Welcome, Sasha!

Monday, September 29th, 2008

Alexander Peter was born in June (just a few days after my daughter), and he’s now three months old already and growing quickly.  Not only is he adorable, but he was also very agreeable with getting his photo taken!  I photographed Tanya’s maternity session back in April, and here they are now:

Elisa + Ryan’s Wedding

Thursday, September 25th, 2008

Elisa and Ryan were married at Springwood, and thankfully the weather held for a lovely outdoor ceremony on September 6. I really enjoyed getting to know them both, and photographing their beautiful wedding.

Best of the ‘Burgh

Monday, September 15th, 2008

How nice to get an email from a friend saying she liked my photos in Pittsburgh Magazine’s “Best of the ‘Burgh”!  I had no idea…  The photos from Jennifer and Ernesto’s wedding are in Pittsburgh Wedding Magazine spring/summer 2008 edition (including the cover), and I’m honored that the magazine decided to feature those photos again in this month’s magazine:

Outside the Pittsburgh Field Club, where the reception took place.  I loved how the clouds matched the line in her veil.
