Mt. Washington Engagement: Jen and Chris

Jen and Chris are scheduled to be the first wedding of 2018! I was thrilled when they were referred to me by another beloved bride of mine, and I can’t wait to capture their big day. We spent a weeknight strolling around their neighborhood and even made a quick stop in one of their favorite bars for their engagement session. I can’t wait for February!

A Highland Park Portrait Session: Meg and John

It is always so flattering for a fellow photographer to ask you to take their family photos. Meg and John met me out in Highland Park on a chilly afternoon in December with their pup for portraits. Here are a few of my favorites! (To be honest, it’s more than a few. I had a hard time picking favorites, lol)

Peters Lake Park: 2016 Mini Sessions (Part 2)

If you look closely, you can see the first little snowflakes for the season in these mini sessions! Burnt orange leaves on the ground, with winter sneaking in. I wrapped up my 2016 mini sessions with these three adorable families on a chilly Sunday by the lake. Lots of fun photos and warming up with snuggle photos. 🙂

Duckstein Family Session, Fall 2016

This family session means so much for so many reasons. I have watched these kiddos grow so much over the past 4 years, from adorable babies to awesome children. They have such an amazing and fun energy, that I always forget I am working! In addition, one of the family pups passed away less than a week after our session. My heart breaks for this beautiful family, but I am so glad I was with them to snap a few shots. I know Nayah is in puppy heaven, having a ball. <3 XOXO2016-11-21_0001.jpg 2016-11-21_0002.jpg2016-11-21_0003.jpg2016-11-21_0004.jpg2016-11-21_0005.jpg


Sheraton Station Square Wedding: Andrea and Cody

It is so evident in these photos that this group was so much fun! Andrea and Cody were so relaxed and easy going on their special day. They absolutely love their family, friends, alma mater, and PITTSBURGH! They tied the knot at Heinz Chapel in Oakland and had a beautiful Pittsburgh themed reception at the Sheraton Pittsburgh Station Square. There were even terrible towel cookies (and jorts, lol!). Congratulations!

Thank you Michael Daugherty for assisting!! We had a great year!

It’s a busy time for this family! They are celebrating a 4th birthday, 6 month birthday AND getting ready for the holidays! We had to take a break in the leaves at the end because these kiddos did a fantastic job.
