Janna & Matt's RiverFront Engagement Session

When I first talked to Janna on the phone during our phone consultation, I knew she was easy to love. So bubbly, excited for her wedding and full of personality. It’s no wonder she’s a nurse caring for others, her heart is so gigantic. And then I met Matt and their American Bulldog baby, Wynston, at their engagement session. And Matt’s heart is just as big as Janna’s. He’s witty and loving and his personality is full of character. And Wyston, well, you can just tell he’s super duper loved and there’s probably nothing better than a lovable furbaby.

Frolicking the end of summer and beginning of fall evening light was the absoluteeeee best with these two and I even left with some baby books (cue all of the tears). Their hearts are so pure and genuine and I’m so so excited for their Bramblewood wedding next fall!

Love you three!!

Rachel & Kylan, Hartwood Acres Engagement

When I first met Rachel and her mother at our consultation, I knew immediately how much I loved her and her family. I’d followed her on Instagram thereafter and realized we have so much in common. Rachel bakes homemade pies and pasta regularly (I just wish I did this) and loves Gal Meets Glam. Just a few of my fav things to be honest. I’d anticipated meeting Kylan at their engagement session, just knowing how much Rachel and I could commonly share and knowing how much she loved him only to realize Kylan and I basically grew up down the street from one another and it’s likely his dad handed me my diploma when I graduated. Kylan is currently in med school and is equally dedicated to his school and career as he is his relationship with Rachel and watching someone put 100% into each is just so admirable.

It’s funny how God works like that, bringing people into our lives that we can so easily share common ground and relate with. And to be welcomed in to such a beautiful season of their lives is such a beautiful gift. Rachel and Kylan’s love for one another seeps out of their pores and lights them up from the inside out. The love and laughs they shared at the engagement session is just a little taste of the joy their wedding day will be this coming March and I’m so so honored and thrilled to document their best day ever!

Enjoy their beautiful, light filled, summer engagement session at Hartwood Acres (a place special to them) below!<3

Erika and Ken's Engagement

Black Friday in Pittsburgh ended up being quite the opposite. We were blessed with abundant sunshine and instead of shopping, I spent the last hours of sunlight celebrating Erika and Ken’s undeniable love and incredibly sweet season being an engaged couple. The two of them are so down to earth and so easy to be around — I could not be more excited for their summer wedding this July! Love you two!<3
