Becca & Brian get married

Vacation has ended, but we are still having fun because we got to spend the day with Becca and Brian! We have known Becca since she was in 7th grade (we were her junior high youth group leaders) and we have enjoyed watching her grow into a beautiful young woman. She has now married the love of her life, Brian, who get 2 thumbs up from us (isn't it great that the photographers get to give their stamp of approval!?)

Our day started off at Extended Stay America for the finishing touches with the girls. We had initially planned on doing the photography there, but the weather report was calling for thunderstorms all day. If it wasn't storming, it would be raining, if it wasn't raining it would be "steamy and tropical". Well, it turned out that the only part of the weather report that was accurate was the steamy and tropical part but everyone was thrilled because Becca and Brian dreamt of their photography outdoors. Anyhow, we ended up making a quick trip with the girls to a park across the street, thinking it may be the only time to get outdoor shots.

Next we headed over to the church, Frazer Mennonite, to meet up with the guys and get ready for the ceremony. The ceremony was beautiful, with a lot of thought put in to it by Becca and Brian. There were lovely tears between Becca and Brian and I caught Becca's sister Sarah holding back, which in turn, caused me to get all choked up - ahh, I love the variety of emotions experienced on wedding days.

The reception was held at People's Light and Theatre at the Farmhouse which was a beautiful setting to continue with the celebration. Lovely toasts were given, and we witnessed a really nice touch of lighting candles during the speeches. What a wonderful day it was. Thank you Becca and Brian for inviting us to share in this day with you. We wish you a wonderful honeymoon and we are so glad you'll remain a part of our lives!






Stay tuned for Becca's sister's wedding in 5 weeks!

We're back!

The office was closed because we were on VACATION! We have just enjoyed a wonderful 2 weeks off and are feeling refreshed and relaxed. The first week was spent with our fabulous children where we headed north to Neville's homeland (Canada) and enjoyed some rustic living. Here is just a glimpse of what we encountered on our trip:

I can't even begin to tell you how large that creature was (which decided to land on Lori's shoulder and yes, screams were heard miles away).

Part of our second week was spending 3 days at a photography workshop by the fabulous Australian photographer, David Williams. We really enjoyed our time at the workshop and also having some time for just us as well. Here is Neville and David:

We are really excited to head back in to the second part of the year.

Office Closed

The office will be closed July 13 - July 26. Sorry for this inconvenience. Please feel free to leave us a message and we'll respond as quickly as we can after the 26th.
Thank you, Lori & Neville

Sarah and Johnny Engagement

Ten years ago (or something like that!) we were Sarah's youth group leader, when she was a wee sixth grader, and now she's going to get married soon! Where does the time go? And have we aged that much!? What fun it is for us to share in the lives of our youth group from years ago and see them grow, mature, and now enter another fantastic stage of life. It is such a joy to us, that they are still a part of our lives. We had such a great time with Sarah and Johnny for their engagement session. We went to Baird Park, one of the places we seem to get to at least yearly. It is such a great unknown little spot and it always looks different to us - different light, different time of year. We are really looking forward to their wedding in September and can't wait to celebrate with them and their family. It's a busy summer for Sarah's family as her sister, Becca (see Becca and Brian Engagement ) is getting married in a few weeks. Can't wait!

Katherine & John get married

What a beautiful weekend of weather we had - the perfect day to celebrate a lovely wedding of the fantastic couple, John & Katherine! Our day started by heading downtown to Philly. We met up with Katherine at Pierre and Carlo Salon at the Bellvue where she and her girls had their hair and makeup done. After we finished with the girls up in their hotel room, we headed over to St. George Cathedral to meet up with the guys. The ceremony was Greek Orthodox which I find to be one of the most beautiful wedding ceremonies and is rich in tradition and symbolism. We did the formal photography at the church before heading back to the Bellvue. There is an amazing staircase there so we spent some time utilizing that space before the fun of the reception. The room was decorated by Evantine Design and it was fabulous, to say the least. We had a wonderful time capturing the celebratory atmosphere of the reception, again, filled with Greek tradition and great dancing. Thank you Katherine and John - may you have a wonderful honeymoon and beautiful marriage!
