I absolutely love this photo. It's all about Shape & Shadow (which is an ongoing project of mine) and it's meaning is open to interpretation.

Denise's dress was actually a pale violet and it suited her skintone beautifully. I love the pink stones in her wedding band as well.

The sand ceremony was really special, how it included Nathan.

I love that this photo isn't at all posed or staged, it was captured only minutes after the ceremony ended.

So many smiles! I love it!

Such a beautiful moment with mother & son.

Nathan wasn't so keen to dance with his mom in front of so many people but Denise managed to get him up there and having fun.

I love this emotional moment after the toasts.

Pam Moore is such a riot! She blindfolded the guy who caught the garter, so he didn't know he was putting the garter on a guy!

Lori, from Fusion Salon, did a top-notch job on Rachel's hair. It really was amazing. Unfortunately though, when we returned to their hotel room, Rachel was unhappy with her makeup. Thankfully, I have a decent enough knowledge of makeup (from my many trips to the MAC store for my own makeovers!) and since Rachel liked how my makeup looked, I quickly retrieved my makeup kit and did a mini makeover on her. Whew! Crisis averted! **Might I also add that this was a prime example of how having a 2nd photographer with me enabled us to not lose any time here as she continued to document as I played makeup artist.

Adam is the world's biggest Flyers Fan. I mean it. Don't test this theory.

How many bridesmaids does it take to get a bride into a wedding gown? A LOT. Seriously!

One of my favorites of Rachel (and her dress).

I love the excitement here as Rachel's Dad escorts her down the aisle.

Adam loves Rachel's son, Austin, as his own and Austin calls him Daddy.

I love when they think nobody's paying attention. LOL

My favorite moment of every wedding day.

This turned out to be one of my absolute favorites. Rain isn't so bad, now is it?

The dark purples, silvers and blacks turned out to be a beautiful combination for their decor.

Another favorite photo. This is is just sooooooo......THEM. This is the Adam & Rachel we know and love.

Adam and his mom are very close and so when the danced to "Simple Man" by Lynyrd Skynyrd, my tear ducts just may have been overactive. Just maybe. But it's not certain.

Austin was having the time of his life!

He's also quite the show off. LOL

I must admit that one of the hardest parts of this job is staying off the dance floor. Luckily, as part of the arrangement in having me photograph their weddings, my friends have been gracious enough to accept my stipulation that I be allowed to have fun at the reception. haha! (With my 2nd photographer still covering the event, of course!)

Tessie got this great shot of me & hubby - one of my favorites to this day.

and the coverage wouldn't be complete without a shot of the Boston Market club. All of us met each other while working for Boston Market! For many of us, it was our very first job.

I love when a bride wears non-white shoes!

If I could say one photo captures the mood of the entire day, it might be this one.

...or this one tells the story well too. LOL

I love that the parents came out to stand in the aisle for the kiss of peace. It made some nice framing for this shot.

After taking some photos at the church, we headed over to Dover Downs to do the bridal party photos.

The lobby of the Dover Downs Hotel & Casino provided a great location for indoor portraits.

There was so much laughter and smiling the entire day!

Eddie looked quite dapper and we could barely get a serious shot out of him for all the smiling!

When we arrived at the country club, I was greeted by a fantastic array of details. As I'm sure many of you know, details are one of my things to photograph, besides people!

Eddie's mom owns a bakery in Dover, Figgy's Fancy Cakes, who created their stunning and elaborate cake display.

Talk about emotional speeches!!

DJ Mike showed everyone how it's done!

Everybody had a great time on the dance floor!

and a shot to end the night with.

My mom's favorite color is black, so it was inevitable that she would find a beautiful black dress to get married in. haha!

It's been said that diamonds are a girl's best friend, but not so much for Lindsay! Lindsay is one of an ever growing population of ladies who are inclined to love one of the many other gorgeous gemstones that exist.

Lindsay's wedding band is truly unique. it was custom styled after her parents' wedding bands and it fits her engagement ring snug as a bug in a rug.

Amazing smile this girl has! Beautiful eyes too. She made a stunning bride.

Lindsay & Nick's ceremony was emotionally stimulating in every way possible. There was laughter, there were tears and tons of "awww!" moments.

Their most favorite book titles featured as a centerpiece for each table, along with different colors of mums, which the guests were able to take home after the event.

Library sign out cards inspired their placecard design and it was surely the most unique placecard I've seen.

Their personal monogram, designed by Nick, was featured on this intricately carved pumpkin, as well as on their toasting flutes and on the back of their placecards.

Cupcakes!! EVERY time I see this photo I am overcome with an overwhelming urge to rush to the local bakery and stuff my face with confectionary goodness. It's almost painful.

This is my favorite first dance image to date. It's now hanging on the wall of my client meeting area as a 30"x40" canvas!

Some true craziness ensued on their dance floor. All in good fun though!

I'll end with a fun (albeit not quite focused) photo of Andrea, Lindsay & myself. Two very awesome women and two of my (admittedly many) favorite weddings.
