Kate & Ben, Radnor Hunt

Kate and Ben had a wonderful day! Before I get too far let me mention some of the key players.

Venue: Radnor Hunt
Flowers: Harmony Hill Gardens
Pies: Linvilla
Shoes: Manolo Blahnik
Second Shooter: David Schrott, David shot a lot with me this year, as usual great stuff David thank you for all you do!


Lets get on to some images.
starting with some bling.

One of the groomsmen warming up for the ceremony.

The flowers were amazing. They were from Harmony Hill Gardens, which is an organic grower in Buck county. Ben's step mom was instrumental in the arrangements.

David got to spend a good bit of time with the boys, I love this little moment.

Kate was very excited about her shoes, who wouldn't be?

One of my favorites

Kate's something old was the veil her mom wore.

Love this.

Ben taking a few moments before the ceremony.

All the center pieces were different.

All of the details at the wedding were made, or arranged by family and friends. I like their interpretation of the program as the chalk board.

I love the look Ben is giving Kate here as they meet at the alter.

They did a self uniting ceremony. Kate's aunt Sara officiated; Kate and Ben wrote their own vows. September 26 is also sentimental because Ben's grandfather was married on the same day in 1941. Pretty cool.


I loved the brides maids dresses. Some gorgeous ladies.

The emotion on both sides of the family was very touching.

The kiss!

I love how Ben is getting the "adaboy" from his dad as they come down the isle!

We really hoped the horses would be out for some photos.

A still from one of my motion sequences, check out the slideshow below for more.

I think this guy may have secretly wanted to eat Kate's bouquet.

Radnor Hunt has this awesome swing. We had to take advantage.

Another favorite.

Instead of a wedding cake, they had pie.

The pie's were delicious. They all came from Linvilla Orchards except the one on top, Kate's mom made that one special.

I love love this little moment!

Pie is good!
What an awesome day. We had such a great time and the weather held for us, the minute we were done with portraits the sky opened up! Thank you for having me out, always a pleasure.

Kate & Ben Engagement Shoot

Kate and Ben's wedding is quickly approaching, the end of this month! We went out for their engagement shoot last month at Radnor Hunt, which is where the wedding will be. They brought along their pups, who enjoy long walks at the Hunt. It was a gorgeous evening and we got some great shots. We also headed down the road to Sugartown for the last part, I love that place. Lots of photos in this post, I couldn't choose so you get a lot of images.

Ben and Hannah leading the way.
(Ben the dog, which by the way was not named after Ben the groom.)


So cute!

One of my favorites.



Such a good looking group!


These are from Sugartown. Love this one. Ben has a great smile.



Kate is such a natural beauty.

Love this one of Ben, what a ham.

Kate strutting her stuff.

Another favorite.


At this point I could have taken them on a whole other shoot! We were all warmed up and relaxed, so it was time for a little fun. I loved seeing this side of them.
You guys were great! Can't wait to see ya again in a few weeks!
