Missy + Greg’s Victory Brewing Company Wedding

Missy and Greg’s wedding was my very first wedding at Victory Brewing Company…and as it turns out it was the first one they hosted as well. Needless to say, it was fun and great to shoot at a new location. The day started on the early side, 8am, and the humidity was lingering heavily, but a lovely breeze came about and the ceremony on the shore of Marsh Creek Park was perfect. As we went on to Victory, I got the chance to sneak Missy and Greg into the brewhouse…really cool photographically…not olefactorily though! Ha, we had fun and I can’t wait to go back. Thanks Missy and Greg for making me a part of the day! Enjoy a sneak peek into their day.

Kristen & Mike’s Mendenhall Inn Wedding

Let me say, WOW!, what a great day. Thank you Kristen and Mike for making me a part of your day, it was awesome. We had fun hanging out getting ready, a beautiful ceremony at St. Agnes in West Chester, totally fun formals at Westtown School thanks to Kristen’s Mom who works there, and lastly a blast of a reception at Mendenhall Inn. Overall, I was hot and exhausted by the end of the day, but it was all worth it! Oh, and a special thanks to Kristen and Mike for the Seasons 52 gift card and bottle of Tanqueray! Enjoy the peak at their wedding day!

UPDATE: I had to update this post with the small world that we live in! So, this afternoon a young guy I know from our church, John, texts me stating that his friend, from high school and college, was at a wedding that I was photographing. Turns out that it was Kristen’s cousin, Erin, one of the bridesmaids! In addition to that, Kristen works with the mother of Julianna, and Kristen’s Mom is a coworker of TWO former bride’s mothers! Turns out it was a conversation between Kristen’s Mom and one of my former bride’s Moms at work one day. I can go on and on, about it all connecting back to just one person, but that would be overkill. Just sayin that it’s a small world, so you always have to remember that every person you meet in life is important!

Oh, and a big thanks to me second photographer of the day, Erik Matey!

Kendall & Michael’s Loews Philadelphia Wedding

Wow…what a fun day, and amazing couple. It was truly one of my favorites, and being back at the Loew’s was great as well…good memories!! In addition to their totally fun engagement session in Citizen’s Bank Park with no holds barred, their wedding was fun. From the beginning as I got a text from my second photographer, Erik Matey, that the hotel fire alarm was sounding, to being back on the roof of the PSFS building, to all the emotions of the day, I had a great time. Thank you Kendall and Michael for trusting me to capture your day…I hope you enjoy the show….

Michelle + Michael’s Concordville Inn Wedding

Michelle and Michael’s wedding was as much fun as their engagement session. Did I mention the motorboating that occurred during their engagement session? Anyway, there was none of that during the wedding that I saw, but we had a great time. It was an honor to witness their day and especially the relationships in their families, specifically with Michelle and her father. Enjoy a snapshot of their day!

I love that I can keep looking back at the best day of my life so far and thank you so much for being there! :)

Chester County Food Bank

I had the honor, today, to take some staff portraits, and of a volunteer group at the Chester County Food Bank in Downingtown. Me being there had everything to do with Rev. Phoebe Kitson, a former minister at my church. She had asked me to take some better headshots of the staff, which I did, and also get some shots of the facility. It turned out that there was also a group of volunteers visiting this morning as well (even though their bus driver got lost a couple of time).

I discovered that the CCFB is an amazing organization that I’ll be back at again before too long. It’s also the place that my wife and I have been looking for to volunteer at as a family. They take any aged kids and they have an opportunity for us to volunteer right down the road at Pete’s Produce, who donates acres of land and crops to the organization.

The biggest thing I learned, is that Chester County, where I live, is the 24th wealthiest county in the COUNTRY and if you fenced us all in, we have better agricultural diversity, thus feeding ourselves, than the entire STATE of Iowa! Pretty amazing…enjoy a few images of the Chester County Food Bank, and volunteer if you are so moved.

The volunteer group was tasked with picking California Thistle from the planter beds where CCFB is growing their own spices for later cooked products…

Driving stakes for tomato plants, again for later projects…
an amazing food packaging machine that can seal wrap dozens of meals in a minute, then CCFB can instant freeze them in a HUGE instant freezer
Billed as the largest dyhydrater in Chester county, these are simple fruit roll ups made with…drum roll please…mashed strawberries, and applesauce…that’s it…it tasted better than ANY fruit roll up I’ve ever had
Some of the items the CCFB makes for organizations to grow, then donate the crops
Phoebe getting her volunteer motivation on…
the herb garden, up close
The restaurant quality kitchen for their meal creation…also the largest tilt skillet in Pennsylvania!

a panorama of their storage facility, which was more bare than they would like to see…so if you want to donate here is a reason why
