Stephanie & Brian’s Wedding at the Ace Conference Center

Ray Hennessy — Sat, 18 Dec 2010 22:14:10 +0000

We had such an amazing time with Stephanie and Brian at their Longwood Gardens engagement we knew the wedding would be great.

We showed up at the beautiful Ace Conference Center to meet up with Stephanie while she was getting ready. She was all smiles from the first moment we saw her and it was that way the rest of the day. Kim grabbed all the details and got some great shots of them while I hung out with Brian while he got ready. Hang around Brian for any amount of time and you will definitely be laughing so I felt right at home.

They decided to have a first look so we set up Brian in the spot and had Stephanie come up behind him, as soon as he turned and they saw each other for the first time they both lit up. Kim and I could really see the love between the both of them, they interacted so well together and required very little direction, they just did their thing and looked great doing it. That’s my kind of couple, making my job even easier, haha. After the first look, there were brave enough to go outside to get some shots even with the freezing cold and wind, we didn’t stay out there long but managed to grab a few great shots while we were out there. The grounds at the conference center were beautiful.

After the ceremony we partied all night long with them and their guests and had an amazing night. Everybody was dancing all night long and it was a perfect ending to the day. Thanks so much to Stephanie and Brian for having us be a part of your day and below are a few of our favorite shots from the day.

Brenda & Abner Wedding at the Moshulu

Brenda & Abner just picked up were they left off having fun at their engagement session. Kim and I showed up at their house to photograph Brenda getting ready and I must say, what a gorgeous house. Abner pretty much built the house himself as he owns Abner’s Construction in Vineland, NJ. There were many great places to take Brendas picture as she finished her makeup and put on her beautiful wedding dress. These two really know how to make you feel at home with them and we were so comfortable and relaxed as we photographed their wedding day. We left their house to go to the beautiful Immaculate Conception church in Bridgeton which was an amazing historic building. It had such an grand look inside and out. From there we made our way to the fabulous Moshulu in Philadelphia, PA. It’s an incredible restaurant that is located on a historic boat on the Delaware River with amazing views of the city skyline and waterfront. Brenda and Abner gave us plenty of time to take lots of photos both at the church and at the Moshulu. I can’t thank them enough for such a wonderful day, when couples give us the time to play around and really get creative on their wedding day it creates an opportunity to really get some amazing pictures. It’s really great to have couples that are into their photography and give us the time we need to create great memories for them.

Thanks again Brenda and Abner for an amazing day with a great couple. All the best to you both.

Just a quick B&W pic I shot a few weeks ago of Kim. We were just playing around see what we could do with window light only, I really like the casual look of this shot. I’m just sitting around processing some older stuff tonight and thought I’d post this real quick.

Later,
