Baby Sadie Session 2

Sadie is just getting cuter and cuter! She is such a happy baby, has grown so much since I last saw her! She is super expressive and has such a great personality. It was fun to see Mike and Morgan get their silly on to entertain her for photos.

Its like she's already telling us a story, maybe some playground gossip.

Hehe, gotta love that tongue!

Hand in mouth, you know that's where your supposed put it right?
Little cheeky monkey

Back to the gossip: "Really? Oh no you didn't!"
Aren't they just adorable?

Classic Philly Love.

We stopped to smell the flowers for a minute.

Bathing beauty

Being this cute is hard work, wears a girl out.

Playing with Mom, by the way Morgan love those lashes!

Great hanging with you guys again. So glad we cooled off in the fountain a bit. Sadie just keeps getting cuter, can't wait for the next one!

Rebecca & Mike, Married 7-19-09

Rebecca and Mikes wedding was such a blast. I have been a bit adopted by this family. I am very close friends with Mike's sister Melissa, you would recognize her wedding photos and photos of her daughter Ellena. Mike and Rebecca were officially married this past winter before Mike was deployed back to Iraq. They waited until this summer to have the official party. It couldn't have been a more perfect day, you will see and that sky is not fake! They both have such unique looks to them. Mike really wanted to have a different wedding and being a member of the Scottish Masons the kilts were a perfect solution. Rebecca had a bit of the ethereal goddess going on, she is so gorgeous! I was very excited to be part of the day and the party. A great time was had by all, this is one close knit family and I am honored to be conisdered part of it.

The wedding celebration was held at the Flag Hill Winery in Lee New Hampshire. Such a gorgeous location.

American Gothic with a Scottish flare.


Lots of jokes were made amongst these guys about wearing kilts, but it all came down to the fact that they would do anything for Mikey, even if it meant wearing a skirt. I think they were all quite handsome!

I was like a kid in a candy store with this scenery!
Check out this hot couple.



Might be one of my all time favorites.
Seriously, could it get any better than this?
Oy!
Love the coming down the isle shots.
My little protege! Ellena may just become a photographer when she grows up. She was quite the picture taker, mimicking me throughout the night. Too adorable.
Rebecca's neice, so adorable.
Oh yeah, you were waiting to see some twirling weren't you?
I just love this.
During the first dance, which was litterally their first dance together.
Oh here we go! Get your tissues, man these moments kill me. Going through this whole series I was in tears again. Rebecca and her mom had a mother daughter dance, so tender.
I call this one Jessica Rabbit.
You knew something like this was coming didn't you!? I love everything about this, it also helps that Mike has a flawless rear end. hehe!

You guys are awesome, really. I had such a great time thank you for all your hospitality!

Check out the slideshow for many more images including the group of boys lighting up the night sky and Rebecca and Mike jumping into the pool at the end of the evening. I had such a hard time choosing which images to feature on their own and the slideshow is probably my longest and largest to date....

Kristina & Dave Married 7-11-2009

Kristina and Dave had a beautiful wedding at Drexelbrook! Miss Jenn Childress was there second shooting for me, thank you Jenn! We had a great time with a very lively group. I started with Kristina. She kept her dress a secret from everyone until right before she put it on. Most of the time the girls and mom know what the dress looks like, but not this time. I loved her dress. It was a fantastic spinning dress.

Love this image right before she got dressed.

Jenn was with the guys before hand and got this great portrait of Dave. Love it.

Kristina has strikingly gorgeous eyes.

We had a few moments to relax, breathe and take some portraits before the ceremony. I love the calmness in this one.

Beautiful

Might be my favorite.

I love capturing the guys making their entrance.

The look from the groom when he see's his bride for the fist time, always priceless.


Kristina gave her new daughters a special gift during the ceremony, it was very sweet.

This little guy wanted to check out the gazebo during the ceremony. You can see a little mischievousness in his face, I love it.

The bubble machine at the end was the perfect touch!
The newlyweds.

Love this portrait Jenn got.

The first dance was a lot of fun. That dress was amazing.

We stepped outside for a few night portraits. I love this one.

OOh buttery! Love this.

You knew they were going to smash! Everyone knew and man did they smash! Look for the whole sequence in the slideshow. It has to be the best cake smash I have ever seen.
Such a fun time! Thank you so much for having us out. enjoy your slideshow!

Hilary & Paul engagement shoot

Hilary and Paul were so adorable. Paul was nervous, which added to some of the adorableness, for the photos. He did great and even better after a little hair of the dog if you will. In all seriousness we had a fun time on this shoot and it was great to get to know each other better. These two love birds will be getting married this fall and I can't wait to see them again.

This was one of the very first shots, love it.

Playing with some off camera light

See, adorable.




Philadelphia is full of awesome fountains.




One of my favorites of the day.

Love this fun little series.
You guys are awesome, so great spending time with you. I can't wait to do it all again come November!

Ekash, One Year!

Little Ekash can seriously steal your heart! This boy is so adorable. He has changed so much since I saw him last fall, its crazy! He is walking now and has such a personality.

He is still very curious about the camera.

He has the cutest little wiggle when he walks. You can totally see it here.


He likes to share his toys

At home on the playground

Now this is a super special moment. Ekash is walking all over the place but he still crawls up steps, well that was until now! This is his very first time walking up steps unassisted, with mom in the back just in case. He did it all on his own.

My favorite!

Happy Father and Son.

Having some fun on the swing.

Love this little moment

Seriously one adorable family
Be sure to check out the slideshow for more and for the sequence of Ekash's first walk up the steps by himself. It was difficult choosing which images to feature by themselves.

Baby Titus Session 4, One Year!

I can't believe its been a year, if its gone by fast for me you can only imagine how Maygan and Dan feel! Little Titus is so adorable and he is probably walking all over the place now, he still needed a little helping hand when we had our session.

Daddy with the finger support.

Their church was generous to let us have it to ourselves for photos.


A little peekaboo.

Titus loves to swing and he goes super high!!

Some comfort from mommy.

I love this one.

Still loves to smell the flowers.



mmmm, ice cream on a hot day. The perfect reward after a long shoot.
So good seeing you guys, I can't believe that was our 4th and last session. Crazy how time flies!
