wissahickon valley park engagement session.

earlier this month, my partner and I headed out to the Valley Green Inn + Wissahickon Valley Park with Carolyn and John, two locals who have had many great memories in the park, making it a great location for their engagement session. as we walked around, they told us all kinds of stories associated with different locations. in all, it was a beautiful day and it was great fun watching them warm up in front of the camera. we’re looking forward to their nuptials in April! want to see more photos from the shoot? check Carolyn and John out on my flickr.

wayyyy back in september, i was swamped with weddings. i finally finished and posted the photos from my friends’ wedding on september 18, 2011 at tyler arboretum. i’m really pleased with the results- and it’s gotten me very excited for another friend’s wedding coming up next weekend! here’s hoping the warm weather we’ve been experiencing in philadelphia sticks around.

philadelphia punk rock flea market, etc.

so the weekend after art star was a busy one for me. on saturday, i photographed another South Philly wedding- this time it was the union of Peggy and Angelo. it was definitely a lively bunch of family and friends! this is the second time i’ve worked a wedding where Jeanette Ivey did the makeup- and i was equally as blown away at her talent as i was the first time around. if you’re in the market for any type of professional makeup application services, check out her company Ivey Artistry. anyhow, here’s some preview pics of the bride and groom:

clowning around with the best man and maid of honor.

peggy and angelo looking glam.

the following day, my photography partner Gary and I worked our first engagement session with my friend Jerry and his fiancee Kristin. we stayed local, hitting up Mason’s Mill Park/Safetytown and Pennypack Park. you can see all of my images on my flickr. OR, even better- you can see the full set by both Gary and I on our Mizfam Facebook page- like us!

after the engagement session, i headed down to R5′s bi annual Punk Rock Flea Market to say “hey” to my friend Bryan and his gal/dedicated art show helper, Hilary. did you check out his work yet?! i hope so! (see my links- his company is Yard Sale Press) this is one of my favorite prints by him- it’s hanging in my studio:

i wandered around and soaked up all the hipster bullshit . . . and bought some seriously awesome jewelry from Overdue Industries. looking at their website, they only really feature the upcycled journals they make- but their jewelry is afforable and super unique. here’s some crappy iphone photos of my new accessories!

i also really loved this print by dan gneiding of grayhood- but i ran out of cash from buying the jewelry haha. whoops!
