I love this photo of them dancing as they left the ceremony!

Sneaking in a kiss during toasts :)

They got married at Sayen Gardens in Hamilton NJ and their reception took place at The Merion in Cinnaminson NJ.

I’ll be blogging the rest of my favorite images from their special day in my next post. In the meantime – enjoy!

And of course we can’t forget the guys! Here are a few shots taken by my second photographer, Nelson -

Stay tuned for more :)

My big sister Ata from InkHearts.com put these gorgeous invitations together based on the theme they chose, despite being occupied with her twin babies. I saw them and was totally awed – Fabulous and very me! Thank you so much for taking the time to do this Ata!

The invitations arrived in this pretty little box -
Just in case you are wondering who Bola is -It’s me! That’s my first name, Onada is my middle name  – people call me either or :)

And inside was this gorgeousness -

Did you figure out the theme yet? The shower took place this past weekend. Wait till you see the photos!
Coming soon :)

Our traditional wedding was soooo much fun BUT I’ll have to save that for another post (with photos too!) as I have a couple blog posts to get to first. Although I would have loved to stay on vacation longer I’m glad to be back (not so glad to see the state of my inbox though!). In the meantime stay tuned.

Now back to Mahlet and John – I photographed their wedding last month and while I was away their wedding got published on Essence Magazine’s website under their Bridal Bliss section – You can check out the feature here.

A big thank you goes out to Janie from The Bride’s Cafe for helping me get featured and managing the entire process while I was out of the country! Although I didn’t get to see the feature right away I was pretty excited about it and I’m very grateful for the opportunity.

Below are my favorite images from their big day. Mahlet and John are the sweetest couple and it was an absolute pleasure for me to be a part of their big day!

Their ceremony took place at Swarthmore Presbyterian Church in Swathmore PA and their reception was at The Old Mill in Rose Valley PA.

Check out Mahlet’s pretty Amsale gown -

She made a gorgeous bride -

The handsome groom, John -

Celebration during the cocktail hour -

I’ll be away from the next two weeks celebrating my traditional wedding  and I’m very excited!

I’ve been sooooo busy that I haven’t had the time to update this blog but I’ll be back before you know it and of course I’ll have some photos to share. In the meantime here’s a photo to hold you over while I’m gone – A gorgeous bouquet from Kylie and Jim’s wedding which I’ll be blogging as soon I return :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Say hello to Faisha and Leonard – I photographed their engagement session early April over at Washington Square, downtown Philadelphia and then we headed over to the Loews Hotels, where their relationship started after meeting at an event, to finish up the session. The weather was perfect and they were such a pleasure to photograph. Below are a few of my favorite images -

Congratulations on your engagement Faisha and Leonard – I wish you all the best in married life!

They met right outside these doors :)

Thanks for having me Janie!
And thanks to Mahlet and John for being such an awesome couple to photograph :)
