Why Hotel Du Pont is a Top Wedding Venue in DE: Over the last 18 years of shooting weddings, there have been few venues that have impressed me more than Hotel Du Pont. Every wedding I have at Hotel Du Pont is classy and unique in it's own way. The hotel itself is stunning. The service is on point. And no matter what season it is, you know your guests are going to have an exceptional experience.
Venues that have luxury suites, dedicated ceremony, cocktail hour and reception spaces and easy accessibility for all make themselves and easy choice for the most astute couples who are planning their stress free but elegant wedding.

Full Day Coverage
No need to Worry about missing a moment
I know that every time my wife or I feel stressed out, it’s a great idea to just stop, relax and take stock. This is never more true than when planning a wedding. My advice (having worked in the industry for many years and planned my own wedding) is to take some time to get your wedding priorities straight. What is important to you may not be as important to someone else. Figure out what you care most about and then go from there. For most of our couples, that means finding the perfect venue then finding the right photographer to capture it all.

Nathan’s philosophy
kind words
We worked with Nathan for our fall wedding. We cannot recommend him enough. The beautiful, stunning images you see on his page are what you’re going to get. It's not a matter of just a few good pictures, you're going to love them all.
Nathan is so easy and fun to work with. He helped us organize to ensure the shots we wanted were covered and used the beauty of the venue to create impressive shots beyond what we envisioned. Somehow he managed to get so many beautiful photos without us feeling rushed, staged, or taking away from enjoying the day.

frequently asked questions
How long have you been shooting weddings?
We have been shooting weddings since 2007 and have hundreds of them under our belt. We’ve worked at Hotel Du Pont Several times along with countless other venues in Lancaster and Philadelphia, in every season, weather, lighting, and size. We've seen it all!
Can I give you a list of shots that I want on my wedding day?
You can. However, we've found that it is best to just share images with us that are non-standard, or ones we wouldn't have known about had you not told us. Don't worry, we'll be sure to capture family pictures, your first kiss, and all of the "normal" stuff. Leading up to the wedding, we'll send you a questionnaire to fill out and then jump on a call with you to go over all of the important details.
Do you bring back-up equipment to every shoot?
We do. We have extra batteries, memory cards, lenses, and cameras. We're never going to be careless on someone's wedding day!
Do you travel?
We love to travel and experience new places. If your wedding is within 100 miles (round trip) of our studio, there are no extra fees. If it is further away, we'd be happy to give you a custom quote to cover nominal travel expenses. There are no travel fees for Hotel Du Pont Weddings.
Are the images we see edited?
All of the final images we post (usually between 850-1250) are color-corrected, cropped, and ready for printing. If you like the work you see on our website, you'll love your own images! Editing styles/filters come and go over time, but one of the consistent things we hear from our couples is that they love our timeless style while remaining vibrant, bold and authentic!
Please shoot our wedding! How do we book you?
