Philadelphia Glen Foerd Mansion Wedding Photography: Sharon & Andrew

Sharon and Andrew had two beautiful wedding ceremonies (American & Korean) held at the gorgeous Glen Foerd Mansion on the Delaware River in Philadelphia.  Sharon’s taste was elegant & fun: from her Reem Acra dress  right down to her fabulous bright blue peep-toe shoes.   They served sushi, had a Sopranos-themed bridal party formal in the Rathskellar and  even sent each guest home with little LEGO people created in their likeness.  Enjoy!

From the moment I saw Carlos Rodriguez touch Sharon’s hair I could tell he was an exceptional stylist, located in the beautiful Phoenix Salon & Spa adjacent to “love park,” he has been rated “Top stylist in Philadelphia,” and Phoenix is consistently rated among the top 5 salons in the city–  fab 😉

Looking through the mini-cards from their engagement shoot that Rhinehart Photography provided for her guests.

Wanting to make sure Sharon had her “something blue,” her sister brought the blue beaded pin that Sharon had given to her on her wedding day.   No worries though, Sharon had the blue totally covered with these adorable satin pumps:

This grand stair provided the perfect location for their “first look.”  I love her sister’s excitement in the background of this shot:

    I enjoyed every moment doing the hair and I must say Lisa Rhinehart
    Photographer has capture the pure essence of a wedding. The bride the groom and the entire day can be experienced through her eye behind the lens as If you were a guest at the wedding . I’ve seen hundreds of brides on there day but never have I seen wedding photos that execute the mastery of such elegance ,style and true love like Lisa Rhinehart has done .

  2. Dunno what to say. Saw the shoe shot and I was like “gotta tell her how awesome that is” … then I saw the groom looking out the window… and then I realized that this whole thing was totally coated in win. What a gorgeous, adorable couple… the legos related to interests idea is out of this world. Congratulations to the bride and groom!
