Leah is a sophomore who had a “mini” photo dance session before her brother’s senior photos! It was so much fun to hear about her love for dance and see all of her amazing talent.
You are so talented, Leah! So thankful to have gotten to know you a bit more! 💛
We had a blast hanging out with Drew at North Park for his senior photos! We had a beautiful evening with lovely light. Congratulations on your senior year, Drew! Best of luck to you in all of your future endeavors!
You might remember these two faces from their Station Square proposal back in May (click here to see!), and if not, allow me to introduce you to Meghan and Ed - two wonderful people who are getting married next year! 🎉
I had the pleasure of photographing Megh and Ed’s surprise proposal, and now, their engagement photos! These two chose Hartwood Acres Mansion, one of my all time favorite spots, as the backdrop for their photos. They also brought along a vintage family heirloom car, which was SO much fun to incorporate into their photos! Meghan wore red to match the car, and Hartwood provided the perfect neutral backdrop for some epic shots!
Meghan and Ed, thank you for the huge honor of walking alongside you two on your journey towards marriage! ☺️ I cannot wait for the wedding!!!
It all started when Kellie, while on a walk with her son, asked Adam if she could pet his dog. Later, Kellie found a note on her car with Adam's number on it, one thing led to another, and at the end of August, Kellie and Adam officially tied the knot at J Verno Studio in a destination here in Pittsburgh, PA!
Oh, and Adam's dog, Kimber, served as the "best dog" for their wedding day 🐶 Talk about the perfect role for the pup that brought them together in the first place!
You’ll also see quite a hilarious “fake” first look in the photos below, which was absolutely hilarious and so much fun to photograph!
All in all, we had the very best time hanging out with these two and their incredible friends and family! Congratulations to you and your sweet family, Kellie & Adam! It was such an honor to be a part of your day! 🎉

I had the pleasure of photographing Jess and Micah through quite a few milestones - first, for their engagement photos (nearly five years ago!), second, on their wedding day (over four years ago!), and now again as they add one more to their sweet family this fall! What a blessing it is to have the privilege of sharing in some of the most joyful seasons in people’s lives 💛
Jess and Micah, I am so thankful for you two - not only for letting me be a part of this season of your lives, but for who you are! Congratulations on your soon to be babe!!
Back at one of my favorite spots in this blog for Maddie's senior session - Hartwood Acres! Maddie is a Mars High School senior who loves Mexican food, is a cheerleader, and who has the best sense of style! Maddie, we had so much fun hanging out with you - congratulations on your last year of school!! 🎉
Alexa is a dancer who whose dream is to become a professional ballerina, and she had the amazing idea to have some photos taken outside of the Benedum Center in the cultural district, which is where many ballets in Pittsburgh take place! After the cultural district, we headed over to the North Shore and caught some beautiful light before the sun went down. Then, right as the sun dipped below the horizon, we headed over to the Roberto Clemente Bridge for some photos of Alexa in her tutu and pointe shoes.
Congratulations on your last year of high school, Alexa! You are a gem!!
Rylan is a Seneca Valley senior whose favorite spot in Pittsburgh is the Strip, so naturally, it was the perfect spot for his senior photos! Congratulations on your last year of high school Rylan! ☺️
Molly and Ryan are a Pittsburgh sports loving, family-oriented couple who had the most beautiful wedding day at Shady Elms Farm in early August!
After these two got engaged on the front steps of Molly’s parents’ house on Thanksgiving day of 2018, they planned their wedding in less than a year (which, nowadays, is a huge feat!) and made sure to keep the day focused on what really matters: their relationship, along the new beginning of their life together, and their family, who they treasure and admire so much (and it’s so easy to see why!).
What I found most intriguing about working with Molly and Ryan was how different, yet perfect they are for each other. Molly’s free-spirited, bubbly personality, perfectly balances Ryan’s sincere, analytical, and organized approach to life (his minute-by-minute wedding day timeline spreadsheet was a big hit in the wedding day toasts!!). They truly make the perfect pair, and it was such an honor to be a part of their day! 💛 Congratulations on your marriage, Molly and Ryan!!

We had the BEST time hanging out with Haley at Succop Nature Park back in August! Haley is a Mars Area High School senior who loves to dance and play the piano, and who enjoys art and photography! She has a bubbly personality and sweet soul, and it was just truly a pleasure to get to work with her and her mom!
Haley, you are one lovely lady! It was such an honor to take your senior photos! 💛
