A Wedding at the Priory Pittsburgh | Laura & Keith
A Tale of Love and Joy: Laura & Keith's Priory Wedding in Pittsburgh
In the heart of Pittsburgh, amidst the rich history and timeless charm, Laura & Keith embarked on a journey of love and commitment at the enchanting Priory. As a Pittsburgh wedding photographer, I had the honor of capturing every moment of their special day, from the tender exchanges of vows to the lively celebrations that followed. Join me as we recount the magic of Laura & Keith's wedding day, set against the backdrop of one of Pittsburgh's most iconic venues.

Phipps Wedding | Laurel & Joe
What do you do when you have a 4.5 hour break between your ceremony and your reception? Have an epic photoshoot all across Pittsburgh and stop for tacos! This was my first wedding with a snack break built into the timeline, and I have to say, it was pretty awesome! Thanks to Bakersfield downtown for letting the wedding party use the basement for a private dining space!
Mellon Park & The Museum Senior Portraits | Bernie
Mellon Park & The Museum Senior Portraits | Bernie
Bernie absolutely slayed his senior portraits. He models high-fashion currently, so senior portraits were a great opportunity to take photos that focused more on himself and his personal style. I had to keep reminding him that he is allowed (and encouraged!) to smile and laugh during the session. We started out at Mellon Park for a floral give, then headed into Oakland for a quick stop at Phipps and the museum exterior.

I love repeat clients! I got to meet Anjali during her brother’s senior portrait session, and it was so nice to see her again for her portraits. We went to my favorite floral spots in the city, Mellon Park and Phipps. You just can’t beat the florals in the summer time! I offer discounted rates for weekday day time sessions, and the other perk that comes with that is the Phipps public garden is open!

Allegheny Commons Park Family Portraits | The Croyles
Allegheny Commons is one of my favorite parks near the city! It always has the best light, and is a great background for any kind of portrait. My friends the Croyles popped down on a weekday to sneak in some family portraits before work, and they turned out so perfectly. Bringing some bubbles always helps engage the kiddos!
Mansions on Fifth & The Highline Senior Portraits | Reese

Highlighting your personal style is a big part of what senior portraits should be, and Reese certainly brought it! I loved the combinations of her fashion and the locations we chose. Mansions on Fifth really stood out to me for bringing in those dark wood tones and unique architectural elements. What do you think!?

I photographed Brianne & David’s wedding back in 2022, so I was so excited to get a phone call that they were about to be parents! They had a beautiful baby boy, and we photographed a lifestyle session in their home to capture the moment.
