Saturday, Krisha came along to shoot with me at Emily and Mark’s wedding. We traveled down to Philly to the Loew’s hotel in Center City. What a kick a$$ hotel!!
After circling the block a few times past the Amish country fair… we got in the garage and headed upstairs to meet Emily. All I can say is WOW!! They had the most incredible room over looking the city. I knew we were going to have awesome day! Once Emily was ready, Mark came up to the room to see her before hand. We used the room and hotel for a lot of the shots because it had the look I was going for this time. Very classic, like an old movie. Then we headed over to Rittenhouse Square where everyone was out since the weather was so beautiful. We did have to call and hitch a ride back because Emily’s feet started to hurt after hoofing it so far.
Back at the room, we shot all the family formals and then worked our way up one floor for cocktail hour. Yes, it was before the ceremony. The best idea ever!! Everyone was ushered into another room for the ceremony where Mark an Emily walked in together. The ceremony itself was fast, but very emotional. Dinner was served promptly after the ceremony on the 2nd floor. Then, we went back up stairs for cake and dancing. We noticed that their were fireworks going off across the water. As Mark and Emily danced their first dance, the finale started and we were able to capture that in the background. What a perfect day!! Here are some of my favorites and your show!
