Jill and Todd – Settler’s Cabin Engagement Photos
I met Jill and Todd this past spring to talk about their wedding. Todd used to work with Danielle and they heard about me through her. Jill, Todd, and I arrived separately for the engagement photos at Settler’s Cabin Park in Robinson. First, I saw Todd in his dark gray Nissan Altima. A few minutes later, Jill arrived in her bright yellow VW Bug with sunflowers on the dash. I just thought the two cars fit their personalities perfectly, and they are adorable together. Jill said “I want these to be super cute. Let’s spell out ‘LOVE’ with our bodies.” We didn’t get a chance to do that, but this…

Erin and Dan – Pittsburgh’s Grand Hall at the Priory
Erin and Dan. Erin and I are relatives. Her mom and my dad are cousins. Erin saw me at a Christmas Party in 2008 and asked me to reserve her wedding date. Even though she was not engaged, she and Dan had been dating for a long time and were certainly on their way down the aisle. And down the aisle they went on Friday! Here are my faves from the day…. Blog followers may recognize them from the June engagement session at the Renaissance Hotel. You can’t fake this kind of happiness, nor did they need to. Erin looked gorgeous and those eyes are exploding right out of the…

Jacqui and Rich – Pittsburgh Anniversary Photographer
Earlier this summer, I was at a bridal shower for Laura when I heard some news about an old classmate, Jacqui. I went to High School with Jacqui and probably haven’t seen her since. Jacqui was diagnosed with Myelogenous Proliferative Disorder/Leukemia on 6/3/09. I immediately found her on Facebook and started to read her story. You can read about Jacqui’s story on her website hosted by CaringBridge.org. She is married to a wonderful man, Rich, who is kind and very supportive. I really felt like I couldn’t do much to help Jacqui, but I soon learned (through lots of comments posted on facebook) that she was a fan of my…

ShotBox
Hi everyone! ShotBox is something new that I’m offering for as an additional service for wedding receptions and events in 2010. ShotBox is a photographer controlled portable studio- AKA a super fun place to be! So here is the deal–I would set up the ShotBox for your reception starting at cocktail hour. A photographer is running the ShotBox and directing you and your guests to do really fun and creative things. Get in there for some fun portraits, large group shots, lots of dancing and getting crazy. ShotBox would be “closed” during dinner and major wedding events like your cake cutting, first dance, and etc. So the focus is still…

Julie Steinhaus Catering
For a few months, I’ve been helping chef/caterer Julie Steinhaus develop her website with a lot of custom photography. It’s been a rough road, you know,visiting Julie’s shop for taste tests, photographing beautiful food, arranging spreads to be photographed, but I’ve made it through. On Saturday, Julie and her husband (and PR guy) Bob catered our first house party to celebrate the close of major improvements to our new home. Please visit Julie’s Website to see her delicious offerings and see my photography in action! She caterers all different kind of events too. Brides, if you need a caterer for your wedding or rehearsal dinner, please call Julie and hire…
