Energy Innovation Center Wedding | Beth & James
You may remember Beth & James from their magical Chicago engagement session from last year. Their golden retriever likes to steal the show a little, and that trend continued through their wedding! They had a bright and light ceremony at the Energy Innovation Center. Julie Renee Events pulled all the decor together and it turned out amazing!
Intimate Heinz Chapel Wedding | Maddie & Manny
Maddie & Manny had me there to capture their small wedding at Heinz Chapel, followed by running around Pittsburgh capturing their portraits. It was a fun day with lots of beautiful stops. You can’t go wrong with the Columns and Washington’s Landing!
Twelve Oaks Mansion Wedding | Taylor & Curt
Taylor was all about the details during her wedding! She surprised me with having matching elements to her details all ready for me on-site when I arrived. It allowed us to create these magical flat-lays of the wedding pieces.
Longue Vue Country Club Wedding | Huijun and Matthew
This intimate and beautiful wedding was so fun to capture. There was a threat of rain all day long, and we were actually able to even capture a brief thunderstorm in their portraits. Luckily, the rain cleared in time to have their perfect outdoor ceremony.
Priory Wedding | Sarah & Dave
These two actually ended up getting married last year in a small, intimate wedding up on the overlook at Mt. Washington due to Covid. Wedding planning during a pandemic makes everything a little more challenging. They were excited to celebrate their vows with all their family and friends this year at the Priory.
Assumption Church and Phipps Conservatory Wedding | Christa and Martin
Christa and Martin had to have their original wedding plans postponed due to Covid, so they were READY to celebrate this year. It was worth the wait for this beautiful celebration between these two families. We started the day with getting ready at Christa’s parent’s house, which was nice and close to the church. For portraits, the wedding party headed up to Emerald View Park for some skyline views, and wrapped things up at their reception venue, Phipps.
Circuit Center Ballroom Wedding | Corissa and Taylor
Corissa and Taylor got married at the gorgeous Sacred Heart Church in Shadyside. It has a stunning stained glass window at the back, and a long dramatic aisle that is great for the first look moment. For portraits, we had lots of time and were able to go to a number of different locations, including the Columns in Oakland, as well as Washington’s Landing.
Omni Bedford Springs Wedding | Caitlin & Devin
The drive out to the Omni at Bedford Springs is well worth it. The venue is beautiful, and a great spot for a wedding! You certainly don’t have to go anywhere else for portraits - on-site is perfect!
