Rachel and Bary’s Engagement Photos at Mellon Park
Rachel and Bary considered many photographers before choosing us to be their wedding photographer. I’m not sure how many interviews they went on, but It seems like somewhere in the 20-25 range. So I’m very honored, humbled, and a tad nervous (in the good way that I am excited to work hard for my clients) to photograph their wedding next June. As Rachel and Bary both live out of town, currently in separate cities, we made some time together on Black Friday for their engagement shoot. We began at their (and my!) alma mater, Carnegie Mellon. After a quick stop to the place where they had their first kiss, we…

Barbie and Chuck’s Engagement Session with the Pittsburgh City Skyline
Barbie and Chuck have a unique engagement story. They had talked about getting married for a while and Chuck had secretly bought a ring. One evening, Barbie was sitting on the couch with pajamas and wine, studying for an exam. She jokingly bet Chuck $10 that they would not be getting engaged that night. A few minutes later, Chuck pulled the coffee table out from under her feet and asked her to get up so that he could proposed. Though she thought “[he] can’t be serious,” he was. And she lost the bet. Chuck has yet to collect his $10. Barbie, I think it’s time to pay up. We got…

Briana and Tim’s Engagement Photos on a Farm
When I met Briana and Tim for an interview last December, I fell instantly in love with them. They love being outdoors and they (especially Briana) LOVE photography. Before I got a chance to show my sample wedding albums, Briana and Tim were showing me a press printed album (think yearbook) that they had made of their trip across the country the previous summer. When do I get to go to a meeting and see new albums? They also showed me their blog and tole me all about their wedding. Love! Briana also mentioned that she loved creative photography and was willing to try any crazy thing I wanted to…

Shannon and Derek’s Engagement Photos in the Strip District
Sometimes, it rains on your engagement session. And sometimes it rains on your wedding day. While I can’t control when it rains (and IF I could, I would probably change careers, become corrupt, and make an insane amount of money), I can control when I’m going to photograph people for their Engagement Session. If you are flexible on when your engagement photos can happen, then I can be too. Sometimes there is only one day or time when we can get together, and I’m confident that I can make beautiful, fun photos for you at that time, no matter what the weather. But other times, when there is cloud-to-ground lightening…

Jamie and Ben – Butler County Conservancy Photography
I used to work with Ben at Burt Hill. During an office renovation, we sat together surrounded by people from a different department. Bonding occurred. Ben’s sister, Lexi, got married in August and both Ben and his wife, Jamie, were in the bridal party. At Angie and Alex’s wedding, Ben was a guest while Jamie was the maid of honor. Now they are pretty much bridal party professionals. After seeing so many awesome and fun photographs of people they knew, they wanted some of their own. We met at Butler County Conservancy (the same place where I met Ben’s sister, Lexi in June for Lexi and Josh’s Engagement Photos ).…
