Clearly, one of the sweetest links I've ever come across.

wedding photography

Silverbox ventured into wedding photography this weekend. A special thanks to my brother in law, John Sidoriak, Jr, for shooting with me throughout the day and a huge thank you to a wonderful mentor, Kevin York, for guiding me throughout the process.

It's been such a special treat to design the invitations, programs, etc and then actually take the photos for the big day. I cannot thank this family enough for their love from beginning to end.

sisterhood

Sisterhood is many things. It's a warm smile on a cold and rainy day, a friendly hug, a cheerful hello... It's all that a good and lasting friendship is, only better. It's treasured. It's sacred. It's knowing that there will always be someone there for you. It's dreams shared, and goals achieved. It's counting on others and being counted on. It is real.

Ok, it's Friday and finally time to get "Bizzie" for some down time. It's been so hot, so if you're in the Philadelphia area, and interested in the best ice cream you've ever eaten, take a trip and visit Custard and Cakes Creamery. It's the best, hands-down!

Whether you're local or not, take my word for it and vote for this wonderful family-run business for Philadelphia's best Ice Cream Shop.

a fabulous find

I came across a site today that will be added to my favorites. Take a look at all the goodies at www.oliveandcocoa.com. Look what I found...(hint, hint)

Allons à Paris! Even if your French is a little more "Clouseau" than "Bardot" they will definitely accept your invitation when they receive the charming Let's Go to Paris! crate. Complete with "Yours and Mine" passport holders, a Paris travel notebook, and four French macaron cookies gift wrapped in a hand crafted wood crate with ribbon, all you need to add are the tickets!
