There’s something incredibly special about photographing a love story in a place that feels like it could be out of a movie—timeless, luxurious, and filled with ambiance.

That’s exactly what it felt like when I photographed this romantic engagement at The Oaklander Hotel, Autograph Collection in the heart of Pittsburgh’s Oakland neighborhood.

Have you ever considered doing something completely different for your engagement photos?

Non-traditional engagement photos are a vibe, and they’re rooted on you as a couple: your love, energy and intimacy.

If being in the city, going to museums, looking at art and having life experiences together is something you enjoy doing as a couple, then doing your engagement photos at the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh might be what you’re looking for!

There are some weddings that leave a lasting imprint—and Louise and Matt’s wedding was one of them.

Have you been dreaming of having a romantic engagement session that feels like it’s out of a movie scene? That’s exactly how this romantic summer engagement felt like!

There’s something incredibly powerful about capturing who you are right now—before your wedding, before the next chapter begins.

One of the most personal and empowering ways to do that is through a boudoir photo session.

As someone who specializes in boudoir photos in Pittsburgh, I can honestly say—this isn’t just about getting a few pretty pictures. It’s about storytelling, confidence, and honoring this beautiful season in your life.

There are moments that unfold so naturally, yet feel like they’ve been written in the stars—and CJ’s surprise engagement proposal to Shannon was exactly that kind of magic.

In the Pittsburgh area, there’s plenty of wedding venues to choose from, but if you’d like a classy and timeless venue, you might have found what you were looking for.

Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Hall and Museum in Oakland is nothing but a dream for those seeking elegance for their Pittsburgh wedding venue.

Their wedding day was a perfect blend of modern art, raw emotion, and stunning editorial style — everything I love capturing as a documentary and artistic wedding photographer.
