Sarah + Nic | Schenley Park Cafe Wedding Photos

I’m so darn excited to post Sarah & Nic’s wedding!  The weather couldn’t have been any better, the light couldn’t have been more perfect, the venue couldn’t have been any more beautiful, and the couple couldn’t have been more fun to photograph.  Schenley Park is a special place to them, and they even had their engagement photos taken there, so it only made sense to have their wedding there too. This is the first time I’ve photographed a wedding at the Schenley Park Café, and I gotta say if you’re still considering venues for your ceremony or reception, consider this place – it’s awesome!  I’ve known Nic for a few years and he’s one of the hardest working and funniest guys I know, and Sarah is a total sweetheart and together they make a perfect couple. My wife Amanda and I had such a blast photographing this wedding and trust me, it was really hard picking out my favorites for this post.  Enjoy their Schenley Park Cafe Wedding!

I love these next two; their little flower girl Eva decided to steal the show and empty her flower basket (that she filled with rocks) right in the middle of their vows.  I think she likes the attention :)composite8 thumb(pp w768 h352) - Sarah + Nic | Schenley Park Cafe Wedding Photos

I love Phipps Conservatory; the landscaping is always impeccable and there are so many great locations around the area for photos.  Their ceremony was later in the day so by the time we were ready for photos the sun was setting and the light was just amazing!AVP 11 07 AVP SarahNicWedding 1470 Edit thumb(pp w768 h511) - Sarah + Nic | Schenley Park Cafe Wedding Photos

One of my favorite parts of any wedding I get to photograph is being able to sneak the bride & groom away for a few last portraits.  I love these next two…AVP 11 07 AVP SarahNicWedding 2041 thumb(pp w768 h512) - Sarah + Nic | Schenley Park Cafe Wedding Photos
