Kelly & Mike

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Kelly and Mike have awesome family and friends. Their fall beach celebration will be remember for a long time. We first met them at Melissa & Tod’s wedding a few years ago. Melissa was Kelly’s maid of honor.
We had a great get to know you session in Chesapeake City with Kelly & Mike’s pup Malibu. You may remember the cute yellow lab puppy from a few months ago.
We started the day at Kelly’s beach house with getting ready photos and some family photos with bay views in the background and headed to the St. Jude the Apostle in Lewes for the ceremony.
Everyone was excited for fun photos on the Lewes beach. My thanks go to Jim (Kelly’s dad) for assisting on the seagull photo. He save the day more then once!
The reception was held at one of our favorite shore locations, the Rehoboth Country Club. I had the “hill” photo in my mind for Kelly and Mike the entire drive to the beach and a little wait for golfers was not going to stop us. Kelly and Mike and their family and friends danced all night. All was captured on tape by Debbie from AOV Productions.
Kelly, Mike and families we loved being part of your big day. Keep enjoying your married life as much as you have been so far!

Anna & Michael    Old York Road Temple Beth Am-Abington, PA

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

The Couple: Anna Borshchezaskaya and Michael Rubin
Getting Ready: Old York Road Temple Beth Am, Abington, PA
Ceremony: Old York Road Temple Beth Am, Abington, PA
Pics of Couple, Bridal Party and Families: The grounds at Abington Friends School-Abington, PA
Reception: Old York Road Temple Beth Am, Abington, PA
What I remember most about Anna and Michael’s Wedding Day: Anna was very excited and nervous too to be marrying Michael..butterflies up till the time they met :) The first sight was a very special moment, the smile on Anna’s face so warm and loving. Michael was just beside himself when he saw Anna in her wedding dress for the first time! The ceremony was held at Old York Road Temple Beth Am in Abington, PA, under a beautifully flower accented Huppa that was surrounded by beautiful light shining in from above. Rabbi Leib performed the symbolic Jewish ceremony like no other Rabbi can! I also want to thanks Jackie Cheifetz from OYRTBA for her help and hospitality. Friends family and loved ones all were there to witness these special moments between Anna and Michael….
Anna, Michael, the entire wedding party were photographed on the beautiful property at Abington Friends School. The light was just right and the historic feel and groomed property was a bonus for pics. All of the families and friends were just as fun to be around. A very close family with strong values. We had such a great time with the little ones at the Friends School. Thank you, The families of Anna and Michael- Suzanne and Ellis the (mother and father of the bride) thank you for your warm and generous hospitality. Suzanne and Ellis you have a beautiful daughter inside and out! You should be so proud!

Madison “Maddie” will be graduating this year from High School. She is so excited! This is not the first time we worked with Maddie, she did a “Sweet 16″ with us 2 years ago, and she could not wait to be in front of the camera again! :) She is a pleasure to photograph, she just LOVES to have fun!! We captured her as she was “MADDIE being MADDIE”. She will be attending a very well know and prestigious music school for voice in NYC next year. I wish her the very best, she is so sweet, outgoing and confident! She will definitely be making a mark for herself in the future.

Briar & Jaffar

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

Briar and Jaffar opted for a very nontraditional wedding celebration with a small circle of friends. It was a non-wedding wedding as they liked to call it.
The whole event took place at Davio’s in Philadelphia. The theme was Moroccan and Middle Eastern. The colors were amazing. We especially loved the golden place cards decorated with peacock feathers.
Briar and Jaffar wanted to capture some private portraits first, so we walked the streets around Davio’s. I have to admit not so private on a beautiful Saturday afternoon.
The ceremony took place among very few invited guests on the terrace at Davio’s and was officiated by the couple’s very good friend. It was one of the most moving moments I have experienced. Thank you for allowing us to be part of your day.
Briar and Jaffar and their family and friends had an amazing time and we wish them all the best in their life together.
