’re finally coming up for air but only to take care of some long overdue blogging. So without further ado…

After Andy and I capture Susan and AJ’s wedding in Hazelton on the 11th, we traveled through the BEAUTIFUL Poconos to Allentown to meet up with Lindsey to document the wedding of Rebekah and Craig. Now a little story about these two. We did not do an engagement session (which we normally recommend so we can get to know each other a little better) but I had several long meetings with these two and I felt like we were old friends. Plus I was very excited to shoot at places that I had never been to before, especially Allentown Symphony Hall. I could go on and on about their wedding and the details but for the interest of time, I will only mention one thing. I have NEVER heard a better toast from a MOH than I did at this wedding. It was an amazing, touching moment that will stay with me for a very long time. (Those of you there know what I mean.)

So, below are a few favs. Click HERE for the show.

This one is my absolute fav!

Susan and AJ – 10.11.08

October 15, 2008 – 9:55 am

Saturday was SUCH a beautiful fall day. Andy and I were excited to travel to the Hazleton/Drums area for the wedding of Susan and AJ. We had 3 different locations to work with throughout the day: the church where the ceremony was held, a little historic church with a one-room schoolhouse behind it for portraits, and the Sand Springs Golf Club for the reception. Of course, my favorite was the little schoolhouse which was even more symbolic because Susan and AJ are both teachers. We had a great time with everyone on Saturday and it made us even more jazzed for our Allentown wedding on Sunday. Stay tuned for that!

Here are my favs from the day. Click HERE for the slideshow.

Heather and Cory – 10.04.08

October 8, 2008 – 9:42 am

On Saturday, Andy and I made the quick trip down to Lititz for the wedding of Heather and Cory. We seriously LOVE this couple. We just related to them so well. It was like photographing our oldest friends. We met up with them at the General Sutter Inn where both Heather and Cory were getting ready. When it was time for the ceremony, Heather’s parents walked her down the street to Lititz Springs Park. The whole day was just an intimate affair with everyone ending back up at the General Sutter for dinner.

And we are oh so jealous that Heather and Cory are enjoying Vermont for their honeymoon!!! We have not been back since our own honeymoon and have been wanting to get there.

My favs are below and CLICK HERE FOR THEIR SLIDESHOW.

My favorite of the day. Heather’s dad seeing her in her dress for the first time.

Heather looked gorgeous.

OK – So this one might be my favorite from the day. I can’t decide.

Kade – 9 months

October 4, 2008 – 12:07 am

One day last week (again, I’ve lost track of time ;) , I met Kade, Emily and their Mom at Fort Hunter for Kade’s 9 month session. Kade had just started on some more teeth and he was NOT happy at the beginning of our session. Fortunately for us, his mood improved by the end of the session. I do have to say that I’ve never met a baby who loves grass more than Kade. And Miss Emily was just too sweet trying to help out that I had to get a few images of her as well.

Below are my favorites. Enjoy until next month when Kade and I meet again.

See…I told you.

But thank goodness the face from above didn’t last long.

Love this one. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it.

And, last but not least, little Miss Emily.

Leslie and Matt – 09.28.08

October 2, 2008 – 9:24 pm

With hopes of a drier day than Saturday, Andy, Maureen and I headed to the Peter Allen House for the wedding of Leslie and Matt. Although I had just recently met Leslie, I knew Matt from a previous life centered around baseball. ;) And because of that, we were excited to capture their day for them, rain or no rain. There would be no rainout on Leslie and Matt’s wedding day. So the outdoor ceremony was moved under the tent and, much thanks to coordinator Lorri Rogers, this beautiful little altar appeared in a corner of the tent. Leslie was of course taking everything in stride. So with rain pouring down, Leslie and Matt married under the tent. And then, a miracle occurred. ;) The rain stopped!! Just in time for portrait time!! WOO HOO!! So we moved quickly through family portraits and then spent some time walking the grounds with these two. It actually ended up being a nice evening, nice enough that they opened up the tent to let the brisk air in. Everyone seemed to have a wonderful time enjoying the final hours of their weekend partying with Leslie and Matt.

My favs are below and of course, CLICK HERE FOR THE SLIDESHOW.

LOVE THIS IMAGE. I think it really captures the personality of both of them.

We had a little challenge for the day with the rings. Andy won!
