from Brooke and Travis's e session!  Found this little gem while processing the images.  More to come!

I've been so excited to post the e session of Catherine and Matt.  They are, without a doubt, some of the sweetest people I've met.  Besides just having a ball together, we got to shoot in the peak of the spring bloom and scope out one of the oddest properties I've ever seen near me.  I have driven past this property all my life and wondered about it.  Apparently, the original owner had built a playground and pool for his children in the front yard back in the 20s.  With permission of the owner, Catherine, Matt, and I explored the setting and got some fun images there.  The current owners are working on restoring the property, I can't wait to see what they do with it!

I had the pleasure of attending a networking event a few weeks back at a brand spankin' new venue in Philadelphia - The Chestnut Club at Arcadia Theatre.  This venue is perfect for couples looking for a hip place for a cocktail reception or small seated reception in downtown Philadelphia. 

A little about the history, from the website "The Arcadia Theatre opened April 24, 1915 as a first run movie theatre with the movie "The High Road" and prices of 15c for matinee and 25c for evening shows." 

"Today you will find the upper portion of the former auditorium, now a second floor, still retains the ornate decor including the upper portion of the proscenium arch and a ceiling dome."

Check out their website and their blog to see some images and view more information.  I can't wait to shoot a wedding there! 

A couple weeks ago, I had the chance to photography a wonderful birthday party at The Loews Hotel in Philadelphia.  The wonderful staff there team up with the fabulous talents of Evantine Design to create a very chic affair.  Just wanted to share some of the beautiful details I caputred!
I'll be back at the Loews later in June for Amy + Josh's wedding!
