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!

A beautiful day on the golf course is exactly what these two lovebirds got for their wedding! It was the best weather, accented with gorgeous florals, and a raging dance floor. Personally, I still am obsessed with how Ashley’s gown sparkled!

Pennsylvanian Wedding | Alicia & Joey

I’ve been obsessed with The Pennsylvanian for a long time. I adore the building. The rotunda is just my favorite bit of architecture in Pittsburgh. When Alicia and Joey reached out about their wedding (with one of my favorite planners!), I jumped at the chance. Their wedding was nothing short of epic, with perfectly coordinated details, multiple bands, and even a second line moment!

Heinz Chapel & Kingfly Spirits Wedding | Devan & Eric

Devan & Eric are two of the kindest people you will ever meet. You could just tell by the love their friends & family showed all day. Their photos were a celebration of family. This was the first time I photographed a wedding at Kingfly Spirits, and it was a really unique, industrial space. Plus everyone loves a disco ball! Of course, for their ceremony, they were at my favorite Pittsburgh chapel - Heinz Chapel!

Soldiers & Sailors Wedding | Marissa & Billy

Marissa & Billy had an incredible day with the best vendor team of all time. Every detail was just exquisite. Personally, I’m still obsessed with Marissa’s gloves - can we bring those back on the daily, because WOW!

Given that this day also had 50 mph winds that added a little bit of chaos and some extra spectacular veil drama, I’m impressed how well they hung in for portraits outside. The chill made it a little uncomfortable, but it was so worth it!
