Pre wedding shoot: private residence and Winterthur Country Estates and Gardens, Greenville, DE
Getting ready: Greenville County Club
Ceremony: Red Clay Creek Presbyterian Church-Wilmington,DE
Pics of couple and bridal party: Greenville Country Club
Reception: Under an amazing tent on the Greenville CC property
What I remember the most: What a nice couple Stef and Dan are! We really enjoyed working with their families. They made Jeff(my assistant photographer) and I feel so at home and comfortable. And the reception tables were identified by really unique pieces of slate that were left over from the estate house roof! The table names were hand painted on the slate in gold and they just fit so well into Steff’s wedding theme. The stunning and original flower design was created by the award winning Flower Designs by Yuki of Wiimington, DE. The reception was held in an amazing A/C tent where 270+ guests danced and partied to the sounds of Quake! Thank you Linda Gaynor from GVCC! Everything ran so smoothly! At one point Dan sat in on guitar/vocals and performed “Soul Man” with the band. The crowd was cheering and singing along everyone was so excited! What a party! And at the end of the evening a grand exit out of the tent with all the guests waving sparklers! WOW it was beautiful!

Thank You Steffany and Daniel! and the VERY proud parents- Margo, Bill, Laura and Greg

btw: we will be posting a beautiful Inspiration board this week that will include several unique touches from the wedding day. Stop by again real soon!

Coming back from a busy holiday weekend, we were greeted by the greatest email in each of our inboxes. We had to share with everyone what Jamie & Craig were so happy with….

I don’t know if you have any idea that I started playing with photography in the seventies but also was very involved professionally in music and recording. I owned and operated Audio Plus Recording Studio’s in Atlantic City, New Jersey, during with time I was designing and helping several other studios with design and electronic wiring. I was putting my self taught acoustical engineering to good use. Check out this article that was just published in Mix Magazine. Project Studio: S.S.R. Recording A very good friend of mine Bob Fowler(and my best man at my wedding!) was kind enough to mention me in his recent studio article. Thanks Bob and good luck with your studio, you deserve the press that’s for sure!
