Laura & Ryan | A Hartwood Acres Engagement | Pittsburgh

Laura and Ryan wanted a more formal look to their engagement session. She rented an AMAZING dress from Rent the Runway, and rocked it! Hartwood Acres was the perfect setting for this fashion forward shoot. I'm so excited to shoot their wedding next year!!!

Fall Oakland Engagement Session | Sarah & Colin

Fall Oakland Engagement Session | Sarah & Colin

Sarah told me that they wanted to just have fun for their engagements, so we frolicked through the tall grasses in Schenley Park. The best photos always happen when you’re willing to act silly and just go with the flow. We ended their session at Mellon Park, which is timeless for a Pittsburgh engagement.

Rainy Day Engagement Session | Marissa & Billy

August 26, 2022

There was a zero percent chance of rain on the day of Marissa & Billy’s session, but that didn’t stop the rain from happening anyway. It absolutely poured the second half of their shoot. Luckily, these two were down to adventure and they went out and danced in the rain. We got completely soaked, and decided to finish their session a few days later. Well worth it!

Downtown Pittsburgh Engagement Session | Alicia & Joe

August 17, 2022

These two wanted a date-night style engagement session, and our first choice of location happened to be closed. We were able to make a quick change and head to Revel & Roost in Market Square to capture happy hour images, and I LOVE how they came out! Then we finished out their session with rooftop night-shots.

North Shore & Mt. Washington Engagement | Lily & Kevin

July 9, 2022

When your clients are ballroom dancers, you get extra epic photos with many, many lifts. Also, can I just say that I love this combination of locations? Allegheny Commons Park always gets the best light, and then we ended with classic Pittsburgh spots to grab that beautiful skyline. Sometimes it is great to be a photographer in PIttsburgh!
