Erica & Tim’s New Jersey Wedding Photos

Erica & Tim were married at the end of June.  They had an all New Jersey wedding as everything was pretty local with Erica getting ready at her parent’s house, the ceremony down the street at St. Joachim Church (the very same church where Erica’s parents were married), wedding party photos on the campus of Princeton University and the reception at the Windsor Ballroom in East Windsor.

We had a beautiful day to celebrate with Erica & Tim.  Thank you to Lindsay Musser for assisting me that day. A few of the photos in this post are hers.   Thanks for having us Erica & Tim.  Congratulations again.  Enjoy your photos!

This was the 2nd “Thriller” dance done by a group of groomsmen that I have seen this year! What’s going on with all of the “Thriller” dances? Anyway, I’m into it.

Judy & Matt | Crystal Tea Room wedding photos

Judy & Matt were married at St. Mark’s Church in center city Philadelphia at the beginning of June.  They held their reception at the storied Crystal Tea Room in the Wanamaker building right across the street from City Hall.  It was a beautiful (if just a wee bit scorching hot) day.  We had great weather, nice light, a lovely couple and lots of fun working with Judy, Matt and their family and friends.  I was also fortunate enough to have Geoff Horowitz, a fellow Philadelphia Wedding  Project photographer, working along side me for Judy & Mat’s day.  Several of the images in this post are straight from Geoff’s creative eye.

Congratulations Judy & Matt.  Thank you again for having us.  Enjoy your images!

Ali & Ford’s Philadelphia engagement Photos

Ali & ford will be holding their wedding later this summer at the Colonial Dames House in Philadelphia.  The other week we met up also in Philadelphia (Fairmount Park to be precise) for their engagement shoot.  Ali & Ford have lived in and around Philadelphia for some time and they knew the park pretty well.  So, they led the route around the park from the Japanese Tea Garden area onto The  Belmont Plateau (where everybody go) for a breathtaking view of the Philadelphia skyline. Next we went back to Ali & Ford’s apartment….which is more like an incredible old, beautiful home.  You’ll see photos below.  They love living in this unique space and both realize that they won’t be able to live here forever, so we took some photos of Ali & ford around thier “current” home.  I felt like they could have had this place in a magazine like Dwell.  It was just too cool. Thanks so much for spending the evening with me guys.  I really enjoyed hanging out in your home.  I can’t wait for your wedding at Colonial Dames (one of my favorite venues)!

Pete Malone - Ali, when I first read your comment I though you said “We’ve had so many COMPLAINTS on these”!

I was like, “Oh no”!!

Thanks for the COMPLIMENT. I’m excited for your wedding in September too!

Ali - We have had so many compliments on these. Great job, Pete. We can’t wait to have you shoot our wedding day!! Thanks :)

LIz Duren - WOW, first, you really captured their personalities in the pictures, so I love it all even before we got to see that GORGEOUS home. They have great style. The wedding will be wonderful!
