Amanda and James's Weddiing Sept 20

Amanda and James chose the Buhl Mansion in Sharon, Pa. for their wedding. I have driven by the mansion a couple times but what a treat it was to see inside. I have never seen such a beautifully decorated 20's era mansion. It even had a spa.

It was perfect weather! The ceremony was on the lawn and it was great fun taking pics with the trees in the back that looked like an old painting. The reception was in a tent and the wedding party was energized!

Amanda and James are going to Costa Rica for Honeymoon just like Kathy and Mike. Have fun all!

Kathy and Mike's Wedding Sept. 13

Kathy and Mike's live in Arizona but had the wedding in Pittsburgh and it was a bit strange because when we where in Fla the week before, we where stressed out about hurricane Ike that could have hit us in Fla but it missed, hitting Texas instead. Here it is a week later and we get hit by Ike in Pittsburgh!

The rains started right after the ceremony, fortunately the wedding party had a great attitude and where real troopers when we where taking pictures around Pittsburgh. We found a great mural on Smallman St and it looked great with the umbrellas. Next we had to find a place where we could take pics of everyone in the wedding party, we found it under the Ft Pitt Bridge with the city in the background. Everyone had fun and never complained about the mud!

Next we went to Heinz field for the reception which is a great place and we even got a chance to go the Steeler Locker room for pics.

Kathy and Mike are going to Costa Rica for their honeymoon.

Faith and Adrain's Wedding Sept. 7

This was one of the first "Elopements" I have done. Which is interesting, since I have had a few calls this year for the same.

Faith and Adrain contacted by phone and had a plan to keep the event secret up until the last minute. They chose Mandarin Oriental to stay for a couple days and have the ceremony on the grounds. They also chose my good friend Bishop Sean Alexander as the officiant. It was a beautiful day even though Hurricane Ike was lurking a couple hundred miles away and giving us brief squalls.

Thanks Faith and Adrian!

All the best!

Navah and Bryan's Wedding Aug 31

I never met Navah and Bryan before the wedding, but Bryan and I where in heavy contact for weeks before the weddding. He is the one who updated my new website. By the time it was all done, Bryan and I where very close, and he did a great job. It was great to finally meet him and his beautiful wife to be in person.

Their wedding was at the Four Seasons Hotel in Palm Beach. It was held outside and we where very fortunate to beat some of the bad weather with the outdoor ceremony.

Navah and Bryan where an absolute treat to photograph. I am a big fan of Horst, who photographed for VOGUE Magazine for years and I have always wanted to imitate his work. Something I will never do for any other photographer.

Navah and Bryan had that classic look that would work great for that. We got a couple cool shots, but I must admit that I wish we had alot more time.

Bryan is linked in my Link section.

Thanks Navah and Bryan!
