In inspiration for our 2017 wedding season that begins this Saturday (HOORAY!), I want to reflect on what a great year 2016 was for us by featuring some of our favorite wedding images from last year! There were a lot of favorites to choose from, but I selected ones that were unique to each wedding, and reflect our photography style, whether it deals with composition, use of natural and artificial light, and a mixture of candid and posed moments throughout the wedding day.
If you are considering booking us for your wedding… hi and thanks! To give you a little bit of background about our photography style… our images are vibrant, bright, clean, modern, and sophisticated. We love to play with sunlight, whether photographing in the afternoon on a bright, cloudless day, or as the sun is setting. Although we love sunny days, these don’t always occur in Pittsburgh, and we have experience photographing in any type of weather (even if it drizzles!) We take many candid and some posed pictures. When posing our couples, it really is just giving them a little bit of direction when we put them in a pretty scene, and this helps to take the pressure off of them so they don’t have to think of what to do as we take the picture.
Well, enough about us… here are some of our favorites from last year’s weddings!

There’s just something about the bridesmaids helping Courtney down the stairs of the Mellon Institute… maybe it is the way they spill up the stairway coupled with the candid moment…
