When Rachael asked me to photograph her wedding, I was ecstatic!! Not only was she my friend, but she was marrying a wonderful man named Ross (insert Friends joke here), and I had a front row seat for the main event!!! Ross and Rachael are both musicians, so it was fitting that they had their wedding ceremony and reception inside a theater here in Pittsburgh…..and what a party it was…..
Ross and Rachael decided to do a “first look” in order to maximize the time they allowed for photos. This makes me very happy. 🙂 I found a private area in the Westin Convention Center Hotel (where they got ready) for them, and it worked out great…
Their families were waiting for them in the lobby….
We started off the day by doing photos at the Convention Center…
The lighting on the water feature underneath the Convention Center was constantly changing colors, so I waited for purple and snapped away!
Ross and Rachael requested that we do photos on one of the many yellow bridges we have here in Pittsburgh…
The New Hazlett Theater is a very unique and versatile venue….and Maria Scheller is FANTASTIC to work with!
The ceremony was hands down one of the most meaningful and beautiful ones I’ve ever witnessed, thanks to their awesome officiant, Craig.
Purple and teal details were everywhere!
I love you, Rachael and Ross. Thank you for having me at the most meaningful day of your lives (so far!). When you have your first baby, I’ll come over to visit and watch it have projectile explosive diarrhea on you (just like when you watched my daughter do it to me 10 years ago). And I’ll laugh. Yes, I just used the term “projectile explosive diarrhea” on a wedding blog. Don’t worry….no one reads anything I write at the bottom of blog posts. Poop. Doody. Poopyhead.
My disclaimer….I’m a serious professional. Seriously. HAHAHA ……
