I am really excited to post these photos! Lisa and Stephen are really special people to me, as Lisa started out as a colleague and Milla C. Photography team member and has over time developed into a good friend. I first met Stephen about 5 minutes after meeting Lisa when he ran by a job...
When Maggie and Patrick first met with me to talk about their wedding plans, one of the first things that we discussed was what type of photos they could expect in March in Pittsburgh. We talked about how much I love snowy wedding photos and how we just have to be flexible and willing to...
This is one of my favorites from Elyssa and Matt’s beautiful Omni William Penn Wedding. There is absolutely nothing as fun and exciting as the Jewish Horah celebration, and Elyssa’s face says it all in this photo: pure joy.
When someone says they are a wedding photojournalist, what does that actually mean? If you have interviewed photographers lately, you have probably heard this word used over and over, accompanied by other words such as “candid” “unobtrusive” and “real.” But, for those of us who haven’t ever worked for a newspaper, who haven’t been sent...
I love non-traditional bridal portraits, those that are the most natural, unposed, those taken when the bride doesn’t even know I’m taking them. In this portrait, Joanna had just put on her dress and veil and was getting everything situated with the help of her bridesmaids. I love the way the light wraps around her...
They couldn’t have hugged any tighter. A sweet moment after Melissa’s mother-daughter dance.
This photo was taken in the tiny little bride’s room in Heinz Chapel. Julia’s dress was hanging on the mirror and she was getting ready with her bridesmaids in the background. I was waiting, hoping to catch a glimpse of her in the mirror when she leaned over to grab something out of her bag...
This one has been on the blog before but I am posting it again because it’s one of my all-time favorites. Ashley… either your makeup process was very boring or facebook was very interesting! :)
Christy and Jared had a beautiful New Year wedding at Pittsburgh’s Grand Hall at the Priory. These two are neighbors and friends as well as clients, so it was especially meaningful for us to be part of the celebration. Special thanks to Mary Schwarz from Birchtree Photography. Mary is a friend and colleague who assisted...
Stephanie’s father’s speech was incredibly sweet and emotional, and if you look closely, you’ll notice that he isn’t the only one with tears in his eyes.
Sometimes the only one who has to stay home from the wedding is the very one who means the most to you. Here, Christy tells Josie goodbye as she heads out the front door for her wedding at the Priory.
Today I have been looking back through the images from last year, reflecting on the work that we produced. And, I was struck by how many amazing clients we worked with, how many beautiful/fun/hilarious/sweet/meaningful images we captured, how many wonderful wedding stories we told through photography, and how fortunate we are to have this wonderful...
I am so excited to post one of my favorite weddings from last year – Anne and JT’s beautiful Heinz Chapel wedding and Duquesne Club reception. Anne and JT’s wedding was elegant, classy, and FUN! Their family and friends were wonderful to be around, and we thoroughly enjoyed being part of the celebration. Thanks Anne...
Hello again, sweet blog! I am pumped to once again be back on the wonderful blog. Brad and I have been enjoying sharing photos and telling stories on our business facebook page instead of the blog recently, but I don’t want to forget about her completely! So, over the next few weeks, I am going...
Shannon and Chris had a beautiful Syrian Orthodox Wedding at St. George Orthodox Church followed by an elegant reception at the Hilton at Southpointe! Brad and I loved being part of this day for so many reasons – the people, the cultures, the amazing FOOD, the music, the tradition, and the belly dancer! Yes, that’s...
