Ocean City Yacht Club Weddings - Ocean City, NJ- Kristi and Chris

Hi, all. I really got totally into the gorgeousness of Kristi's dress, the romance of the way Chris moved with Kristi, and looked at her, plus the wind, waves and the lusciousness of the sunset on the bay. This ceremony took place on Friday right off the boardwalk on the beach in Ocean City, at a spot where they have all the beach weddings in Ocean City, NJ. The reception was at the Ocean City Yacht Club, which is on the bay. That's how we were able to get sunset in the images on the East Coast! The flowers were by Somers Point Florist & Event Planning. I took the photos. -- Faith

Bellevue Weddings, Philadelphia; Basilica of Sts. Peter and Paul, Weddings, Philadelphia

The beautiful wedding of Veronica and John took place this past Saturday and I'm so honored to have been involved. Veronica is the fourth of a series of friends whose weddings I have photographed. It was wonderful to see the baby of one of those previously married friends at the wedding! It is truly touching how people let me into such an intimate day in their lives and then the circle of life continues with a new family. I wish this, and much happiness, for Veronica and John, too.
The band was the incomparable CTO Manhattan, the talented florist was Rhoads Garden, and the wedding planner was the impeccably organized, high-energy, effervescent Veronica (I know, two Veronicas at one wedding is confusing) from Perfect Weddings. -- Faith

Radnor Valley Country Club, Weddings; Villanova Chapel-Weddings; Traditional Vietnamese Wedding

Hey, everyone -- I'm really excited about the wedding of Mai-Linh and Anthony that I photographed over Labor Day weekend. It was both a Western wedding ceremony at the truly beautiful Villanova Chapel at Villanova University, and a colorful, vibrant traditional Vietnamese wedding ceremony at the bride's parents' home. The reception was at the stately Radnor Valley Country Club, also in Villanova, PA. Flowers are by Belvedere Flowers in Havertown, PA.
I've never seen a bride and groom change so many times! Mai-Linh and Anthony wore traditional dress twice and Western dress twice throughout the day, requiring four complete changes of wardrobe. This would have frazzled many a bride but Mai-Linh and Anthony did it without fuss, and quickly! -- I didn't even notice they were gone. - Faith

Morris House Hotel, Philadelphia - Wedding of Tonya & Andrew

This Saturday Faith photographed at the truly charming Morris House Hotel; wedding of Tonya & Andrew. The hotel is a beautiful old Federal style building near Washington Square. Tonya & Andrew had a gorgeous ceremony, decorated by Fleur in Manayunk, for a small group of friends and family. Tonya & Andrew both played basketball in college, and both wore the same number, 42. DJ'ing was done by the best DJ in the area, No Macarena Custom Music Service. Tonya & Andrew really seem destined to be. - Faith

Hotel Dupont, Weddings; Villanova Chapel, Weddings - Kerrin and Kevin

Hi! It's been awhile since I blogged, but I just had to share my excitement about the images from Kerrin & Kevin's wedding this Saturday, August 2nd. The Villanova Chapel wedding was followed by a Hotel Dupont wedding reception. The Chapel is gorgeous, and the hotel exquisite -- one of the best old-world, elegant ballrooms in the U.S. Flowers were by Patti's Petals in Bethlehem, and the band was the Heartbeats.

Morris Arboreteum, Philadelphia Weddings

Here's the wedding of Kim and Steve that I, Faith, photographed at the Morris Arboreteum last Sunday. Beautiful, isn't it? I'm a "nature girl" at heart, so any green space like this is great for me to photograph in. I just wish I could take off my shoes and run through all that grass!
The ceremony and reception were held on the grounds of the Morris Arboreteum in Philadelphia, and the custom-designed music DJ service was provided by, in my opinion, the best DJs in the Philadelphia area, No Macarena Custom Music Service. -- Faith
