elopements

Humira and Lionel’s Nikkah Islamic wedding was a deeply special day. They exchanged vows at a beautiful mosque adorned with Holy Qur’an writings.

The Nikkah ceremony, filled with religious significance, included the signing of the marriage contract and heartfelt “I do’s.” The Imam spoke about the sacred bond of marriage, highlighting “موده” or “mowada,” the unique bond between husband and wife.

Surrounded by loving family and friends, the ceremony was a memorable celebration of their union!

I captured Mo and Sara’s Islamic Marriage Ceremony, their Katb Ketab. Their love story is pure and fairytale-like. Despite heavy rain, they remained focused and at peace, surrounded by close friends and family.

They later celebrated with another wedding in Egypt, including Mo’s family. May Allah bless their marriage.

After the ceremony at Mercer County Park, we took wedding portraits in the woods with a beautiful flower arbor.

The rain and romantic setting highlighted their radiant love!

Adventure elopement at devil's punch bowl in Oregon

Haley and Matt’s adventure elopement on the Oregon Coast was the wedding day of their dreams. Starting in Portland, we journeyed to Corvallis, then to Devil’s Punch Bowl in Otter Rock. Capturing their first look and portraits during golden hour, surrounded by lush greenery, set the perfect scene for their non-traditional wedding in a natural setting. The day concluded with moody sunset photos on the beach and a cozy dinner in Newport. This destination elopement showcased the unique and romantic elopement photography styles I love. If you’re considering an adventure elopement, this is the way to go.

The women’s creative photoshoot meetup is a space where women can embrace their authentic selves. This initiative was born from the realization that photography is not just about aesthetics, but also a powerful emotional experience. Seeing oneself through the lens can be transformative, fostering self-love and empowerment. The core value of these meetups is to make women feel beautiful and powerful simply by being themselves. This recent fall-themed shoot felt like an intimate coffee social in the woods, filled with chai, pie, tarot cards, and heartfelt connections. The energy and joy from these gatherings are truly unparalleled.

On 11.07.21, I met Jacob & Cailey on a magical New Hope, PA evening, marking the beginning of our friendship. Fast forward to October 13th, 2022, I had the honor of capturing their intimate backyard wedding. Jacob & Cailey’s devotion to each other is evident in every detail of their special day, from their storybook home to the book of poems Jacob wrote for Cailey. Their small, non-traditional wedding was a beautiful testament to their love. Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Wilder.
