Wedding: Emily + Eric

Emily and Eric were married on September 29^th, with a ceremony at the Heinz Memorial Chapel and a reception at the Grand Concourse.

Emily and Eric’s Autumn Wedding

This wedding was wonderful right from the start as I photographed Emily seeing her dad for the first time on her wedding day. The light in the house where she was getting ready was really pretty, and I love the way her dress flowed down the stairs.

Then, we headed to the Heinz Chapel, which is always a blast to photograph. The lighting was fun to play with, and we got some bonus time in the church to try out a few new portraits from a different perspective. I have to give a HUGE shout out to my second photographer, Alisa, who always gets such interesting angles. I was glad to have her shots of Heinz Chapel to add to the gallery!

Pittsburgh Wedding Photography

I also loved taking portraits with Emily and Eric on the Smithfield Street Bridge. One of my favorite photos was one that showed the Grand Concourse all lit up as they made their way toward the reception. It was a classic “Pittsburgh” wedding photo!

As beautiful as the venues were, I have to say that Emily’s niece, Leni, very nearly stole the show! She had the best facial expressions throughout the day. Experiencing weddings through the eyes of a kid is funny!

When we got to the reception, Emily and Eric stunned us all with a beautiful entrance down the Grand Concourse stairs. But for as amazing as that was, we all know where their hearts were really set: the donuts! The food at the Grand Concourse was SO GOOD.

Eric & Emily, thank you for asking me to be part of your beautiful wedding. It was such a joy to be your wedding photographer. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness together!
