rachel + scott :: just married!
wedding day, take II.

i *loved* seeing rachel + scott again a few weeks ago for a quick “just married” session in dupont circle! their wedding day was absolutely fabulous {see it here!} but we didn’t get a chance to hit the streets of the city like they had hoped, so we scheduled a fun shoot around their favorite neighborhood! rachel was thrilled to wear her gorgeous wedding dress again and scott looked as sharp as ever in his cashmere suit – love this couple!
enjoy!

sunset on manasota key.
love like a sunset.

tommy + kathy :: married! manasota key, florida.
i just returned from a whirlwind weekend in south florida for my dad’s wedding!
the tiny, private ceremony took place on the white sands of manasota key just before sunset. including the bride + groom there were only six of us in attendance, making this one of the smallest weddings i’ve witnessed, and the first time i’ve ever signed a marriage certificate! it was a wonderfully emotional + intimate celebration and i loved being such an integral part of the day. it gives me great joy to see someone i love so much find happiness + love – and as always i feel privileged to be able to capture and share that love with my camera.
dad + kathy – i’m thrilled that you found each other and wish you an absolutely blissful life together!

donna + brian: married!
a {jersey} shore thing.

donna + brian are married! WOO!
this spectacular shore wedding was an all-out, 3-day celebration of love + elation with the most fun, energetic and amazing families i have ever met! i had the absolute best time documenting all of the excitement and emotion that surrounded this couple’s much anticipated nuptials!
i knew from the start that this wedding was going to be awesome – simply put, donna + brian are fantastic people who are totally in love with life and each other. we had an absolute blast at their marathon engagement session last year in philly, and i’ve been looking forward to their big day ever since!
the festivities kicked off with a spirited rehearsal, dinner & tiki bar deck party on friday, and continued throughout the day saturday in preparation for the late afternoon wedding. everything was held at the sea shell resort on long beach island in beach haven, NJ. the ceremony was short + sweet, on their private beach, followed by super fun portraits by the ocean, a lavish cocktail hour, and a beautiful golden sunset.
not surprisingly, the reception was completely off the chain. the slippery band rocked it out, and donna took to the stage – a true rockstar bride! – and delighted her guests by singing! in fact her entire family has talent – her brother + sister-in-law both sang, her dad rocked out some lyrics and everyone else sang along from the crowd. there was no shortage of serious action on the dance floor all night long, a wildly entertaining mix of wedding reception/rock concert/dance off – LOVED it!
i really can’t say enough wonderful things about donna + brian, and am simply thrilled that the images totally ooze the incredible amount of happiness that filled the weekend! i am so grateful to have been a part of this celebration – what an honor to feel so elated, so enthused, and so blissfully happy for two great people who make a perfect couple!
congrats to donna + brian, who although currently honeymooning in hawaii, are *totally* reading this via their blackberries at this very moment! reason #437 why i LOVE them *SO* much!!
ENJOY!
