Justin & Jessie Wedding

Talk about your fairy tale weddings, Justin and Jessie's wedding was one people dream of...First off, the church was incredible! Calvary United Methodist in the beautiful old city of Allegheny (Pittsburgh’s Northside). The church opened somewhere around 1899 after a fire destroyed the previous one. The Heinz and Mellon families were the primary contributors to the rebuilding. The amazing fact is that Louis Tiffany himself came to Pittsburgh for 6 months and personally made the stain glass windows in this church. Some of the stain glass is up to 3 inches thick and up to Nine Thousand pieces of glass! Check this out:

Jessie and Justin had a secret rondevu before their ceremony at the Carnegie Institute in Oakland. Jessie loved the shot from Courtney’s wedding and wanted one of her own. I do love that space, no matter how many times its used, its always gorgeous...Do they look AMAZING or what? Is her gown is breathtaking or what? Justin had a few surprises up his sleeve. He totally surprised her with a horse and carriage when they came out of the church.


...and a romantic ride through the historic West Park!

There was so much beauty in the church, it was hard to leave...I love this back spiraling stair case in the back of the church.
Look at their figures against a sheet of blur as Justin and Jessie take their first dance. At the reception, everyone came ready to DANCE! The entire dance floor joins hands...

I didnt catch this girls name but man was she fun!
Needless to say, thanks to alot of planning, this wedding was a total success! Congrats to Jessie and Justin, enjoy your honeymoon and see ya when you get back!

The Wedding Party!

I feel like these portraits truly captured their personalities...I live for moments, and I love Chris's mother watching their first dance. Note the hands in both frames...

This is my favorite from the day, but then again, I'm a sucker for trees : )

I think I have known Chris for 6-7 years? I went to college with his lovely bride Heather. So needless to say, when they told me they we're getting married, I knew I had the job! They are seriously one of the sweetest couples I have had the pleasure of knowing and working for...here are few from their special day.

Kris & Courtney Wedding

Kris and Courtney saw each other before the wedding which allowed us to produce a ton of creative images. Here are just a few from the day that I love, have good honeymoon guys!

Justin & Jessie Engagement

Justin and Jessie are the kind of clients I will become life-long friends with and they are very much in love! I really enjoyed this session and look forward to their wedding!

Kris & Courtney Engagement

What a sweet couple! I love Courtney's laugh & there is something about it that makes everyone feel good. Look at the natural reaction to each other and the overall chemistry between this couple from Baltimore.
