Genny + Matt : Washington Memorial Chapel Wedding and Normandy Farm Reception in Valley Forge, PA

July 12, 2013 by Jensey 5 Comments

Summer wedding season is in full swing, people! We’ve been adventuring in Castaway Cay, twice in Philadelphia in a month, and now we’re on our way to Canada. I’m excited to share some preview photos from our 4th of July wedding in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania. If you haven’t taken a middle school history class in a few years and need a refresher, you can read more about its significance here. ;)

I seriously cannot wait to share more of these photos when we’re done because their ceremony location was amazing. Washington Memorial Chapel had such fun architecture to shoot with and its view overlooking Valley Forge was stunning!

We stopped briefly at the National Memorial Arch for bridal party photos, then it was on to Normandy Farm for their reception!

Genny and Matt, we can’t wait to share the rest in the coming weeks! <3

Just a quick preview from Jennifer and Greg’s wedding in Pennsylvania!

The rain moved their ceremony indoors, but it was still absolutely perfect. :)

Jennifer and Greg’s wedding site, the William Penn Inn, is the oldest running Inn in Pennsylvania.

Favorite!! Jennifer and Greg, thank you for being so patient with these preview photos- Can’t wait to share the rest! :)

Larisa + Eric : Anniversary

August 28, 2012 by Jensey 8 Comments

It’s hard to believe it’s already been a year since Larisa and Eric’s wedding day! When Larisa contacted us about coming up to Philadelphia for a family session with her sweet parents and an anniversary session with Eric, I was over the moon! I wish these happened more often- Such a fun way to keep up with our couples and oh, what a difference a year makes! We had fun catching up about our respective moves (them to FL, us to TN), new homes, and of course, our adorable pups!

This session was such a reminder to ME that it’s time for Nate and I to book a session for ourselves! This December marks 5 years of wedded bliss for us, and I want to capture our life now– In the midst of the madness and before kiddos. :) It’s always easy to find a million excuses to put it off- mainly because of my own body issues, but every year I regret not doing it, and I kinda want to get in the habit before we have a family, because those are years I definitely don’t want to miss!

It kinda makes me want to promote anniversary mini sessions for our past couples… Any takers? ;)

I absolutely loved downtown Philly!

I should have watched Rocky before I visited, though. Next time!

You guys are gorgeous.

Cute shoes meant sore feet for Larisa, but she was a total trooper- and there’s nothing wrong with ending a shoot with a piggy back ride! Come back tomorrow for Larisa’s family session! :)

More Larisa and Eric love on the blog!
