All I can say is WOW! Another wedding season is in the books, and boy was it an absolutely AMAZING one!!! This year, my first wedding of the year was the very first week of January, with a long break for a few months before starting back up in April and going through the end of October!
This was the first year I put a cap on the number of weddings I took, clocking in at a max of 21! Truthfully, with the 70 other portrait-style sessions I took this year, putting a cap on the number of weddings I took allowed me to really focus in on each one and give each couple my full attention and creativity on their big day!
Below, I’ve put together a loooong blog post of some of my favorite photos and moments from each of the weddings I photographed this year, starting with my last wedding, and ending with my first.
But first, to each and every couple (including their family and friends!) who gave me the honor of documenting their day: thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for trusting me with the immense honor and privilege of photographing your wedding day! It was my absolute privilege to come alongside you and serve you during your day. There is no shortage of amazingly talented photographers in the Pittsburgh area, and the fact that you put your trust in me blows my mind. Every one of you is an answer to prayer, and I praise God for our time together! Thank you, thank you, thank you! 💛
Without further ado, some of my favorite wedding moments from 2019. All glory to God for these moments and for these beautiful people and their life-long commitments to each other!

Let me let you in on a little secret: it rained Katie and Shane’s ENTIRE wedding day, but that did not stop us from getting some epic portraits!
Katie brought me this absolutely GORGEOUS tray to style with her details. I was in detail heaven!!!
Quite possibly the best natural light I’ve ever had in a getting ready space! I could shoot here every weekend!
This was their ceremony space 😍
Bright and colorful weddings are always some of my favorites! Alyssa and Ben had THE most beautiful details. Bouquet is by Shady Elms Farm!
They had the most beautiful, glowy light for portraits, too!
Possibly one of my favorite first looks to date! Nick and I cleared this ENTIRE balcony of tables and chairs after realizing that the spot we had originally planned for HD and Jeff’s first look was being used in a race where 2,000 people were going to run through 😂
HD’s sisters were here bridesmaids! 💕 They were just the sweetest!!!
We snagged this shot right before the ceremony. The light was just too perfect!
It was HOT in this room, but it was so worth it for Kayla and Donny’s portraits!
The sweetest father daughter first look, ever. I cried.
Thankful these two let us steal them away for some epic night shots!
We lucked out and the bridge was closed on Krista and Brent’s wedding day! 🎉
The most beautiful ceremony space in all of Pittsburgh. I’m convinced.
This shot is a MUST if you have a wedding at the Pennsylvanian! So thankful that these two made this a priority!

It rained and it poured for this wedding day - but epic photos were still made! 🎉 And these two had the best attitudes about it all!
Literally can’t get over this wedding. It was too beautiful!
White Barn coming in clutch with some clean backdrops!
I am so thankful that these two trusted me - they jumped in fields and walked all over the White Barn’s property to find the best light and locations! Cait and Brian, you two are champs!!
The couple who eats tacos together, stays together 💕
My second shooter took this shot and it’s one of my favorites from Val and Matt’s day! (Photo cred to my husband, Nick!)
