Megan & Tom are adorable -- so laidback and sweet. And the parasols....the peonies....the golf carts....and especially the hot dogs and popcorn they served at the end of the night -- absolutely fabulous. Reception took place at the lovely Towanda Country Club in Towanda, PA.

]]>Vacationhttp://www.tanialezakblog.com/journal/2009/6/27/vacation.htmlTania Lezak Photography2009-06-28T01:58:22ZAdventuresI'm back in Wilmington, hanging with a whole crew of family right now. We've been doing nothing but surfing, boating, swimming, playing, relaxing, and eating for the past 5 days -- and it is absolutely heavenly.

My real camera is all packed up and hasn't been unpacked once since I arrived, but I've been taking lots of silly point and shoot shots. Here are a bunch from the past few days....

]]>Traveling....again!http://www.tanialezakblog.com/journal/2009/6/16/travelingagain.htmlTania Lezak Photography2009-06-16T22:21:08ZAdventures WeddingsI'll be traveling for a wedding in Jamaica 6/16-6/22. Please feel free to email info@lezakphotography.com if you need to reach me -- I'll return messages when I get back on the 22nd.

Also, I'll do my best to update the blog while I'm gone, but you never know what kind of connection you'll get down in the Caribbean. Here's a fun shot from Alisa & Chris's wedding in St Maarten a few weeks ago to keep you going while I'm out....

Enjoy!

She's lovely. She's talented. She's hilarious. AND she brought me a whole box of deliciousness from Mr. Cupcakes. Oh. My. Goodness. Best cupcakes I have ever tasted in my life. I have officially declared her my new best friend. (If you are located near this place, please go in immediately and order yourself the french toast and/or birthday cake cupcakes. Be prepared to find yourself dangerously addicted. Feel free to thank me by sending me a box of cupcakes. I will accept.)

Stacey runs As You Wish Wedding & Event Design in New Jersey, and I've had the chance to see her fabulous work up close over the past few years working together at weddings -- she truly is a master at her art. But in addition to putting together tons of gorgeous weddings and events each year, she's also busy building up a whole new side to her business that is going to be really unique and exciting -- I can't wait to tell you more about it!

Her website for the new business will be launching soon, so she needed a few fun new headshots. I think we got 'em.

Here's a peek:

That's all for now. Back to the cupcakes I go.

I was actually just checking out the area, scoping out locations for Saturday when I decided that...since I was there, I should probably just ring the doorbell and say hello. What I didn't know was that the rehearsal dinner was taking place there in a few hours, and there were all kinds of fun rehearsal party things to shoot INSIDE of the house, nevermind all the gorgeous, fun scenery outside.

Good thing I had my camera.

The real reason for this entire p.s. post is this: the cake. The cake that you might not even know was a cake. This thing was a masterpiece of frostinged beachy fun. Check it:

Here's the mini Chris & Marisa up close. Yes, that really is a bikini & veil/trunks & bow tie. LOVE it.

Flowers, sunshine, and the ocean. You really couldn't ask for a prettier rehearsal dinner setting....

So. I was pretty happy I knocked on the door. :)

Such a cute, sweet couple. We hijacked their trolley to cruise around the Ocean City boardwalk for some shots between the ceremony and reception and laughed the entire time (yes, especially when the band of rogue pirates jumped into the frame). Words cannot do this day justice. Huge thanks to my rockstar photographer-friend and second shooter for the day, Rob Nicholson.

I am out of the studio shooting a wedding in St Maarten all this week. After that, I'll be heading straight to a vow renewal and several other shoots before I return to the studio on Tuesday, June 2nd! I love to hear from you all, though, and I'll make sure to respond to calls and emails asap when I get back on the 2nd.

Look forward to talking with you next week! (And here's a fun little treat from Marisa + Chris's wedding to make you happy while I'm gone....)
