What can I say about these two? They were so amazing to work with, and their session was pretty special. They were celebrating their move to France, and saying goodbye to the city of Pittsburgh. 

We ended up choosing North Shore because that''s what Rachel had actually first suggested, and it was the place to have a beautiful skyline and get that special Pittsburgh charm! ;)

From the moment Owen reached out, I knew he was different. When I met his gorgeous wife, and the girl who stole my heart the moment I saw her, Winnie, I realized I was seeing a beautiful family whose purpose is very special and full of love.

An afternoon for the books. A beautiful place, an afternoon with one of those sunsets Florida is famous for, a beautiful set, and a gorgeous couple crazy about each other = Magic! 

When I first read Keara’s initial message I was beyond excited. She had a pretty awesome vision in mind, and she was open to making some magic together. I’d say that’s what anybody would expect when a photographer meets an architect and a designer having a romantic date on a spring afternoon in one of the most special cities of the world, Pittsburgh. 

Winters can be long and tiring but if you do things that complement it they can be as fun as you make them, which is what we did in this gorgeous engagement session where Shannon & Jake played in the snow, danced, and ran around enjoying the moment.

As I said before, each season is very special and the fact that we have all four seasons in Pittsburgh is amazing! Winter couples' sessions are underrated, and I know many like to stay cozy in their homes drinking hot chocolate while reading a book—which is totally fine, and we can capture that in a session, but going outside and playing in this winter wonderland we’ve had in Pittsburgh lately will take your session to a whole new level.

Let me just start by saying something very important which is relevant to Tara + Luchin, but also to all of us humans. When your soul is happy, then rest assure you’re on the right track, and you’re exactly where you should be in life. This was another very, very special photoshoot for me, let me tell you why

This was a very special shoot for me. Getting to see the van of these two loves birds created to travel all over the United States, and seeing them in action was incredible. There’s something so magical about two people breaking the rules of what’s expected from a married couple in today’s society and lets us know that life is a lot more than what we think it is.

I know, I know! Covid-19 has been devastating and draining, but we should look at the bright side, and what positives it has brought to our lives. For one, many of us have had time to reflect, and discover things about ourselves that we were probably overlooking because of how fast we were living. For others, this time has been for love...

One of my favorite times for photos is during golden hour, and whenever I have more flexibility and power over scheduling couples, I take advantage of this time, which is exactly what I did for Carrie & Ryan's maternity session! 

The session was brief, but we took advantage of the many magical spots you can find at Hartwood Park. One of my favorites of this afternoon was a spot in the woods where the sun was filtering through, bringing out those golden tones we love so much. 

It was sunny, it was cold, and it was a perfect day to do a couple's session for Hunter & Kristin surrounded by the beautiful evergreen woods at McConnells State Park. 

If there's anything that I would like to add about this beautiful photo shoot is that love is love, and it transcends gender, age, space and time. If anybody thinks or feels differently, I invite you to see this gallery, and reflect on what your definition of love is, and why you'd think differently. 

Personally, I loved every minute of this session, and my face hurt afterwards for smiling so much.
