I photographed Jackie and Addison’s wedding in the beautiful Bryn Mawn Presbyterian Church and on the ground of The Merion Golf Club. During the walk through to scout for locations, Addison was quite well versed on the various landscapes of the golf course and the tall grasses of the fescue immediately caught my eye as a potential spot for some interesting formals. Jackie and Addison were troopers are we drove around in the golf cart and hiked through the terrain for some great formals. They even humored me and laid down in the grass reminiscent of an Andrew Wyeth painting! The party that followed was full of fun and some emotional toasts. What a wonderful wedding!
Black and white images can be a powerful addition to you wedding album or group of wedding photos. Not all photographs look good when converted, so make thoughtful choices on what you want shown in B&W. Tracey and Cedric had a fabulous wedding at The Manor House at Commonwealth and I can’t wait to begin to put an album together with all the wonderful photos we have.
Katherine and Matt were married on a Thursday at Curtis Hall Arboretum in Cheltenham. They had a self uniting ceremony filled with many remarks from friends and family. They made use of the beautiful grounds by recessing from the ceremony straight into a private walk into the woods as the guests went to the cocktail hour. This is a good way to skip the receiving line and let your guests know you will see them in the reception. I always like this approach as it allows me to concentrate on the formals and get the bride and groom to the reception as quickly as possible. Because Katherine and Matt are free spirits, they were game for using the many areas on the grounds at Curtis. Thanks to Heather Fowler for being my second photographer and shooting some wonderful images.
At the brides request, I went into the kitchen to take some photos of the folks from Joshua’s, who catered the wedding. The food was fabulous and the evening was topped off with a display of cupcakes in every flavor from Flying Monkey.
