Do you like to have fun? We do, especially with our photos. We wanted something a little different than the average blog out there, so along with our super talented Blog designer we came up with a Favorites section - or "Wiebner Faves" as we like to call it. What is it you ask? more »
Well, under each photo, you will see a "Vote for Favorite" box. If you really like that image, if it tickles your fancy, or makes you laugh, or just plain old makes you smile - go ahead - check it. We know you want to. Each time that box is clicked on a photo, it adds to the running tally for that image. The top 14 favorite images on the entire blog will be shown as thumbnails in this section. Just so you can see the most popular images of all time on the blog. A little something out of the ordinary - it never hurts to be different!
Also, blog posts can be favorites. Now that we have comments available, you will see a little bar meter at the bottom left of each post. Once the meter hits a certain number of comments, its automatically promoted to a "Wiebner Fave Post". :) Something else just for fun!

I find it incredibly difficult to write about us when put on "The Spot". "I need a 500 word bio about you and Joel, now!" Who can do that? How do you make your own personality shine in a few words, let alone that of two people? Well, I am going to give it my best shot. If you really want to know about US - who we really are - read the blog below. We really try to keep it updated as often as possible, and hope that our fun, casual personalities shine through in the words you read and the images we capture for our clients. The blog below is our way of communicating our lives - both personal and professional - with clients, friends, family and colleagues. We believe strongly in using words and images together to communicate our passion.
I am going to keep this short and sweet - Joel and I were meant to be together - to live, love and be happy making photographs. We were both photographers before we met over 9 years ago - we met behind a camera, and continue to feed off of that energy. We are a rock solid husband and wife team and we wouldn't want it any other way - we work together 24/7 and never tire of each other. We have had our business since November 2000, and have thrived on photographing weddings as our main photography genre since 2002. We love what we do. We like to think we look at the world in our own way - not photojournalistically, not traditionally, not artistically. Just as a Wiebner. If you like what we see, then you will like us too. Oh and don't forget to comment in the blog on our two little darlings - Haydn and Zane - they are pretty darn cute little Wiebners. Enjoy! - Rita
Hands down, Molly and Adam's wedding on June 12th had some of the best details we have seen at a wedding in awhile. The entire day (except for getting ready) was held at Burnside Plantation in Bethlehem, PA. Gorgeous place! So much character. Molly and Adam just oozed love and good old fashioned charm. They are such a sweet couple! And Molly sure was something, she just cried at the drop of a hat! :) Well not really, but she was very emotional during the ceremony, and she had a right to be. It was one of the nicest ceremonies; they had two of their close friends conducting the ceremony (with just the local JP doing the actual marrying part) - and it was really something. You will see a lot of photos of it below.
Another super rad thing about the ceremony, was the actual "staging" area of the ceremony. Adam and his dad built it from scratch! It is so totally cool, and you can tell they put a ton of hard work into it. I think I recall that they said they were there for nearly 12 hours assembling it 2 days before the wedding. (Adam and Molly live in Massachusetts, so they had to bring it down to PA in pieces.) What dedication and talent! Photo of that is below too. As for all of the other details, there are just so many to mention here, you will have to look below. We had too many photos for the blog post, so we made up some detail collages below.
I really could ramble on about this wedding, but I would be writing all day, so I'll post some good snippets throughout the photos below!

Adam, showing off his brown and pink. Pink tie, boutonniere, handkerchief AND socks. It takes a real man to wear that much pink! I think Adam has it! :)

Molly's beautiful bouquet, the table decorations (Which were all antique and vintage tins filled with flowers - Molly said they spent endless weekends scouring flea markets and antique stores for them!), the fabric banners on the wood fences (all sewn by hand by Adam's mom!) and an interior shot of the tent where the reception was held.

Wedding programs, lots of yellow bridesmaids flowers, the trolley arriving (Hooray!) and the placecards for the guests - hanging on min-clotheslines on one side of the barn. So creative!

Here you can see the platform that Adam built. This entire set was constructed by him for the ceremony. We also made sure to use it for some of the portraits!
