Winter Aviary Wedding | Alyssa & Christopher
Alyssa & Christopher’s wedding was my very first wedding back from maternity leave. And oh my goodness, what a way to kick off 2022! When you get to hang out with penguins, how can you go wrong. These two braved the cold for some gorgeous golden hour portraits, and then got married surrounded by birds, friends, and family. It was a joyous day. Also, still low-key obsessed with Alyssa’s dress. Love the ruffles.
Mellon Park & The North Shore Senior Portraits | Riley
I so love this combination of locations for portraits of all kinds. You get the best mix of old world architecture with the bricks and iron gates, then move to the fun, modern Pittsburgh skyline. We had great weather for Riley’s senior portrait session as well, so you can’t ask for anything more!
Homey Engagement Session | Brianne & Dave
I love an at-home engagement session. It is a great way to showcase your relationship, and your pets! As you can see, these two have many cats that joined in on the fun. Their home was entirely renovated by Dave as well, so appreciate all his hard work!
Heinz History Center Wedding | Eric & Brad
Eric & Brad had a beautiful wedding ceremony at Heinz HIstory Center. It was full of little details all about them. My personal favorites were the city neighborhood table names, and the lego details in the name cards and cake!
Cooks Forest Elopement | Crystal & Joe
Crystal & Joe changed their wedding plans to a small and private elopement up at Cooks Forest to avoid the big gathering and keep health and safety top-of-mind during the pandemic. Their portraits were filled with fun hikes through the woods, and their party was a ton of fun! We ended with one of the most epic cake smashes I’ve ever seen.
Energy Innovation Center Wedding | Beth & James
You may remember Beth & James from their magical Chicago engagement session from last year. Their golden retriever likes to steal the show a little, and that trend continued through their wedding! They had a bright and light ceremony at the Energy Innovation Center. Julie Renee Events pulled all the decor together and it turned out amazing!
The Highline & Downtown Pittsburgh Engagement Session | Marco & Becca
I am obsessed with Becca & Marco’s engagement session. They started out at the new and colorful Highline area in south side. I love the bold colorful walls and murals in the area. Plus there is a great view of the skyline.
Intimate Heinz Chapel Wedding | Maddie & Manny
Maddie & Manny had me there to capture their small wedding at Heinz Chapel, followed by running around Pittsburgh capturing their portraits. It was a fun day with lots of beautiful stops. You can’t go wrong with the Columns and Washington’s Landing!
