Testing... Testing.. Stand by for the Studio Photo Booth Premier!

I personally love change. I love taking on new projects and re-creating old ones, bringing traditions back to life. For those of you who are at least as old as me and well.. some a tad bit older, you may remember Friday nights at the local mall with your friends, waiting to see a movie, scoping out the guys or girls, and doing your best not to scare off the actual shoppers. One of my favorite things was the Photo Booth..cramming in two, three, seven of your closest friends to make four goofy faces and instantly having your memories to split between everyone instantly!

Here is our recreation courtesy of Jason, Scott, and Vinny's excellent craftsmanship! Coming to a weddings and events starting later this year is the Studio Photo Booth where you have the personalized touch of a friendly photographer snapping away pictures of you at your best dressed and for some, your most inebriated states! Here are a few results of today's practice session! Three lucky brides have been selected this year for a free studio photo booth to appear at their wedding! For those selected we'll be contacting you soon! MMP's studio photo booth will roll out in our new 2011 services starting September 1, 2010.

Lorie and Jim July 3, 2010

Classic love. Proof that marriage is a gift and extremely precious, however it's love that carries a couple through everything. Lorie and Jim are definitely an example of classic love, now formalizing their bond through vows. Lots of guests had smiles on their faces and sombrero's on their heads as this long awaited celebration carried out! MMP wishes the very best to the two of you!

Courtney and Tom

What a day! Beautiful skies..fantastic location..90+ degrees.. and 3 photographers dressed all in black! Thankfully we had a fantastic couple who was extremely easy to work with, shade, and a nice breeze! Courtney and Tom were married just outside of the PA border at a gorgeous pond that looked more like pool water than the normal cloudy, algea filled, mosquito pits we have in the area. Surrounded by their wonderful families they exchanged their vows to each other and then surprised everyone by taking a dip of the pier! A photographers dream! Ladies.. I'm happy to shoot any dress trashing desired:) Congrats to the fantastic couple!

Erica and Bo

All couples desire a fun filled wedding, where the atmosphere is warm and inviting, the food is fantastic, and the guests get absolutely crazy on the dance floor! This was one wedding that will go down in MMP history as an incredibly awesome event! Erica and Bo held a magnificent event that many of their guests, ourselves included, will hold high and remember fondly! One of the best creations brought to life was the excellent lighting provided by their DJ, Burning Spear Entertainment. Erica and Bo were also full of zest and kept all of us on our toes with their sparking personalities and bright smiles! Congratulations Erica and Bo!

Lindsay and Matt

Kicking off the 2010 wedding season we were ecstatic to be a part of Lindsay and Matt's wedding day! Despite all the cuts and bruises from a guest falling and another cutting into his finger rather than a piece of ribbon, everyone was in high spirits! Best wishes to the fantastic couple!

Baby Bella

Miss Bella has been one of MMP's first carry over maternity shoots to where we had the pleasure of photographing a very pregnant mommy and then a few short months later, the lovely Bella herself! One of the greatest things in life is a child's laughter and smile! Such a little heart warmer! Enjoy!

Nicole and Don Engagement Shoot

I know, being married myself, that many men really aren't that much of a fan of the whole engagement shoot prospect, dealing with someone who you barely know who is in your face for upwards of an hour or two telling you to smile...smile wider.. no teeth.. less teeth. What a pain in the butt! Thankfully here at MMP we attempt to make an engagement shoot as painless as possible for everyone involved and will never tell you to smile!

We met up with Nicole and Don, a fantastically compatable couple, at Italian Lake then on to Fort Hunter for a special engagement shoot. Their engagement shoot was gifted on behalf of Jason and Myself and the wonderful husband and wife team, Coleman Videography- Ben and Heather Coleman also of Harrisburg. Coleman Videography was collaborating a Love Story video for the couple along side MMP for still engagement photos!

The end result was nothing short of spectacular, especially from our wonderful friends at Coleman Videography! Nicole and Don had a blast with both teams to the joy of hearing from Don "This was Cool! I can't wait for you guys to shoot our wedding!"

That my friends.. is what makes this whole business worth everything we put into it!
