Sara and Michael’s Wedding
Sara and Mike met in chemistry class during the last week of their freshman year at Saint Vincent College. They had their first date at a Pirates game. I met with them last year near PNC park for their engagement photos. At that time, their wedding seemed so far away…but last Saturday, it was here! They were surrounded by a wonderful group of family and friends for their ceremony at St John Capistran Catholic Church and their reception at Crowne Plaza Hotel Pittsburgh South. I joined Sara at her parents’ home where she put on her wedding dress. She and her bridesmaids just returned from La Pomoenee. Nicki was with…

Jess and Jason are married!
For me, this spring has been full of weddings of high school sweethearts. Jess and Jason started dating in high school and were married on Saturday at Pleasant Hills Community Presbyterian Church. Jess and Jason truly are best friends. After we met for their very adventurous engagement photos last summer, I was amazed at how comfortable they were together. We got together again to plan a little bit more of their wedding photography in May and I couldn’t believe how calm they were about their upcoming wedding. Calm, comfortable, relaxed and fun. A good recipe for a wedding, indeed. Here are some of my favorite photos from their wedding. I…

Jess and James’ Wedding at Lingrow Farm
Jess met James a few years ago when she was studying abroad in London. James was planning to study abroad in America the following semester and had already told his family he was bound for the USA. After meeting Jess, plans changed slightly and he headed for college in Pennsylvania instead of his original plan to go to Oregon. After years of being 4000 miles apart, short visits, visas, and passports, they were married last weekend at beautiful Lingrow Farm. Jess’ mom and bridesmaids helped her put on her dress. A helping hand for James too! Photo by Nicki It was incredibly hot during the ceremony. I don’t know how…

Shannon and Derek’s Wedding – Crowne Plaza Hotel Pittsburgh South
Shannon and Derek are high school sweethearts who have been dating for nearly a decade. When we met for engagement photos last summer, the wedding seemed so far away. They’ve been together for nearly a third of their lives and finally decided it was time to make it official at their wedding on Saturday. Shannon and her bridesmaids got ready at her parents’ home. I joined them along with Nicki from Syncopated Pictures. A new film will be posted soon featuring more great moments from this wedding. Ryan spent his morning with Derek and the groomsmen.

Jennifer and Brad’s Engagement Shoot in Pittsburgh’s Strip District
Jennifer and Brad started their relationship as really good friends. When they realized that they were interested in dating each other, they were hesitant to date and possibly upset their amazing friendship. Luckily for both of them, things worked out and they’re engaged to be married. Congratulations, Jennifer and Brad! We met this week for their engagement shoot. After being chased out by some rain (eek, thunderstorms) earlier this year, we finally had their shoot in the Strip District on a weekday afternoon. Enjoy!
