Pittsburgh Wedding Photography at St. Joan of Arc Church and Rolling Hills Country Club

Sarah and Mike were married one month ago today in a beautiful ceremony at St. Joan of Arc Church in Pittsburgh’s South Hills. This is my last wedding to photograph this season and I can’t think of a nicer one to wrap up 2012. A big thanks to Alex and Michelle who started at Sarah’s parents’ home where she and her bridesmaids were getting ready. They did an awesome job documenting everything before I met up with them at the church. I really like the images of Sarah’s dog in a dress and her flower girls playing dress up in heels.

Pittsburgh Wedding Photographers at Claysville Wedding

This is the second part of two posts about Heidi and Aaron’s wedding in Claysville, Pa. I mentioned that we went to a nearby pond for a mini shoot after the ceremony. Here are some favorites from that session.

Instead of “cheese” we said “meatballs” because the guys were hungry and Aaron was telling them it wouldn’t be long before they’d be back at the reception where they could sink their teeth into some meatball sandwiches and other delicious catering by The Spring House.

I really like this one. It’s nice getting some time to work with just the bride and groom after the bridal party shots are out of the way.

I like the ripples in the water coming from them dipping their toes.

This is my favorite of the day. I love that the wind cooperated and blew Heidi’s hair away from her face.

They are an outdoorsy couple and Heidi found this awesome cake topper with a black lab to boot!

Pittsburgh Wedding Photographers at Claysville Wedding: Part One

Heidi and Aaron were married last Saturday at her family’s home in Claysville, Pa.  What really surprised me about this wedding, is that the groom and I graduated from high school together!  Heidi booked her wedding over the phone as she is out of town—when her fiance’s name came up I told her that it ringed a bell, but we figured the chances were slim.  What a nice surprise to find that it really was Aaron!

This post is part one of two posts from their wedding. The main colors of the wedding were royal blue with lavender as an accent.

This portrait was taken right after a mini rain storm cleared. It was such a relief for Heidi and her family that they could stick with their plans to hold the ceremony outside.

This photo was taken moments after Heidi’s dad gave her away. I just love her expression.

After the ceremony, the bridal party hoped on a bus to go to the other end of their property for some photos by the pond. Here is the first from that session.
