North Shore & Mt. Washington Engagement | Lily & Kevin
When your clients are ballroom dancers, you get extra epic photos with many, many lifts. Also, can I just say that I love this combination of locations? Allegheny Commons Park always gets the best light, and then we ended with classic Pittsburgh spots to grab that beautiful skyline. Sometimes it is great to be a photographer in PIttsburgh!
Riverfront & North Shore Engagements | Emily & Matthew
Aspinwall Riverfront Park is such a cool blend of nature and industrial. Add some winter weather vibes, and you have Emily & Matthew’s engagement session! It was a chilly day for photo, but well worth it to get that pop of snow and light in the background.
Can you believe she made it through a two hour shoot with those shoes? That is mad bravery.
I’m especially thrilled with how their night shots up on Mt. Washington came out. With the leaves being off the trees, you really get a great view of the city lights.
Mt. Washington & The Point Engagement Session | Whitney & Ian
Mt. Washington & The Point Engagement Session | Whitney & Ian
What better way to start a photoshoot than a picnic and champagne in the back of a pickup overlooking the city skyline! After enjoying a glass (or two), we headed down to grab some epic shots at Smithfield Street bridge, before wrapping things up at the Point.
North Shore Senior Session | Annie
Annie was a blast to work with. She loves musical theater, so the first thing we did was head into the city and the cultural district for some photos by the Benedum. It was a gorgeous sunny day, and we enjoyed it; going everywhere from the North Shore to up on Mt. Washington - with lots of pictures along the way!
St Mary of the Mount & Sheraton at Station Square Wedding | Erika & Kevin
Oh my gosh. These two. This day was so much fun. Everyone in their family was a joy to be around. You’ll be able to tell when you see these reception photos. The dance floor was lit!
For their photos, we went to Emerald View Park on Mt. Washington. It is just a little spot, but I love this view of the city. We were able to really capture Pittsburgh in their photos.
North Shore Engagement Session | Juliette and Gregg
Juliette & Gregg were just the sweetest. I loved exploring the North Shore & the Point with them. We came thisssss close to getting a parking ticket while we were at the Point, but luck was in our favor! After the Point, we drove up to Mt. Washington so that we could capture the magic of the city at night.
Heinz Chapel & Lemont Wedding | Ashleigh & Adam
What a gorgeous day for a wedding! Ashleigh & Adam got ready at their home (he was downstairs, she was on the first floor) and they drove together to there ceremony. He had to wear a blindfold so that he didn’t catch a glimpse of her in the dress too early! The ceremony took place at Heinz Chapel, and then we drove around the city for their portraits, stopping at the columns, Mellon Park, and (of course) Mt. Washington.
Nikki & Phil | A Pittsburgh Engagement Session
When it came time for Nikki & Phil's engagement shoot, we had to call and reschedule due to rain and thunderstorms. The next go around, it looked like rain again! This time we decided to chance it, and met in Market Square downtown. Of course it poured on us, but we made the most of it, and captured some amazing shots. By the time we headed to Mt. Washington, the sun had come out.
