PPG Wintergarden Wedding | Nikki & Lucas

Nikki & Lucas had one of the best portrait locations - the convention center! We lucked out that Lucas had a connection to get us roof access for one of the best city views in Pittsburgh.

After their portraits around town, we headed to PPG Wintergarden for their ceremony and reception. PPG Wintergarden is a gorgeous, modern space that is always a pleasure to photograph. You just can’t beat the all glass walls and that classic black & white flooring!

Phipps Wedding | Lily & Kevin

Lily and Kevin had a gorgeous day at Phipps in Oakland. You may remember these two from their ballroom dance engagement session this summer. Their wedding photos turned out gorgeous! They did a private first look, so we did all their portraits before the wedding, meaning they were able to just join the cocktail hour and party right after the ceremony, no stress! It was so fun to be a part of.

When we have access to the Phipps outdoor gardens, I swoon. It is amazing, especially during the summer. Full of blooms and (if we’re lucky) sunlight, it is the perfect background for senior portraits. After we got our fill of flowers, we headed to the North Shore for some city skyline views.

Cori absolutely rocked her senior portraits! We had such gorgeous weather, and it made it all the more fun. We started out the session at Mellon Park, which is timeless for a garden style. Of course we had to pop by Phipps to finish things up. Their entrance florals this year were incredible, definitely one of the best displays they’ve had.

Rainy Day Engagement Session | Marissa & Billy

There was a zero percent chance of rain on the day of Marissa & Billy’s session, but that didn’t stop the rain from happening anyway. It absolutely poured the second half of their shoot. Luckily, these two were down to adventure and they went out and danced in the rain. We got completely soaked, and decided to finish their session a few days later. Well worth it!
