Miss Giana Rose

Its rare that I get to do any kids portraits, because I am usually too busy with weddings, but I have to say that this was one of my favorite sessions in a while. Kids have an innocence and energy that can't even be explained, but I know it makes me happy just being around them. Giana Rose is the daughter of my sister's friends Alicia and Nicky, and she is one of the cutest little kids I have ever been around. Giana is going into 1st grade this year, and she got some new boots for school, but she couldn't wait to wear them. This little girl is such a doll, and a pleasure to have around, because she really believes that she is an adult. Alicia and Nicky, I hope you love these photos as much as I do!

Megan and Mike-Married Adelphias Deptford, NJ

I know that I haven't blogged in a while because I have been working on albums, thank-you cards and edits from all of this summer's weddings. I figured I would take my Saturday night to put together a new blog post.

I second shot Megan and Mike's wedding with my friend Nate Juliano . Nate had recently had MCL surgery, so part of my job for the day was to carry all of our equipment. I knew my P90x weighlifting skills would eventually come in handy for a wedding! I have to say though, the next day was a sore one. Nate snapped this photo of me on the wedding day, and then he labeled the equipment that I was carrying. He tagged me on facebook with this photo, and I thought it was too funny not to share here. So, here is a pic of me being hercules on Megan and Mike's wedding day.

Megan and Mike's wedding took place in Marlton, NJ and then the reception was held at one of my favorite reception locations, Adelphia's in Deptford, NJ. These two are adorable together. Megan looked gorgeous, and the day was perfect.

Alex turns 1!

Its crazy that it was a full year ago that we sat in the hospital through the night waiting for this little guy to arrive. Our nephew turned one on Wednesday, and we celebrated yesterday at Austins dad's house. The Mickey Mouse themed party turned out great, and it was nice to share the day with family. Now, I may be a little biased, but I really think that we have the cutest little nephew ever. As he gets older I seem to think he looks more and more like his dad, but he was also lucky to get his mom's gorgeous green eyes. Don't you just want to squeeze him? So cute...

Happy 1st B-day Alex!

Karen and John- Married Tavistock Country Club Haddonfield, NJ

A few weeks ago I posted a sneak peek of Karen and John's 4th of July wedding, and now not I only do I have some more photos, but I have a slideshow of the gorgeous day. John and Karen got married at the same church where Karen's parents were married in Woodbury, NJ at the Southwood Baptist Church. After the ceremony, we went over to Tavistock Country Club in Haddonfield, NJ for the reception. I love that Karen chose to accent the bridesmaid's navy blue dresses with chartreuse which is one of my favorite shades of green. And Karens dress, wow... what can I say? Karen's dress was definitely one of my favorites from this year. The sparkly detailing was so pretty, and Karen looked so gorgeous. Since it was the 4th of July we just had to finish off the night with some sparkler shots.

Now you know what I mean about the dress huh?



And it looked even better on
