Haley & Jared: McConnell's Mill Engagement Photos

It was such a treat to get to photograph Haley & Jared at McConnell's Mill during such a beautiful fall season! Haley & Jared are getting married next year at Shady Elms Farm.

They met while at Robert Morris University and had a few classes that overlapped while they studied their respective majors there. It was so easy to see the love these two have for each other... and it made my job so easy!

How perfect are their outfits for the beautiful fall backdrop?! The red dress against the colorful leaves was just

Congratulations on your engagement, you two!

Amber & Ryan: Moraine State Park Engagement Photos

You may remember these two from earlier this year... I had the privilege of photographing their proposal in Zelienople earlier this spring (click here to see it)! I was so honored when they asked me to take their engagement & wedding photos. I loved getting to photograph them again in September at Moraine State Park!

And may I just say that Moraine State Park is my absolute favorite location this time of year, from now into the fall. I mean... can you believe all of those colors and textures?! The light was perfect last night... and I was so glad! It was a bit rainy the day of Amber & Ryan's proposal, so I had been hoping for a really beautiful day for their engagement photos. I'm so thankful that that's what we got!

Amber & Ryan, congratulations on your engagement, and thank you for letting me walk through this season with you!

Allison & Bryant: Sunrise Mellon Park Engagement Photos

We have a small intermission from senior season to feature these two - Allison & Bryant!

These two met while working at Chick-fil-A in 2018 and have been dating for six years! They got engaged at the Aviary and are getting married at the White Barn - my one of my favorite wedding venues! (Also, where Nick and I got married back in 2015, so I'm totally not biased )

But this session was extra special because Allison and I grew up across the street from each other! What a joy it is to celebrate this sweet season alongside these two!

Also, Allison & Bryant woke up on a Saturday for a sunrise session.. and we got some of the most gorgeous light as our reward!

Congratulations on your engagement, Allison & Bryant!

Brianna & Andrew: Moraine State Park Engagement Photos

Meet Brianna & Andrew!

These two met online! After their first date, they both knew they had found their best friend (Their words, not mine!)

After a few years of dating, Andrew proposed (in March of this year) and of course Brianna said yes!

Last night, we took some photos celebrating their engagement at the beautiful Moraine State Park - a place they frequent with both of their dogs! I love that they chose a location that was meaningful to the two of them... and so beautiful!

We found a GORGEOUS field with absolutely beautiful light… it was magical! And then we finished off our time together closer to the water. I love the area near the water right before/at sunset… the light is always so soft and pretty!

Congratulations on your engagement, Brianna & Andrew! It was such a joy to take these photos for you!

Rachel & Boaz: University of Pittsburgh Engagement Photos

Meet Rachel & Boaz!

These two met while attending the University of Pittsburgh through Rachel's roommate, and got to know each other while they were both attending Bellefield Presbyterian Church (in Oakland) during their time at Pitt!

Boaz proposed to Rachel in the church's sanctuary after playing the piano for her... so it's a very special place for them both!

For their engagement session, we, of course, took photos all around Oakland! We started off our time together at Bellefield Presbyterian. It has some gorgeous red doors and beautiful architecture for us to incorporate into their photos! Afterwards, we made our way to some different spots on Pitt's campus. It was the most gorgeous sunny afternoon... and made for the loveliest photos!

Rachel & Boaz, you are the sweetest and I am so excited for your wedding day!

Jillian & Zack: Oakland Engagement Photos

Meet Jillian & Zack!

These two finance Pitt grads chose the perfect spot for their engagement session... Oakland! There's something about Oakland in the fall that feels a bit like the movie "You've Got Mail" (if you've never seen it... it's a good one!)

We started off their session at the Mellon Institute columns, then headed over to Heinz Chapel, the Cathedral of Learning, and finally, a beautiful little grass/tree area near the library. That had to be my favorite spot… the fall colors were so gorgeous!

I am so excited to be a part of their December 2024 wedding (which was thoughtfully planned for that time around the Pitt sport schedule I love it!).

Congratulations on your engagement, Jillian & Zack!

Camryn & Zach: Moraine State Park Engagement Photos

Meet Camryn & Zach! (And their pup, Kip!)

I photographed Camryn & Zach at the gorgeous Moraine State Park on a beautiful late summer/early fall evening in celebration of their engagement! They are a sweet pair who is planning on celebrating their wedding day next year in an intimate ceremony down south. They met while attending IUP!

Moraine was looking especially gorgeous on the night of their session - it is one of my favorite locations for that "summer to fall" transition (And quite possibly my favorite fall spot!)

Congratulations on your engagement, Camryn & Zach!

Becca & Nate: North Park Engagement Photos

Meet Becca & Nate!

These two met when they were both attending Robert Morris University (I always love to work with fellow alumni)! Their first date was eating dinner at Olive Garden & watching Frozen, and they got engaged this spring and are planning a wedding for next year!

I spent a beautiful, early fall evening photographing them at North Park! We had the perfect weather and the prettiest light, and we found a gorgeous field with wildflowers that stole the show out of all of the locations we used.

I am so thankful that I get to be a part of their wedding day!

Congratulations again on your engagement, Becca & Nate!

Lindsey & Brody: Butler Engagement Photos

Meet Lindsey & Brody!

These two high school met in 7th grade, started dating in 10th grade, and are now engaged to be married next year!

Lindsey & Brody had their photos taken at a very special location... on Brody's grandpa's property! He has a beautiful property in Butler filled with ponds, barns, forest, fields - and we got to explore it all with them yesterday evening!

They will also be getting married on this very property this upcoming spring, making it an even more special spot! And if that wasn't sweet enough... Brody's parents actually got married on the property years ago!

And I photographed Lindsey's sister's wedding a few years ago... it is always ALWAYS a joy (and an honor) to be invited back to document weddings within the same family!

I just adore this couple, and I could hardly choose just a few previews to share because I already have so many favorites!

Congratulations on your engagement, Lindsey & Brody! Can't wait for next year!

Atalya & Chase: Strip District & Point State Park Engagement Photos

Meet Atalya & Chase! They recently got engaged and are in the process of planning their wedding day for next summer!

We spent the evening of their engagement session in two spots that are special to them - the Strip District (where they met & had their first date), and Point State Park (where Chase proposed - from a helicopter above the park!).

We had the threat of rain all day leading up to their session, but even though the clouds were dark in the distance, we made it through their entire session without rain - and with a beautiful golden hour!

I could hardly begin to choose just a handful of favorites from our time together, so enjoy a photo overload of this sweet couple!

Congratulations on your engagement, Atalya & Chase!
