Jennifer and Mark's wedding was my last of 2011 and they have been so patient waiting for this blog post.  The truth is, there were so many photos I wanted to include that I was a little intimidated about actually gathering all of my favorites together and taking the time to prepare and post them all.   The good news is, I've finally gotten around to doing it.

I'm excited to share that Tiffany and Ryan's beautifully hand-crafted wedding at Friedman Farms in Dallas, Pennsylvania is being featured in the Spring/Summer 2012 issue of the Knot Magazine.  Pick one up for some great wedding inspiration!

I love weddings at the Phoenixville Foundry.  It is such a unique and grand space and from what I've overheard there, guests are always impressed by it too.  Marisa and Mike decided to have their wedding just before Thanksgiving and it is always exciting shooting a wedding around that time of year.  You can feel everyone getting excited for the holidays and the wedding is another reason for celebration.  The weather was unseasonably mild that day and it lent to a beautiful portrait session in downtown Phoenixville.  Marisa's dad was sweet enough to contact the local movie theater and put the couple's name up on the marquee!  It was one of the best personal touches I've ever seen.  

Alison and Jesse should have a long and happy marriage because the weather on their day was dismal!  We had great plans of shooting around the city and in Grand Central Station and unfortunately, the weather dismissed our plans very quickly.  While I love outdoor photos and try to get at least a few no matter what, I love how warm and welcoming a wedding feels on a rainy day.  The lights from inside seem even brighter and it just feels so good to go from a storm outside to a bright and happy party inside. 

The Lotos Club offered what felt like a regal backdrop for the day.  There were rich colors and ornamental details in every room that truly felt fit for a wedding.  Thanks to Alison and Jesse for going with the flow!  It was a beautiful day.

Thankfully, Becca and Dan decided to have their wedding on a Sunday.  The day before, we had an epic blizzard and tree--falling episode in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.  Roads were nearly impossible to navigate.  Even on Sunday, my trip to Holly Hedge required three detours.  Needless to say, it was a relief to arrive for the beautiful wedding that took place.  It seemed to me that all of the guests made it too.  While the ceremony was moved inside, the barn provided such an intimate and wonderful setting that I doubt anyone even noticed the weather outside.  Becca and Dan had a wonderful attitude about the slight changes in plans and they truly had a blast at the party!  It was a wonderful, snowy, fall wedding.
