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!

Laura & Charlie | Simmons Farms | Pittsburgh Photographer

Laura and I have worked together quite a few times.  Sometimes, as photographers, we forget to get in front of the camera to capture our own lives.  For me, I take tons of pictures of my husband and my cats, but I'm not usually in the pictures with them!  So at least once a year (or more!) Laura and I trade sessions to capture images of us with our families. 

This year, Laura wanted a Mommy & Me session out at Simmons Farm.  It was my first time shooting there, and it was a great experience!  They have beautiful grounds and it made for the perfect setting.

Check out their shoot!

Sarah told me that they wanted to just have fun for their engagements, so we frolicked through the tall grasses in Schenley Park. 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.
