Natalie and Chuck were married at First Lutheran Church of Pittsburgh and their reception was at the Renaissance Pittsburgh Hotel. They planned to have their ceremony and reception downtown so that guests would be able to stay in the city. A shuttle provided transportation to and from the ceremony.
Doesn’t Natalie look stunning in this swanky setting?
Chuck and his entourage look dapper in this action shot. They are men on a mission.
The Lutheran church’s sanctuary was a breath-taking setting for the couple’s nuptials.
We walked to Mellon Square for some photos by the fountain.
Here is one of my favorites of Natalie and Chuck.
We also stopped by the Clemente Bridge on our way to the reception. The bridge was closed to traffic that night because of the Pirates game.
Here’s a favorite of Natalie on the grand staircase at the hotel.
Here’s a sweet moment during the cake cutting.
Natalie reminds me of Princess Diana in this photo of their first dance.
What a beautiful day. Congratulations Natalie and Chuck!

Renee and Orland are planning an October wedding and they decided to set downtown Pittsburgh as the location for their engagement session. We had an early morning start at the point which is usually a fabulous setting. Unfortunately, the fountain was not operating that morning and we were surprised to find a lot of litter. Not to be discouraged, we walked across the sidewalk along the Fort Duquesne Bridge to the more polished North Shore with spectacular views of the city and freshly landscaped surroundings.
Here’s a favorite from this diversion:
I love the texture of this concrete and the moody feel of the city:
Here’s a nice view of this sweet couple from one of the many bridges along the Allegheny River.
And lastly, my favorite by the willow trees lit by the morning sun. You can just feel the love in this one.
This couple was so much fun to photograph. Renee and Orland, I’m looking forward to your wedding this fall!

Here are a few more photos from Sarah’s and Mikes’s wedding at Phipps Conservatory.
I love Sarah’s expression in this candid moment during their ceremony. She looks stunning as she looks over her shoulder at her sister.
The new Mr. and Mrs. take a pause before they walk down the aisle.
If I could do my wedding over again, I’d totally have this cake. I love those Muppets cake toppers and the cake was delish too!
Time to celebrate with some bubbly!
Cheers to Sarah and Mike!
Goodness gracious, are they the cutest flower girl and ring bearer you ever saw?
Here’s the groom and his compadres. They totally laughed at me when I told them to be tough guys.
Sarah and Mike, under the tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g!
And another kiss, but this time in the biergarten at the Hofbrauhaus in Pittsburgh’s South Side where they held a very fun and playful reception.
Their first date was in Germany, so the German atmosphere at the Hofbrauhaus held special meaning to them.
What’s really sweet though, is that this couple has known each other growing up and they actually dated for a few weeks in grade school! Sarah and Mike, congratulations to you!

Betsy and Steve were married at Kurtz’s Beach on the Chesapeake Bay.I have to reveal that Bets is my beautiful sister and I couldn’t help but bring my camera to take some photos when I had a few minutes here and there.
Here are a few shots that I got between assisting my sister as maid of honor.
This was Betsy’s version of something old, new, borrowed and blue.The British pound taped to her shoe is a good luck charm.
Betsy’s colors were aqua and other shades of blue.I love the seashells in her bouquet.
Her dress was light and beautiful.The bodice sparkled and the train flowed in the wind as she walked down the aisle.
She only has eye shadow on in this photo.Isn’t her skin flawless?
I remember when she used to wear pigtails and now she’s this beautiful bride.
Here’s a sweet moment while she’s leaning over her bathroom countertop and talking to another bridesmaid.
Betsy and Steve are great dancers.When they were announced at the reception they danced their way onto the dance floor and the guests went wild.Here’s a much more subdued first dance.
Their cake was delicious—best I ever had—with European butter cream icing and raspberry ganache.They used smaller cakes as centerpieces at each of the tables and those cakes had white chocolate seashells with a blue marbled pattern—perfect for the seashore theme.
Betsy and Steve had a candy table in lieu of Pittsburgh’s traditional cookie table.The candies were all in blue hues and guests lined up to fill their bags.
And lastly, here is a quick photo of Betsy on the terrace.The purple sunset made a beautiful backdrop and I added a little texture for some fun.The day flew by and the happy couple went off to honeymoon in Aruba.
