Stretch your wedding investment by getting more bang for your buck!

Mom doing her best Rocky

If you are planning an event in the Philadelphia area, I'm going to share a way you can get more for your money while doing something important and good! 

Fairmont Park's historic Ridgeland Mansion is a wonderful venue for any event. It's versatility makes it ideal for intimate gatherings and 500 people galas alike. TLC's Four Weddings called it, "The perfect space for a romantic wedding," so what more could you ask for? 

How about a tax deduction!!!! 

Ridgeland is also the home of the Cancer Support Community of Greater Philadelphia and 100% of the proceeds support their wonderful programs that positively impact the lives of men, women, and children in our area. Because of this, a significant portion of what you pay is tax deductible! You get a great venue, get to feel good about helping others, and you get something back when all is said and done! 

And like they say on TV, "BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!"

In honor of my mom, who despite her fighting spirit lost a hard fought battle with cancer, and my step-mom who has beaten cancer(twice!!!) I will be donating 10% of my fees from events I photograph at Ridgeland back to the Cancer Support Community of Greater Philadelphia as well.

Visit their RENTALS page for more information.

I'm Tom Clarke, and I support this message.

Alexis+Joe's South Philly Wedding.

Alexis and Joe: February 17, 2013

A few Sundays back I had the great pleasure of photographing the lovely wedding of Alexis and Joe at the Paradiso Restaurant on E. Passyunk in South Philadelphia. A few of these images were taken at The Hotel Monaco where Alexis got ready as well as a few along Passyunk of the guys just before the ceremony.  I think it's easy to see from these images that this is a happy crowd! Lots of smiling and joking, dancing, and cheering complete with New Year's Eve style noisemakers for everyone to blow into when prompted to show support for the happy couple! 

 They thought I'd left but I turned to ask a question and caught this moment :)

Wedding Pie!

Congratulations you two! The joy of your love and the love your friends and family have for you is evident all around you and certainly visible in these images.
