A Renaissance Pittsburgh Reception: Mary and Brent
A private ceremony, followed by an intimate cocktail reception at the Renaissance Pittsburgh Hotel on a snowy evening? Perfect. Congratulations to Mary and Brent!
North Shore Engagement: Gracie and Corey
Gracie and Corey are getting married next June! I have known these two since we were kids, and I couldn’t be happier for them. They had a perfect evening for an engagement session on the north shore.
Frick Park Senior Session: Madison
Frick Park is always gorgeous and quiet in the morning! Madison picked a great spot for her senior portraits. She is such a beautiful and fun woman, and I wish her the best with college picks in the upcoming months!
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!
Rodanthe, North Carolina
My final trip of 2017 is so close to my heart. This is our final family vacation as the three of us, before our little girl joins us in a few weeks. We rented a house in The Outer Banks with my husband’s side of the family and had a wonderful time. My beautiful, but incredibly cautious little guy was not very keen on the wild ocean. However, he loved playing monster trucks in the sand and swimming in the pool with his Aunt Lauren. Here are a bunch of shots of a few of the people I love the most.

Summer Mini Sessions at Simmons Farm (Part 2)
The second round of mini sessions was great! We beat the rain by just a couple of minutes and the kiddos did so great. Here are four more adorable families on a beautiful farm! A special thanks to Simmon’s Farm for letting us enjoy their beautiful property.
Summer Mini Sessions at Simmons Farm (Part 1)
Just wrapped up edits from the first evening of summer mini sessions and had to share a few of my favorites! Look how adorable these four families are <3 We had a great time on this beautiful summer evening at Simmons Farm. More to follow from the second evening!
A Frick Park Engagement: Ariana and Grant
Ariana and Grant are one of those incredible stories about being together since you were kids. Seriously, not even high school sweethearts…middle school sweethearts! They have stood the test of time AND distance (Pennsylvania to Michigan!). They love one another so much, and it shows. I wish them the very, very best in 2017 and to have the most beautiful wedding day in Michigan. <3
North Side Engagement Session: Katelyn and Chris
It’s no secret that the Mexican War Streets in the North Side of Pittsburgh is my absolute favorite neighborhood. So when Katelyn and Chris mentioned that they also love this area and that they wanted their engagement portraits here, I was over the moon! We started at Commonplace Coffee on Buena Vista and started walking from there. (BTW, this cafe is not only adorable, but they were so kind to let us use their space for a few shots. Check this place out!). Katelyn and Chris are tying the knot next August at Soldiers and Sailors in Oakland! Hooray for 2017!
