Laura and John are a couple who are especially near and dear to my heart. Â You see, Laura is a fellow alumnus and legacy (Laura is 3rd generation, I am a 2nd generation) of West Virginia University!! Â John on the other hand, graduated from the University of Pittsburgh like my husband, Tristan. Â Needless to say, we have a LOT in common! Â We both love our significant others despite their choice of college 🙂 heehee!
Since Laura and John are getting married at Heinz Chapel and having their reception at the Pittsburgh Athletic Association, I suggested to Laura that we go down and do their engagement session on her “home turf”. Â It was AWESOME to be home again 🙂 Â Here are some of my favorite photos from the day…..

Alaina and Alex are a wonderful couple who are getting married in June 2014. Â They were up for anything for their engagement session location, so we did a little bit of nature and a little bit of city.

I met with Angel and Don at PPG Place in downtown Pittsburgh for their engagement session. Â We ended up trekking all over the place because the weather was so nice! Â Here are a few of my favorites from their session:

The last wedding of the season was cold, windy, and wet! Â Do you think that stopped Julie and Jim from having their wedding ceremony outside in the rain and their reception inside an unheated barn?? Â NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!! Â This is one of the many reasons why I love them so much. Â They held all of their wedding festivities at Five Pines Barn in Irwin. Â Here are some of my favorite moments from the day….

The old horse stalls were a perfect backdrop for capturing the rustic feeling of the barn…

Ellen and Pat were married in my favorite church in the area: St. Bonaventure Parish in Glenshaw. Â Their wedding reception was held at the Pittsburgh Marriott North in Cranberry Township. Â The sudden downpour and rainy conditions all day didn’t stop us from capturing the love and fun that was had on their wedding day! Â We started out the day at Ellen’s grandmother’s house….
