Allison & Bryant: White Barn Wedding Pictures (Prospect, PA)

Allison & Bryant tied the knot in the fall of 2025 at the White Barn in Prospect, PA! ❤️ One of my favorite wedding venues in Pittsburgh, this venue has an endless array of beautiful backdrops for photos. This was my first time taking photos in their new Air b&b, which is right on the property! It made the transition from getting ready to ceremony totally seamless.

I personally have known Allison since she was just a few years old - and over the years, I’ve photographed her senior photos and her engagement photos. To say it was an honor to photograph hers & Bryant’s wedding day would be an understatement. I am so grateful for the opportunity to come alongside this sweet couple as they said their “I do’s.” I just adore their whole family!

Congratulations on your wedding & marriage, Allison & Bryant!

Haley & Jared: Shady Elms Farm Wedding Pictures

Haley & Jared’s wedding day at Shady Elms Farm was a joy to be a part of! Being a Pittsburgh wedding photographer has granted me so many opportunities to visit beautiful locations that I may not have ever gotten to see… including Shady Elms Farm! It is a photographer’s dream, full of beautifully curated spaces that feel like they are made for photos. Not to mention, the staff at the farm is just as incredible!

Though I’ve photographed many weddings at Shady Elms Farm, this was my first with a ceremony under their new (to me) pavillion. And I just have to say… can every venue have a pavillion like this?! The natural light was beautiful, and it is the perfect “rain spot” so that couples and vendors don’t have to worry about having a back up rain plan. Truly… what a great idea!

Congratulations on your wedding day, Haley & Jared!

Dani & Trevor: Grupp's Christmas Tree Farm Couples Photo Session

If you’ve been following along, you might recognize Dani in these photos below! Dani started assisting me with photo sessions a few years ago, and we have had such a blast getting to work together! I asked if her and her husband Trevor would be willing to be my “test models” to get some images to promote my Christmas mini sessions this year (at Grupp’s Christmas Tree Farm), and I was so excited when they said yes! It was a win-win - photos for them, sample images for me!

The original day of our session, it was dark and rainy… so we rescheduled to the following week. I am so thankful we did, because we had the most beautiful day and glowiest light!

What I loved about photographing these two at Grupp’s was the variety of images we were able to get - some in the Christmas tree area, and some in a small fielded area nearby that looked more fall-ish. Their outfits were the perfect in between for the seasons, too… and they were a blast to photograph!

It also just so happens that these two were celebrating their 10 year anniversary this year, so of course, we had to get some photos commemorating their wedding rings.

I’m so thankful for you both, Dani & Trevor!

Welcome to the world, sweet baby girl!

Newborn in-home sessions have definitely grown on me these last few years after becoming a mom myself. I loved getting to photograph Liz and her sweet December baby in Moon Township! And of course, we had to incorporate a little bit of Christmas into the mix with baby girl being born in December!

Congratulations on your beautiful baby girl, Liz!

Christmas in-home family sessions might be my new favorite...

What a sweet time I had photographing this beautiful family! When Mary Beth asked me to photograph her family in their home while their Christmas decorations were up, I was thrilled to say the least! When I showed up and they had cookies for props... I knew we were going to have so much fun!

Thank you so much for letting me be a part of this sweet season of your lives!

Carnegie Museum of History Surprise Proposal in Pittsburgh

Josh proposes to Aaleigha!

It was a cold, blustery day in Pittsburgh - but warm (and busy ) inside the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. Aaleigha thought they were having a "normal" date the Museum, but little did she know she was in for the surprise of a lifetime!

I was so honored to be a part of such a sweet moment for these two! After 6 years of dating, Josh popped the question to Aaleigha at the bottom of the grand staircase at the museum. After the big moment, we spent some time walking through the museum, hitting some of the best spots for photos!

I've photographed one wedding at the museum years ago, but this was my first proposal here, and it was so much fun!

Congratulations on your engagement, Josh & Aaleigha!

We had a beautiful day at Hartwood Acres Mansion for Lexi's senior session! She is an Upper St. Claire senior who plays basketball and loves a good salty snack.

She also brought three gorgeous outfits with her, all of which went so well with the mansion backdrop!

You're in for a treat today!

Meet Aaron - he's a senior at North Allegheny! He loves his dog (Nugget - who made an appearance for his session!) and laughing... and we did a lot of laughing during our session! Aaron is one of the most joyful people I've had the pleasure of photographing.

I've had the pleasure of photographing Aaron's brothers in years past.. it is always such a compliment when families stick with me throughout the years for photos!

The first part of Aaron's session took place at his family's home/property, and the second part took place at the Woodlands. You'll even see some behind-the-scenes photos at the end of this post that Aaron's mom (Jill) took during our time together!

I'm so grateful to have been able to work with this incredible family for so many years. So grateful for you all!

Meet Cassidy!

Cassidy is a Chartier's Valley senior who - as a non-morning person - recently braved a sunrise session at Moraine State Park like a champ! Morning sessions always have some of the prettiest light, and the Moraine shoreline did not disappoint!

Cassidy is involved in marching band, musical theater (stage crew!), and is a junior firefighter. She plans to study physical therapy post high school, and was inspired by her own experience from a physical therapist who made the process fun for her.

Congrats on your senior year, Cassidy, and thanks for letting me take these photos for you!

Meet Lexi!

Lexi is a Chartier's Valley senior who loves a good sweet treat - specifically, anything chocolate (same ). We had the prettiest evening for her senior photos - the weather was perfect, and the light was *chef's kiss*.

I'll let you in on a little secret... this is my favorite time of year for photos! September into October always has some of my favorite golden hour light, and I'm always so thankful when the clouds part and we're able to capture it in a senior session!

Congratulations on your senior year, Lexi!
