Hi! I'm Kristin Ardese, a True-to-color New Jersey Wedding photographer
Toni and Drew’s August 2026 wedding at the Camden County Boathouse in Pennsauken Township, New Jersey was colorful, fun, and full of personality. Their bright orange, pink, and blue color palette, mixed with soft pastel tones, complemented the venue beautifully, especially its pastel orange exterior.
GETTING READY
The day began with Toni and her girls getting ready at the boathouse while Drew prepared at home before joining everyone at the venue. I loved capturing the colorful details and little moments of anticipation as everyone got ready for the day ahead.
FIRST LOOK & WATERFRONT CEREMONY
Toni and Drew’s first look took place on the pier overlooking the Cooper River Lake. The waterfront setting gave us a beautiful backdrop for their portraits before their outdoor ceremony.
The ceremony itself overlooked the lake, creating a relaxed and scenic setting for their vows. With the colorful florals and surrounding waterfront, every part of the day felt bright and summery.
COLORFUL DETAILS & RECEPTION
As a true-to-color NJ wedding photographer, I loved photographing all of the vibrant details throughout the day. The combination of orange, pink, blue, and pastel tones photographed beautifully while staying true to the overall feel of the wedding.
The reception was just as lively as the rest of the day, with Toni, Drew, and their guests spending plenty of time on the dance floor. We also stepped outside for evening portraits on the balcony overlooking Philadelphia, giving the couple a completely different backdrop to end their portraits.
Toni and Drew’s Camden County Boathouse wedding was a perfect example of a colorful summer celebration with beautiful waterfront views and plenty of genuine moments.
