10.25.09 – Miss Brasil USA Philadelphia – 4-Points Sheraton – Philadelphia PA

forel — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 17:15:46 +0000

I was asked to photograph the Miss Brasil USA 2009 Philadelphia pageant this past Sunday. It was held at the 4-Points Sheraton on Rt 1 in the North East section of Philadelphia. There was a great turn out for this fabulous event and it was a great time. Mirella Teles and Lonnie Beck did a great job running the event. Lonnie is co-owner and administrator for Dragon Gym and Mirella, a Philadelphia University Business Administration student (2010) has been involved with the pageant for the past four years. This is her first year running this event, but did an excellent job selling the event out completely and has a lot of experience running parties and other events.

There was a samba performance by Brazil Productions with 4 of their beautiful dancers including a former Miss Brasil Philadelphia pageant winner from 2005 Janaisa Barbosa, along with Erica Saben, Alicia Nascimento and Chigosi Enigwe. Some of the judges were Henrique Rodrigues, Priscilla Costa, Nay Carvalho, Melissa Tarrao and Gabriela Brandt (Miss Brasil USA 2008).

This society raises money to help cure blood cancer by sponsoring fund raisers through out the year. I’m very excited and grateful to help out such a noble organization. Please help them in anyway you can. Here are some images from these events:

What a perfect day for a wedding. Anna & Lyon had everything in once place – the Inn at Chester Springs – how convient and worry free. They have a beautiful large outdoor patio for the ceremony lined with waterfalls, rose bushes and a gazebo. Adjacent to the patio is a large tent, where cocktails were served with the reception inside. Valerie Henry was their flower girl who performed a beautiful dance, sprinkled flowers up and down the isle. What beautiful and unique way. Here are some of my favorites:
