2009 started off strong. The first wedding, my first Russian wedding, was nothing but great. One of the remarkable details is that I met the couple in December and they got married in March. Now, I’m not a big supporter of last minute planning, but I’m just so glad they hadn’t found anyone before December. The ceremony was held at a Congregation Beth Or and the reception at Golden Gates Restaurant both outside of Philadelphia. And as perfect as that day was the day after was even better – at least for me. They met us in Center City for their personal shoot and we kept them there as long as we could. And did I mention the videographer? I don’t know if it’s common knowledge but often videographers and photographers end up being competitors rather than creating a feeling of mutual respect realizing their goals are the same; to get what the couple wants. Well, this guy was NOT like that. He was not only professional but really helpful. Thanks Darrell. Here’s a slideshowof the event. Thanks Yan. Thanks Lynne. It was great!
