Summer Flower Arrangement from Red Earth Farm at West Chester Growers Market

This flower arrangement includes a great collection of sunflowers, ageratum, ameranth, zinnia, gladiolus and celosia.   There were several to choose from and each had its own special look.  The main web page for the farm is here, with a link to the page describing the flowers they offer at different times of the spring and summer.  Special occasion arrangements include flowers for weddings, including: bride’s bouquets, bridesmaid bouquets, table arrangements, altar bouquets and cake toppers.  Flowers are grown in season without chemicals!

A beautiful day with a gorgeous bride and her groom. Angela and Joe were a wedding photographers dream – well organized, prepared and ready for their day. As was the weather.

The bride, groom, families and friends made September 11th a day of remembrance with this special event in their lives. They honored the day, their families and each other – as you can see in the photos.

The opportunity to work with these families, and Angela and Joe, became a special event in my life too.

The food – in a word: WOW! The Carlino’s staff understands food and prepared it for this event’s cocktail hour and desserts with love, creativity and passion. Equally excellent were the meals prepared by the Union League of Philadelphia.

My thanks to Joe Pulcinella who graciously second shot for me and captured some of these timeless wedding day images. Also, special thanks to my tall, wonderful son who was my personal assistant from the beginning to the end of this day and without his help and equally great camera images the day could not have worked as smoothly as it did.

Angela wore a pair of beautiful Manolo Blahnik’s.  The Manolo Blahnik brand increased greatly in popularity in the last few years thanks to Sarah Jessica Parker
