Bloomsburg’s Barn at Boone’s Dam Wedding | Celia and John | Pennsylvania Wedding Photography

In the peak of Autumn, Celia and John stood in front of the Barn at Boones Dam along fishing creek, read each others vows, and passed their wedding rings to each guest.  With a romantic, sweeping kiss, they celebrated their love in front of their family, friends, and children.  And never have a seen a happier couple prance down the aisle, husband and wife.

Our morning started out with quiet cuddles, naps, and bottle feedings.  Celia and John’s day was about more than just the two of them- it was about their small family of 4.  Father/daughter and mother/son dances were shared through generations so that Cam and Marlowe could dance with their Mom and Dad, and mid ceremony, the cutest wedding crasher crawled into Celia’s arms, flashing his smile (and pull up) to the guests.  Bridesmaids held gorgeous hand crafted bouquets and the occasional toy car.  I’ve never seen a group of people love on two kids so much, and in turn, love on Celia and John.

The Barn at Boones Dam was cozy and inviting, decorated in lace and elegant warmth.  As guests danced the night away, there was no lack in community.  Celia and John have weaved their love through the town where their love began, and as John’s best man stated, it isn’t odd to be walking with John down Main Street and hear people yell from passing cars, “Hey!  John Gray!”  You get back what you put out, and John and Celia were surrounded by warmth and love.

I have loved watching this family grow over the past year.  I can’t wait to see where the future takes them! Continue reading “Bloomsburg’s Barn at Boone’s Dam Wedding | Celia and John | Pennsylvania Wedding Photography”

We met for pizza to discuss wedding photography and we photographed their engagement session at the Creamery at Penn State.  Meg and Joey are fun spirited, head over heels for each other, and know how to treat everyone around them to some really good food!  Their Barn at Boone’s Dam wedding featured make your own pasta, a pretzel and cheese steak bar, a Rita’s cart, and a cookie bar…..oh, and also the cutest couple I ever did see!

Despite a day that surprised us with a mixture of rain and clouds, I can’t imagine a couple more excited to get married!  Throughout the day, they danced in the rain, kissed under an umbrella, and strolled through the lush garden at The Barn.  I f”ell in like” with these two over that first slice of pizza, but watching them enjoy every crazy second of their wedding day, breath in the fresh air, and be in the moment, made me fall head over heels in love with them.

I’m so excited that I will be sending this gallery off soon!  Congratulations Meg and Joey! Continue reading “Bloomsburg Barn at Boone’s Dam Wedding | Meg and Joey | Pennsylvania Wedding Photographer”

Summer Wedding Inspiration | Pennsylvania Wedding Photography

Let’s talk about summer  It’s the most popular time to get married, yet it comes with a very unique set of challenges.  If  you live on the East Coast, pretty much anywhere along the east coast, you know that summer has approximately 5 nice days, all of which just happen to fall on long work days or days when you’ve got the summer cold.  Other than that, it is hot and humid and basically the air feels like soup.  But do not let this deter you!!!  Summer weather calls for light, airy fabrics, pastel colors, naked cakes, and lush, cascading flowers.  These are just some of the trends I have seen at weddings this summer which have made the heat and humidity seem like a faraway thought.

Top tips:

Keep it light (fabric and color)

Keep it airy (clothing, venue, atmosphere aesthetically speaking)

Keep it lush

Keep it interesting

 

Some beautifully crafted samples below!

The Barn at Boone’s Dam | Kaitlyn and Sean | Bloomsburg Wedding Photography

barn at boones dam wedding photography_0947Sean could barely contain his excitement when he heard Kaitlyn’s dress rustling as she walked up behind him.  He had been waiting to see his bride for the first time under an ivy covered trellis while the sun peeked in and out of the clouds.  Behind him, his bride was framed in bright autumn colors that seem to dissapear as soon as they arrive.  As Kaitlyn approached and Sean turned to see her, there was nothing but love filling the air.  Their first look is one I will never forget, along with the rest of their day.
