Hannah and Jon

Friday, Liesa and I headed to First United Methodist Church in Mechanicsburg for Hannah and Jon’s wedding. Then off to Liberty Forge for the reception. The weather wasn’t looking to good for us, so, we made the most of it! I have never seen a bride who didn’t care that it was raining! Everyone was a good sport when we doing pictures in the freezing rain!! So worth it!
I hope you guys get to see these before your Honeymoon!

Hereis your show!

The Shaffer’s

Because it was raining Friday night, Nikki called and said let’s just do the family in the studio….Well, on Saturday morning, 30 minutes before they left to come here, the sun came out. I called them right away and said “Meet me at Speedwell, we’ll chance it!”
I am so glad we did! We finished just in time before the crazy wind started. Here are a few of my favoites!

Daphne and Richard

Sunday, I headed to Lancaster to meet Daphne and Richard for their engagement shoot. We met at their church and walked around the city a bit. I love doing engagement sessions like this because it gives me a chance to hang out and get to know my couples before I am with them all day on their wedding.
Here are a few of my favorites!

Melanie and Nathan..married

Yesterday, Melanie and Nathan were married at the Lititz Springs Park. I was a little scared b/c the weather has been a little unpredictable the past few days. But it was perfect! Well, to those of us with coats on…Melanie’s Mom was almost in convulsions, she was shivering so bad!
After the wedding, we headed to the General Sutter for one of the most enjoyable receptions! This party was happening! I think Katie(my assistant) found herself a few new boyfriend’s!
What a great time guys!! Thanks!! Even the wedding crashers didn’t spoil a thing!!
For you!

I caught this just as he was ready to make his move on Katie!
This guy was hysterical!

Yesterday, I met Andy and Melissa in Lititz for their engagement session. We went to the park for a while and then headed off to Andy’s godparents. They had a fabulous backyard! Andy actually teaches with my husband, so it was nice to hang out with one of his friends! Thanks for breaking some rules and fences to get the shot!!

Gretchen and Kevin

Ok, so I was a little excited about today’s wedding, that I came home and got right to work.
I was truly blessed to have been part of their wedding. What a great couple! Their wedding was held in Hummelstown and then we headed to Founder’s Hall for formals. Later we ended up at Gretchen and Kevin’s home for the reception. Despite the high winds and the cold weather, it was perfect. Every detail was taken care of by Gretchen, including the cake! I wish I could tell you more about the day, but you really had to be there! Thanks guys for letting us be apart of you wedding and making us feel so welcome! Have fun in Williamsburg! I know I said this all day, but you guys are so cute!! Enjoy!

Amber and Brett

Last night I met Amber and Brett in Hershey for their engagement session. We just barely beat the rain!! But, I always tell everyone, overcast skys are the best for lighting!
It always seems that when I am with a couple, we always get into conversations about places to eat…Maybe it is because it is always around lunch or dinner time….So I have a new place to try thanks to Amber and Brett….Time to make a dinner date!!
Thanks Guys!!

Liesa, Liesa, Liesa!

So, I finally got Liesa out for her senior pictures! For those who don’t know Liesa, she is one of my assistants. She is studying photography also. This was a lot of fun for me, because I got to hang out with a friend and tell her like it is. But, every shot I took, she would say ” let me see it!” We as photographers are so used to being behind the camera, that once you get us in front of it, we freeze up and become self critical. (except me, I am just a ham!) So, Liesa, I hope these will make you happy….the other ones will make your Mom happy….
Leslie
For you Liesa
