Strip District and North Shore Senior Portraits | Gino
Gino had a great session in a couple of different locations. My personal favorite was the private basketball court we got to use on top of the old Kaufmann’s building downtown. I’m a little sad I can’t use it on a regular basis. Anyone else have some epic rooftop views to share?
Twelve Oaks Mansion Wedding | Taylor & Curt
Taylor was all about the details during her wedding! She surprised me with having matching elements to her details all ready for me on-site when I arrived. It allowed us to create these magical flat-lays of the wedding pieces.
Longue Vue Country Club Wedding | Huijun and Matthew
This intimate and beautiful wedding was so fun to capture. There was a threat of rain all day long, and we were actually able to even capture a brief thunderstorm in their portraits. Luckily, the rain cleared in time to have their perfect outdoor ceremony.
Washington’s Landing Engagement Session | Lauren & Tim
You all know that I love a classic Pittsburgh engagement session. There is just no better city for skyline views and that great mix of nature. We started Tim & Lauren’s session on Washington’s Landing to get that perfect mix. The skyline view from the end of the island is one of my favorites in the city. Then we headed down to the North Shore to wrap things up with yellow bridges and riverfront views.
Priory Wedding | Sarah & Dave
These two actually ended up getting married last year in a small, intimate wedding up on the overlook at Mt. Washington due to Covid. Wedding planning during a pandemic makes everything a little more challenging. They were excited to celebrate their vows with all their family and friends this year at the Priory.
Strip District Senior Portrait Session | Ethan
Ethan rocked his senior session. We ended up capturing his senior portraits during golden hour, and mixed things up with some smoke bombs in the warehouse district. Pittsburgh is a great place to get those fun, gritty backgrounds.
Mellon Park Senior Portraits | Isabel
Summertime is a great option for senior portraits. Especially when we start around that perfect golden hour, we get portrait magic like Isabel’s session. We started her session at the popular Mellon Park location in Shadyside, then headed down to Oakland to wrap things up at Phipps.
Assumption Church and Phipps Conservatory Wedding | Christa and Martin
Christa and Martin had to have their original wedding plans postponed due to Covid, so they were READY to celebrate this year. It was worth the wait for this beautiful celebration between these two families. We started the day with getting ready at Christa’s parent’s house, which was nice and close to the church. For portraits, the wedding party headed up to Emerald View Park for some skyline views, and wrapped things up at their reception venue, Phipps.
