"Protect them under the shadow of thy holy and honorable cross in peace" Nora & Jim



Nora & Jim were married on a frigid, but clear & beautiful day in an Orthodox Armenian ceremony. Before the church service, along with an ample size handsome bridal party we got to ride the trolley, sing and dance, and visit a couple of sites in Philadelphia to take photos.. Fun & quite a wild reception took place at:
Cescaphe Ballroom

Last but not least: I was joined by amazing Nadine Rovner,who captured many gorgeous images!

Nora + Jim, all the best- thank you for allowing us to document your gorgeous wedding!

Italian Passion, por favor! Barcelona engagement session ...



When Sonia & Daniele met they did not speak each other's language. Daniele, a native of Venice, Italy was vacationing on a Spanish coast, and happen to sit next to Sonia (who lived in Spain) and her friends at a seaside bar. Long story short- a couple of years later they are madly in love & inhabit a beautiful apartment in the heart of Barcelona, where I got to stay and enjoy Sonia's amazing hospitality & Daniele's Italian cooking!!Me (Monika) & my fantastic friends, a top European photography duo Monika and Konrad Wasylewscy got to shoot Sonia & Daniele's engagement session.. Images from Wasylewscy and me (Monika) follow...
