The Grand Estate Wedding | Jamie & Ben

I wasn’t the original wedding photographer for Jamie & Ben’s big day, but their photographer ended up in labor a few weeks early, so I stepped in to cover. It ended up being an incredible day, filled with family and friends celebrating in the best way. The Grand Estate is one of my favorite venues, and it was so nice to work there again!

The best photos always happen when you’re willing to act silly and just go with the flow. We ended their session at Mellon Park, which is timeless for a Pittsburgh engagement.
