A mutual friend connected me with Gina and Steve in the spring of 2011. That's when we got together for their engagement pictures. Not long after, they booked me to be their wedding photographer. While most of my weddings are in the Pocono Mountains, I looked forward to the trip to photograph their wedding at Park Inn by Radisson in Harrisburg. Thanks to Brenda Friday for introducing me to Gina and Steve and good luck to both of you!

Gina's father walked her down the isle at Park West Inn. About 80 friends and family were gathered to watch Gina and Steve exchange their vows. 

These next three pictures are among my favorites from the wedding. They are all candid, spontaneous pictures. When brides talk about photojournalism wedding photography, I think this is what they mean.

My favorite moment at the wedding was when Gina and her father shared a dance. Gina's niece found a nice spot to watch them dance. I wanted to shoot the dance from the way she was watching it and I think it worked out great. Another example of photojournalism wedding photography. 

The rest of the night was a ton or partying and dancing. Gina and Steve's families and friends make me feel so welcome that I felt like I was part of the wedding party. I know Gina and Steve are just beginning a lifetime of happiness together. They are two of favorite people I have ever photographed.
