Renaissance Hotel & Heinz Chapel Wedding | Alaina & Carson
You all know I’m always up for a Heinz Chapel wedding! Alaina & Carson had an incredible day at Heinz, followed by a reception at the Renaissance Hotel. These two and their friends were up for a party! They celebrated all night long, and the photos show it! All receptions should have those epic light sticks.

Heinz Chapel & Kingfly Spirits Wedding | Devan & Eric
Devan & Eric are two of the kindest people you will ever meet. You could just tell by the love their friends & family showed all day. Their photos were a celebration of family. This was the first time I photographed a wedding at Kingfly Spirits, and it was a really unique, industrial space. Plus everyone loves a disco ball! Of course, for their ceremony, they were at my favorite Pittsburgh chapel - Heinz Chapel!
Soldiers & Sailors Wedding | Marissa & Billy
Marissa & Billy had an incredible day with the best vendor team of all time. Every detail was just exquisite. Personally, I’m still obsessed with Marissa’s gloves - can we bring those back on the daily, because WOW!
Given that this day also had 50 mph winds that added a little bit of chaos and some extra spectacular veil drama, I’m impressed how well they hung in for portraits outside. The chill made it a little uncomfortable, but it was so worth it!
PPG Wintergarden Wedding | Nikki & Lucas
Nikki & Lucas had one of the best portrait locations - the convention center! We lucked out that Lucas had a connection to get us roof access for one of the best city views in Pittsburgh.
After their portraits around town, we headed to PPG Wintergarden for their ceremony and reception. PPG Wintergarden is a gorgeous, modern space that is always a pleasure to photograph. You just can’t beat the all glass walls and that classic black & white flooring!
Lily and Kevin had a gorgeous day at Phipps in Oakland. You may remember these two from their ballroom dance engagement session this summer. Their wedding photos turned out gorgeous! They did a private first look, so we did all their portraits before the wedding, meaning they were able to just join the cocktail hour and party right after the ceremony, no stress! It was so fun to be a part of.
Erin was all about having lots of color throughout her wedding, and I think she nailed it! With a dream team of vendors including Holly Hanna Floral and Wanderlust Weddings & Events, how can you go wrong? I’m still dreaming of those fluffy floral clouds!
National Aviary Wedding | Angela & Jason
Angela & Jason’s wedding was absolute magic! I mean, I love an Aviary wedding - who doesn’t love when penguins are invited to the wedding! These two also gave a surprise performance of the last dance from the movie Dirty Dancing, and wow’d their guests! Afterwards, we snuck out to the lake for some epic night shots.
This was my first time at this venue, and it was perfect for Elizabeth & Dante’s large Pittsburgh wedding! I think the cookie table alone took up half the room - I had to take home a box. The venue is across the street from my studio, so we actually snuck over there for a few extra portraits of the two of them.
