Alana & Aaron – Peche Wedding – Philadelphia Photographers

We started of 2012 with the wedding celebration of Alana and Aaron in Philadelphia. Every last detail was thought out an planned perfectly by Alana and it showed throughout the day. They had the ceremony and reception at Peche in Philadelphia. The building was simple, yet elegant and unique. High ceilings and few walls allowed this large celebration to go off without a hitch. Here are some highlights from Alana and Aaron’s wedding. Best of luck to the both of you!


Jacquie & Conny – Moorestown Wedding Photographers

We met Jacquie and Conny at the house Jacquie grew up in, in Moorestown, NJ.  They brought a long a Swedish flag and an American flag for some photo props.  Conny is Swedish and Jacquie is American.  For January (for any month) the weather was awesome.  We lucked out with a warm day and virtually no wind.  They brought along their puppy Harley.  Harley reminded me a little of a dog we used to have and it was fun capturing the moments between the 3 of them.  We are looking forward to capturing Jacquie and Conny’s wedding in just a few a months.

Here is a recap.

 

2012 Begins! Philadelphia Wedding Photographer

It was cold, but it was January!  We had so much fun capturing Alana and Aaron’s Wedding day at Peche in Philadelphia.

Here is a sneak peek.

 

Looking back at 2011…. Central Pa Wedding Photographer

2011 is over and we have moved on to 2012.  Looking back at 2011, I have to say it went by super fast.  We opened our studio in Hazleton early in the year and got to work with painting it and making it look like a studio.  Shortly after we headed out to WPPI in Las Vegas, picked up some inspiration and biz ideas.  We met and captured quite a few memorable weddings and were pretty much away every weekend from April to early November.  We even captured an amazing destination wedding in Jamaica.  The start of Carden’s Film section of the studio began.

One a more personal note.  Having settled into the home we bought last year, we continued working on the house.  Completed putting in a whole new kitchen, putting up a wall, and completing a couple walls we took down.   We settled into our new area and worked at new venues we will be seeing again and again over the years.   My niece Mackenzie was born just days before my birth date and my own little girl turned 5, which I consider a milestone.  We look forward to 2012 with much hope and anticipation of what is to come.  I am sure it will be just as exciting, if not more so than 2011.

Here is a look back at the weddings we captured last year.  It was an honor to document every single wedding and we can’t thank our clients enough for trusting us to capture their weddings.  From the details, to the family portraits, to the fun shots, it is always and always will be an adventure.  To see more from a certain wedding, just click the image.

Tasha – Pre Wedding Preparation – Eatontown NJ

I captured Latasha’s “getting ready” images on New Years Eve 2011. Her hair and makeup to all the details of her wedding day, until she was dressed and ready to head off to see her future hubby to be. It was an afternoon of laughs and fun. It was great being there and capturing it call. I LOVED her shoes. Not sure how she could walk around in them, but she did it just fine. Wishing you all the best in 2012 and beyond! Here is a recap.

Location – Sheraton – Eatontown NJ
Makeup and Hair Styling – Go Glam Beauty
Coordination – D Perfect Wedding Design

Megan & Jon – Williamsport Wedding Photographer

Megan and Jon’s wedding took place near Williamsport this past December. We enjoyed the day with a smile. The bridal party was a blast and Megan and Jon’s relaxed personalities really made the day just fun. While editing the images it is safe to say I burst out laughing atleast 5 times.
We wish you all the best in you future together and thank you for allowing us to capture such a fun day.

Operation Love Reunited – Sam & Family

Sam’s husband Scott is currently deployed.  So she brought in her 3 beautiful children for some pictures to show daddy.  We loved capturing some images of this family so they can share them with Scott.  Wishing Scott a safe return soon.

As a part of Operation love Reunited, we love offering this service to military families.

Jessica & Ryan – Pittsburgh Wedding Photographer

Things may have started out a bit frantic for us on our way into Pittsburgh, but after editing these images, I am super glad everything turned out. I first met a frantic Jess at her parents home in pittsburgh. From her dress, to her hair and very cool dress hanger, I knew the utmost detail had been put into this wedding. Tim headed to Ryan’s house where they proceeded with some groomsmen shots before heading over the church.
The ceremony was beautiful and I have to say, churches with natural light are super AWESOME.
Jess and Ryan know eachother so well and a are so in love. It shows in their images.
Here is a glimpse into their wedding day in Pittsburgh in November.

Best of luck with everything and your future, Jess and Ryan!!!
