Merchant Exchange Building Philadelphia Elopement | Erwin + Danny

elopement, Merchant Exchange Building, queer wedding, Philadelphia

Erwin and Danny met in high school orchestra—Danny was a violinist and Erwin was a double-bassist. They shared how much they like that the other person is the stark opposite. The marriers enjoy going to the symphony, playing Mario Kart, adventuring together, watching TikToks, and sharing music.

After ten years of being together, they got engaged and had a self-uniting Quaker wedding with their parents present. After their elopement, we took photos together at Merchant Exchange Building, 18th Century Garden, Benjamin Rush Garden, Dock Creek, and one of our favorite murals in Philadelphia. If you’re looking to get wedding photos taken at any of those locations (minus the colorful mural), don’t forget to get a permit!

One of my favorite things is walking around during a weekday Philadelphia elopement when the city is quiet and there’s so much stillness and gratitude floating about. Thanks to the marriers for braving the cold and trusting me to document their post-elopement excitement.
