Amanda & Ben * North Side E-Session
It’s a huge compliment when I get personal referrals, which are the lifeblood of my business. Amanda is actually Rebekah’s cousin and that probably seems like a no-brainer of a booking, but it’s not! (more…)

I had a hunch from the get-go that Jess & Jim were going to be a fun couple to work with. Their e-session confirmed that for sure! Not only do these two look great through the lens, but they were fun and hilarious…joking around about every little thing, just as we do here at JMP. (more…)

Several months ago I ran a WeddingChannel.com “groupon” deal for 50% off engagement sessions. The feedback from the program was great and Judy & Brandon were among those to take advantage of the crazy low session rate.

With only a handful of solo photography sessions under my belt, I felt very honored to be asked to photograph such a unique moment.

There are few houses as interesting as the mansion at Hartwood Acres. When Katie and Steve suggested this as a location for their engagement session, I jumped on the chance in a heartbeat! We originally planned to do this shoot in the evening but go rained out, and I’m so glad that happened! The mansion looked amazing in the late-morning light of a beautiful Fall day in Pittsburgh.
As per usual, Katie and Steve were a little apprehensive at first as they are not used to being photographed by a nutty photographer, so we eased into the shoot by slowly walking around the mansion, capturing frames here and there. By the end of the session the dynamic had shifted to a fun morning hanging out, Steve was pumping out creative ideas and they even trusted me enough to climb into the huge oak tree that reside in the “backyard.” (more…)
