China Town, Philadelphia [Travel Photography]

Posted by April Wise

A couple of years ago I went on a trip to Philadelphia for work. We attended a EMT conference but managed to take a bus tour of the city. Also early one morning I got up and explored the area around China Town with my trusty Nikon. Of all the cities I've visited for work this was by far my favorite. All of these images were shot on film and scanned from negatives, so forgive the quality.

Susannah & Vernell [San Luis Obispo Wedding Photography]

Posted by April Wise

Susannah and Vernell drove up from Rancho Cucamonga, CA. They had a very small wedding at the Abella Garden Inn Bed and Breakfast in Arroyo Grande. There were 10 people in attendance, including the me and Josh. We had such a great time at this wedding. Mike Taylor officiated and played a few tunes on his iPod after. Gina, the innkeeper, danced with the groom. She is such a funny character.

Lucrezia & Brent [San Luis Obispo Wedding Photography]

Posted by April Wise

This was my first wedding of the year. It came to me at the last minute. I wasn't expecting to do a wedding until May but this one was great. Lucrezia and Brent are such a great couple. They had a sunset wedding ceremony at the beach near the Cayucos pier. During the ceremony the couple washed each others feet. The reception was at the Lions Club adjacent to the beach. They had one of the messiest cake feedings in history. Lucrezia was relentless but Brent managed a comeback.
