Pittsburgh Intimate Wedding

There’s something incredibly special about micro weddings in Pittsburgh—those intimate celebrations where the focus is fully on love, connection, and the story being told.

Quinn and Jacob’s summer wedding at The Mansion on Fifth was the perfect example of how powerful and meaningful a smaller celebration can be.

Authentic Moments Documented

As a documentary wedding photographer, I always aim to capture not just the moments, but the emotions that make the day unforgettable.

Quinn and Jacob chose one of Pittsburgh’s most unique venues, and it fit them beautifully.

Getting Ready at The Mansion on Fifth Boutique Hotel

Instead of spending the morning apart, Quinn and Jacob decided to get ready together at The Mansion on Fifth’s boutique hotel.

The historic architecture, dramatic windows, and timeless decor created such a stunning backdrop for their morning.

Every corner of the space feels like art, which made photographing their quiet, joyful moments so inspiring.

The laughter, the little touches, and the way they helped each other prepare for their ceremony set the tone for the rest of their day—deeply personal and beautifully intentional.

A Private Chapel Ceremony in Shadyside

One of the most romantic details of their wedding was their choice to have their ceremony in the mansion’s intimate chapel.

With only their officiant as the witness, Quinn and Jacob exchanged vows in a space filled with history and timeless charm.

It was simple, elegant, and meaningful—proof that sometimes less really is more.

The quietness of the chapel amplified every glance, every smile, and every word spoken. It was a moment that felt completely theirs, untouched by the outside world.

Creating Art from Their Love Story

After the ceremony, we wandered through the mansion’s beautiful interiors, using the architecture and historic details to create portraits that were both romantic and artistic.

The sweeping staircase, tall windows, and vintage details of The Mansion on Fifth made for an atmosphere that felt cinematic.

Every image reflected their connection, not just the place.

This is why I love photographing micro weddings in Pittsburgh—because when the guest list is small, the experience becomes larger than life.

It’s about savoring the little moments and transforming them into timeless art.

Quinn and Jacob’s day is a reminder that weddings don’t need to be large to be impactful.
