US IN ACTION IN 2010

Posted in Personal

At some point during what was probably around the middle of the year, we decided that to help add to the fun we have at weddings, we would start taking random pictures of one another throughout the day.  I don’t know where we came up with this but sometimes it can be quite amusing and other times we are saying ‘why in the world would you take that picture of me.’   Although it is a little embarrassing, and we are still not quite sure why we decided to share them with the world, here are just a few of the random pics we took of one another in 2010.  Enjoy!

Tiffany, I know you can see that I’m trying to take a picture of the dresses behind you.

I promise this was a business related email I was responding to and not “facebooking”.

This is the funny looking face you make when you know someone is taking your picture and you don’t want to act like you know :)

I think Tiffany was pretending that she was taking a picture…..

Once again I’m being used as the guinea pig while Tiffany “checks her light.”

Happy Wednesday!

CENTER SQUARE GOLF CLUB : STEPHANIE & ANDRE’S WEDDING

Posted in Weddings

You may remember Stephanie & Andre from their engagement pictures posted here not all that long ago.  Well the time had come for their wedding date, and you could almost feel the excitement & anticipation in the air.  Ron & I had a ball shooting their wedding, and although it was a rather cold day, Stephanie’s smile was shining as bright as ever.   Enjoy!

Classic but beautiful!

There is that bright smile we were talking about.

We couldn’t resist.

Stephanie’s long time friend surprised her by bringing his own personal horse and carriage to the ceremony for her to ride in.

And this was her reaction to the surprise…we loved it!

Then on to the Center Square Golf Club for the reception and more B&G portraits!

Since Stephanie’s family is from New Orleans, the reception definitely had that down home southern feel.

I think I once had a cookie that taste that good….I’m still looking for the crumbs!

Stephanie & Andre, thanks for everything!

ROYS RESTAURANT & CANON 85MM F1.2

Posted in Personal, Travel

A fews months back when we traveled down to Baltimore to shoot Jen & Brian’s wedding, we took the opportunity the night before to go to what is currently our FAVORITE restaurant, Roy’s.  Roy’s is a Hawaiian Fusion restaurant that  is a sheer delight from appetizer to dessert and everything in between.  If you can remember from our post here, our only problem is that the Roy’s that was here in Philadelphia, closed this past summer, so the next closest one to us is in Baltimore.  Being the opportunist that we are, we got in town early enough the night before to check into our hotel and then enjoy ourselves…..

Another thing to mention (for you photo nerds), was that for the wedding, we rented a Canon 85mm f1.2 lens that we read so much about.  We played with it a little, wondering how and when we could fit it in to our business plan, since it commands a pretty hefty price tag.  This lens is insanely sharp and the F1.2 part of it practically allows you to shoot in the dark with no flash…..so thats exactly what we did.  We took our camera & the lens along with us to Roy’s, so each picture in this post was taken with it (except the obvious one below)

Look at how buttery smooth that background is…and what better way to start off our meal than with the famous Hawaiian martini.

This picture was taken with my phone just in case you didn’t believe us that the food is incredible.

Ok….so at the end of the night, the nice waitress offered to take a picture of us with our camera and lets just say she didn’t quite know how to get the camera to focus properly.

Here is a picture of the lens that we have been talking about, you can check it out here on Canon’s website or here on B&H’s website.

And here are 2 example’s from pictures we took the next day, of the awesome images that the Canon 85mm F1.2 is capable of producing.  I wouldn’t be surprised if the next time you see us shooting around town, you see this lens on our camera.

Happy Thursday!
