Pittsburgh Botanic Garden Wedding Pictures

Favorite Family Moment:

During our family portraits time we had some difficulty locating Megan’s grandfather. We went ahead and did the photos that we could, and later in the evening we wanted to make sure we had wedding pictures with him! When I found Megan and her grandfather, they were talking together and she was holding on to his arm. It was so sweet to see, because I could truly tell that she cherished the moments she spent talking with him, and he had a huge smile on his face.

Vibrant Wedding Style:

Megan’s bridesmaids were all in different shades of blush, and I absolutely loved the minx-and-match style. On top of that, the florals by Mt. Lebanon Floral were gorgeous and perfect for a wedding at the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden. Airy, summery, and happy! The long family-style tables brought all of the guests together under the tent, and instead of large centerpieces, small vases of flowers lined the middles of the tables. It was classic and modern, but also whimsical and garden-friendly.

Our Favorite Wedding Photo:

Later in the evening, the sun was setting over the back hills surrounding the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden. I knew I would love to capture some portraits of Megan and James in that beautiful, golden light, so I asked if they’d be interested. They agreed, and we sped across the street to a pretty little spot with great light. They held each other close, swayed with the music playing from the barn, kissed, and then danced their way back to the party. My favorite picture from this time together is when James laid a little kiss right on Megan’s shoulder.
