ALAYNA & CHET

We had the opportunity to photograph Alayna & Chet’s emotional wedding day. Every part of the day was filled with genuine joy. I witnessed so many emotional moments - Alayna reading a letter from her soon to be husband, the father daughter first look, walking down the aisle to say their “I dos”, speeches, first dancers, & as the last song played to bring their incredible day to a close. Being able to capture all of these moments for people to hold on to forever is why I love my job. We wish Alayna & Chet the best of luck on this new adventure!

TAYLOR & PATRICK

We’ve known Taylor since high school and got to meet her then soon to be husband Patrick last winter when we took their engagement photos. It’s always fun getting to see and photograph such a special event for people you know! Their engagement photos and wedding were at the Omni William Penn Hotel in downtown Pittsburgh. Their pup Isla was in attendance for engagement photos, but had to stay behind for the wedding. However Taylor’s friends made sure she had a picture of Isla so she could still be a part of the wedding! Their Gatsy theme was present throughout every detail - from their invitations, to the attire, cocktails, & even the groom’s cigar bar. The personality and love of Taylor & Patrick was present from start to finish. We wish these two the best of luck on this new adventure!

HALEIGH & BRIAN

August is a popular month for weddings, & one of them was Haleigh & Brian’s big day! They got married outside at the beautiful Red Fox Winery, followed by a reception inside the winery. The rustic details and vibrant summer colors made for incredible photos from start to finish. Brian & Haleigh’s love for each other was apparent from the first look as the bride walked down the aisle to her soon to be husband. They laughed & danced the night away, kicking off this new and exciting journey!

MEGAN & NATHAN

Megan & Nathan were one of the most calm, cool, and collected couples on their wedding day that I had ever seen. The day started with casually getting ready and hanging out with a few close friends and family members. The guys walked around with Yuenglings as we took their photos as the girls were hanging out quietly in a room. It was the perfect weather for an outdoor ceremony. The rest of the night was filled with dancing mostly from some of the most outgoing groomsmen I’ve met. A personal firework show brought their perfect day to a close. A big congratulations to Megan & Nathan!
