Brigitte and Ryan at the Northhampton Valley Country Club


Brigitte and Ryan were married at St. Adalbert Church on E. Allegheny Ave in Philadelphia. We were able to squeeze in some photography around the city in between the raindrops. We did the best we could and had some fun with it along the way. Skies cleared by the time we got back to The Northhampton Valley Country Club in Richboro. We had plenty of opportunity to photograph on their beautiful grounds before the reception.

Brigitte and Ryan's first dance was top secret. Not even the DJ, Kim Alexander Walsh, (who also spun the tunes at my very own wedding two years earlier) would let me in on all the details. It was a first dance of all first dances. It had all the elements of every special first dance I've photographed, but this one had an extra shot of adrenaline. In between your standard slow number was a montage of about 10 songs where they took turns on the floor. I'm not sure if I could describe it better if I remembered all the tunes and I hope that you could get a sense of it in only 2 dimensions, but as I told my second photographer that night, I think it was the most fun I've ever had watching a first dance unfold. Clearly Brigitte and Ryan spent a lot of time on it and it showed.

Great day, great friends and family and a great place to have a wedding. Congratulations again to Brigitte and Ryan.
