My goal is for you to look back on your wedding day with joy, love, and affection. I strive to capture not just scenes, but the essence of who you are as a couple, a family, and a community. My aspiration is to create images that are not only emotionally resonant but also compositionally artistic.

 

Wedding Ceremony Photography

As an experienced photographer, I’m all about capturing your special day’s fun, candid moments! I specialize in modern wedding photography, engagements, surprise proposals, elopements, family portraits, high school senior portraits, and even professional pet photography. With over 18 years of photography experience, I officially launched my photography business in 2006, focusing on family and animal photography. I received my certification in fine art photography from Pittsburgh Filmmakers in 2005, and I’m a proud member of Professional Photographers of America.  I’m passionate about creating fun, lively, and timeless images that my clients can treasure forever!

Our base is in Pittsburgh, PA, and we proudly cater to clients in West Virginia, Ohio, and the surrounding areas of Pennsylvania.
