Adriana & Charles: Wedding

Quick note... we've decided to do our posts a little bit differently from now on...or at least until we think of a new way to do things that we like even better. :-) Instead of doing slideshows, we're going to put all of our photos right here on the blog for you to enjoy.

If you've been checking out our blog for a bit you might recognize Charles and Adriana (and Adriana's sweet son David) from their engagement session post a while back. They are an incredibly wonderful couple who it's been a pleasure to work with. Their wedding was a celebration of the love and happiness that they've found in their new family and it was wonderful to be able to be a part of that.

Here are some of our favorites from the day...






Isn't Adriana a beautiful bride?






Lauri caught this great moment when David arrived at the church with his mom and could barely contain his excitement as he ran into the church to see Charles!








A special moment when Adriana's parents who came in all the way from Columbia gave her away to Charles.






Adriana shares a moment with her sister during the ceremony. :-)


How beautiful is this church?!


The Kiss.


And another on the way out of the church.




Time for photos was very limited after the ceremony, but we did grab a few. And I LOVE this one that Lauri took.


Before being announced at the reception Charles and Adriana had a few moments alone.


The kids were totally making good use of that dance floor.


Although we were limited in time for formals, we took Adriana and Charles away from their reception for a few moments to grab a few more.










And some more reception...






We had a great time with Charles, Adriana, David and their entire family. We can't thank you enough for choosing us be there to capture your wedding day. :-) It was a pleasure.

Michele & Gary: Wedding

Michele & Gary had an absolutely gorgeous wedding at Cescaphe ballroom in Philadelphia. We love that they decided to see each other before the ceremony so we had lots of time to hit all the major hot spots in Philly for wedding photos. So here are some of our favorite from their day, with a link to a slideshow of some more at the end! :-)



I think these shoes are so hot.







Katie put some textures on this photo she took and I think it looks crazy awesome!









If you look closely you can see Michele and the bridal party in the reflection :-)



Gary got so choked up as he watched Michele walk down the aisle, it was so sweet.



Cescaphe ballroom was absolutely beautiful and they had a TON of food. Everyone definitely had an awesome time celebrating Michele & Gary. They even had salsa dancers come to perform for everyone, and they were fantastic!





And as promised, here is a slideshow of some more :-)

All the cool kids wear lobster hats

A couple of weekends ago, Mikey and I made the 6 hour trek (we were smart and left during rush hour) up to Stonington, CT for his friend Ryan's wedding. It's so much fun going to weddings as just a guest and getting to party it up, but I just HAD to take a couple of shots during the day.









Here's a super cute shot of Seth & Lisa:



Johnny & Krystle also looking super cute:



The wedding was seriously the best time ever. We got to catch up with a ton of people we hadn't seen in what seems like forever, and we all just danced the night away decked out in lobster hats. How cool are we?



Dee looks so adorable here:

And of course, the cutest boy in the world:



YAY!
