Insights & Stories
Welcome to our photography blog, where we share insights from behind the camera, celebrate recent work, and offer guidance for clients preparing for their own photography experiences. Whether you're planning a wedding, considering a portrait session, or simply appreciate beautiful imagery, we hope you'll find inspiration here.
Planning a wedding or engagement session involves countless decisions. We regularly share advice to help couples prepare for their photography experience. Topics include what to wear for engagement sessions, creating realistic wedding day timelines, choosing the best locations around Pittsburgh, and getting the most from your photography investment.
One of the most common questions we receive concerns timing. The quality of natural light dramatically affects photographs, which is why we often recommend scheduling key moments during golden hour, the period shortly after sunrise or before sunset when light is soft and warm. Understanding how light affects your images helps you make better planning decisions.
Photography involves much more than pressing a shutter button. We share behind-the-scenes glimpses of our process, from pre-wedding consultations and location scouting to the post-processing work that transforms raw images into finished photographs. These stories illustrate the care and expertise that goes into every project we undertake.
With each client's permission, we share selected images from recent sessions and weddings. These features showcase our current work, highlight the beautiful venues and locations around Pittsburgh, and provide inspiration for couples planning their own celebrations. Seeing real weddings helps future clients envision possibilities for their own events.
The photography industry continuously evolves. We stay current with trends in both wedding styles and photography technology, sharing relevant updates that might interest our clients. From new album designs to emerging wedding traditions, we keep you informed about developments that could enhance your experience.
For the latest photography tips and trends, industry resources like Rangefinder Magazine provide excellent professional perspective. We value continuing education and bring that knowledge to benefit our clients.
