Oh springtime engagements, they are just so lovely! Downtown Steubenville, Ohio has become one of my favorite places to photograph engagement sessions! There’s such charm and character to this small city which has been my home for 11 years now! The historic part of Fourth Street is beautiful and provides such a great array of […]

On probably the most perfect, sunny and just plain gorgeous spring day we meet up with Monica and Mitchell at his family’s farm just outside of Steubenville, OH for their engagement session.  The weather was incredibly perfect: bright sunny sky, around 70 degrees and no wind…the perfect formula for glowy sunset photos!  I love shooting […]

With the smell of cherry blossoms in the air and the sun peeking out of  from behind the clouds, we met Teresa and Daniel  for their engagement session on the campus of Franciscan University in Steubenville, Ohio.  These two met at this university while they were students though throughout their time at college they were […]

In the midst of this pandemic, God can be found. We found Him in the smiles, laughter and loved shared by this sweet couple. Matthew and I spent the afternoon earlier this month with Sarah and Jacob at Friendship Park in Smithfield, OH for their spring engagement session. And I can quite honestly say, this […]

You know when you meet someone and you are instantly inspired by them? Their presence gives you peace and joy, their story gives you hope and their lives challenge you to live better? That is exactly how Matthew and I felt after meeting Katie and Aaron. These two have an INCREDIBLE story and it is a testament to God’s faithfulness.

This shoot was SO MUCH FUN. I collaborated with some awesome small businesses to put together a styled engagement shoot with a gorgeous couple!! Eve and Nick are engaged and I was so pumped when they agreed to be my models for this shoot!

Julie and Eyad were such a joy to work with! We met on a fall evening on the campus of Franciscan University of Steubenville for their engagement session and I loved chatting with them about what they do and where they are from! Julie is from close by, just across the river in Weirton, WV but Eyad is from a little further away…….Jerusalem! How cool is that?!? I told them that it’s the one place in the world that I MUST go to before I die! I’ve never been and it’s at the top of my bucket list!

These two have the sweetest love story….they are high school sweethearts who grew up in the same town, went to college together and now they are getting MARRIED!! They have been together for 8 years and are so so sweet. When they got engaged, Leo posted a photo and wrote “She didn’t believe me when I told her I was gonna marry her when we were 14”…..how CUTE is that?!!?!?!

You know its a fantastic session when you’re shooting and just freaking out about 1) your beautiful couple and 2) the perfect light!! And then you get home and can’t wait to start editing!! Guys, this session has some of my most favorite pictures I’ve ever taken! Seriously, I can’t stop scrolling through Deb and Mike’s post!!

You know when you meet someone, even over social media, and you instantly know you could be best friends with them? That’s how I felt when Brianna first messaged me about photographing her wedding next June. When we met them in downtown Pittsburgh for their engagement session, I just KNEW we would be the perfect fit for them and their wedding! They are a joyful and genuine couple who love the Lord and each other so deeply. They were SUCH a dream to photograph!
