Here are some beautiful Highlights from Beth and Sean’s Hotel Dupont Wedding in September…or as I like to refer to it Monsoon Season
since it rained every weekend for over a month straight.
Let’s start with the girls…


Mimosas anyone?

No I didn’t hang her shoes from the chandelier because of a mimosa



I adore this getting ready shot!


While I was upstairs with the girls, Dave was hanging out with the guys.



Time to get married!




“Hmmm what’s going on? “

I love recessional shots
Happiness just abounds!!!!


Some fabulous details!!! Seriously you can’t go wrong with the Hotel Dupont. The service and the staff are top notch and their attention to detail is impeccable.



Time the first dance.
I just love the feeling of this next one.



Speech Speech Speech!!!



Ok now these next few are pulled from a series of one of the funniest moments of the night. The groomsman actually danced in front of this girl and she was so embarrassed because her boyfriend who was sitting on the sidelines was egging the groomsman on. It was too funny!!!



Time for some cake.


And finally some creative images…

Last week I had the pleasure of photographing for the Lost and Found Dog Rescue Adoption Center in Wilmington, DE. As most of you know animals are a very very close to my heart. We alone have 2 mini schnauzers and a cat…..Though after this photo shoot the hubby tried to get me to bring home one of the adorable puppies.
I also had the pleasure of working with the reigning Miss Delaware for 2010 Julie Citro again (if you click the link she’s the one in the bottom 2 images).
So without further ado here are some images from our shoot:







Well it’s here. On Friday my family and I will officially be moving to Havertown, PA. Please be aware that I will not be available after 5pm on the 27th thru Sunday the 31st. I will be back online on the 1st of February and will answer emails in the order they arrive.
We appreciate everyone taking the time to let us get settled into our new life and all the wonderful changes it will bring for Leave It To Me Photography.

This past weekend I FINALLY took my son’s 4yr pictures. I have had this idea for months but with our impending move I wasn’t able to execute it till now. Yes there was bribery with candy
, but just look at these images. I think it was all worth it don’t you?




As always if you like what you see please feel free to leave a comment

Today my husband and I had a day to ourselves…kid free!!! Thanks to my wonderful in-laws. So we decided to do a little shopping. How does this benefit you, you may ask? Well I went into the newly open (Gigantic….no seriously it’s bigger than the 2 story Barnes and Noble) Forever 21 and scored some beautiful new accessories for my clients!!! Yes I do come to shoots with a treasure chest of accessories. Just ask Zach and Christine
So do you want a peek at what I bought? Well take a look…
I ADORE this piece because it can not only be worn as a necklace, but also as a headband.



And finally the little bolero Jackets with all of the accessories!!! They were too cute to pass up and will add a little punch of color.

I shot these images quite a while ago with my friend Chrissie of C. Raysor Photography. We met up in West Chester and just walked around capturing what caught our eye.
I’m actually thinking of printing a few of these for our new home. If you’re interested in purchasing one of these prints feel free to shoot me a email at info{@}leaveittomephotography.com.

Enjoy.

All I have to say is Thank you for laying down on these cold cold bricks!!!! You guys were such great sports!!!

Christine you’re beautiful!!!



I’m totally having this one printed for my new office!!! LOVE!!!

Do you see that fabric draped in the background? Well that’s is Christine’s moms wedding veil. It always adds a special personal touch when couples bring something meaningful to their session.

Remember Courtney and Ricky from their “Just Us” Engagement session and their “Sneak Peek” ? Well Dave and I shot their beautiful winter wedding on December 12th in Aberdeen, MD. They were married at Grace United Methodist Church which has the most beautiful stained glass behind the altar and their reception was held at the Cal Ripken Stadium.
OK now on to what you came to see…..
Courtney’s beautiful lace gown.









Jamie (Courtney’s) older sister gave the most heartfelt speech.




I LOVE the father daughter dance and these two did not disappoint.



Guess who caught the garter?



Oh Yeah!!! Courtney’s brother brought the sprinkler

My Favorite Shot of the Day!!!!…and it’s Dave’s.

Thank you McGuirk and Woollens families for letting us capture such a special occasion.
