Y’all I might be sounding like a broken record with all these fall weddings, but each one is just SO good and I get so excited every time I’m ready to share a new one! Julie & Peter’s day was no exception. Julie and I were next-door neighbors our freshman year of college at Franciscan […]

Maria and Patrick’s wedding day was straight out of a fairytale, or better yet a Taylor Swift music video (this wedding gives me strong “Love Story or Enchanted” vibes. Totally random tangent, but does anyone else remember when it was a big thing to make music videos out of movie clips and put them to […]

You guys. This wedding. Where do I start? I think the photo above accurately depicts the sheer amount of JOY that radiated throughout this day. Ellie & Pete are highschool sweethearts and they and their families waited 8 years for this day and it was so worth the wait. I photographed Ellie’s older brother’s wedding […]

Classy, elegant, and a pop of just plain cool are the best words I can think to describe this incredibly fun downtown Pittsburgh wedding. Cristina and Michael were such an enjoyable couple to work with and their laid back attitudes and love of life and adventure came together for a wonderful day. I don’t know […]

I feel like I start to sound like a broken record with each new wedding I share, but I just can’t help it! MaryKate and Tom’s wedding was incredible from beginning to end and it was an honor to be a part of it. MaryKate went to Franciscan University with me and it was so […]

A few weeks ago I flew out to Nashville for a quick 24-hour trip to capture Taylor and Vaughan’s engagement photos. Taylor went to Franciscan University with me (she was just a few years ahead of me) and we belonged to the same household (FUS’s version of a sorority). Taylor is an incredible musician and […]

Where do I start with this wedding? Nuala & John were married on Labor Day Weekend in Northern New Jersey at one of the most beautiful churches I’ve photographed in, St John’s Catholic Church. Their wedding day fell on the most perfect end of summer/beginning of fall day. The weather was glorious, the sun was […]

A little over a week ago, Lynn and John were married on the most beautiful August day. Lynn and John were married at St. Joseph Catholic Church in York, PA which is actually the church I grew up going to (and is still where my family belongs and where my dad works). I have only […]

This engagement session was an absolute dream! In June, I flew out to California to photograph Esmeralda and José’s engagement session. Since I was going to be there for a whole weekend, we decided to do two different sessions. We went to Carpinteria Beach the first night (you might remember that blog post), and then […]

Wildflowers, sage green and dusty blue accents, a huge white tent under a sweeping blue sky, twinkle lights, an epic veil, and so much joy sums up Mary Kate & Lucas’ charming boho wedding. On the last day of July, surrounded by all the people they love, Mary Kate & Lucas became man and wife. […]

Molly and Thomas’s wedding day was perfect. Ever since I did their engagement session last fall, I have been so excited about their wedding! I actually photographed Thomas’s sister’s wedding a few years ago and it was so fun to see their family once again. Molly chose a rust and navy color scheme and I […]

“To Heaven we climb.” These were the words that Annie ended her wedding letter to Ryan with and these four words completely encapsulate these two and their desire for their marriage and the life they intend to build together. Annie & Ryan’s sage and navy wedding at The Corner House in southern Indiana was beautiful […]

Amy and Andy’s micro wedding took place in the beautiful Maryland countryside. Amy looked like a bride straight out of a fairy tale with her stunning flowy gown, real flower crown, and her beautiful soft curls. And the flowers, I could not get over their flowers! Huge pink peonies were the star of the florals […]

Oh my goodness, this engagement session gives me all the feels! Mary Kate and Lucas met at Franciscan University and their close friendship eventually turned into this beautiful relationship. These two are so fun and so dang photogenic! We started their engagement session out at the golf course at FUS and then headed to Sally […]

|| May 2021 || April 2021 || June was a busy month for me even though I actually only had two weddings. Despite that, I still managed to be out of town almost every weekend and the days flew by (as usual). I actually had a harder time coming up with this list because I […]
