Alicia & Pat's Wedding at the Amish Door Inn

Alicia & Pat’s Wedding at the Amish Door Inn

We’re not too far from the Cleveland side of Ohio, and I already drove out once to hang out with these two for their engagement session.I was super happy to travel that way again for their laid back wedding at the Amish Door Inn. It was beautiful, and chill, and full of joy all at the same time. They skipped a few traditional reception events, like the first dance, but added some fun things of…

Chris & Megan's Pittsburgh Wedding

If you folks have been following along on instagram or twitterat all, you might remember that I had some crazy back surgery a few months back. That all went pretty well, and I’m back to business as usual around here. But I am WAY behind on the blogging. I know everyone’s moved onto pumpkin spice everythings and boots and sweaters already, but I’m gonna be posting some summer photos. Like these…

You want to take pictures where?

You want to take pictures where?

There are a few decisions to be made when doing a portrait session – what do I wear, what time will the light be best, what time will my kids be most cooperative, what will the KIDS wear, and of course, where do we do them? And you’ve got options, one of which a lot of folks dismiss immediately, but hear me out. We can do portraits in your home. Really.

You don’t have to have a fancy house, or a…

Green Day in Pittsburgh: Music Monday

Green Day in Pittsburgh: Music Monday

I went some 17 years of shooting bands without being able to get approved for Green Day, then I got two in a row. We were already planning to go to the Pittsburgh show, at Peterson Events Center, and then I got a pass at the last minute. This is the first time I’ve ever shot an arena show – I started out taking photos of my husband’s band at VFW halls and holes in the wall, and then moved on to…

Deb & Rick's Traditional Bethel Park Wedding

Deb & Rick’s Traditional Bethel Park Wedding

Last year, I got to photograph Phil and Amanda’s wedding at the art museum in Pittsburgh. This year, I got to photograph Amanda’s mom’s wedding (which is somehow the second time I’ve had a couple recommend me to their parents for their wedding) a little closer to home, in Bethel Park.

I do a lot of weddings in odd spaces – forest clearings, renovated bank buildings, restaurants, backyards – but I…

We took the baby to Disney

We took the baby to Disney

So, again, slow blogger. Last November, we skipped out on doing Thanksgiving at home, and drove down to Florida instead. We have some family in Sarasota, so we stayed with them for a few days and then continued on to Disney for a few more days. We did the whole trip in a van with 6 adults, my 10 year old niece, and our then 17 month old. And it was a blast.

I don’t have any stellar advice for…

Smoke Bombs in the Strip District

Smoke Bombs in the Strip District

Sometimes, I second shoot weddings for other photographers. It’s a fun break for me, because basically the ONLY thing that I’m doing is showing up to take pictures that day. I feel like mostly people picture a photographer spending all of their time doing rad shoots in beautiful locations between jaunts to the nearest Starbucks, but I spent most of my work hours at the computer, in our little…

Johnny is Two

A very happy birthday to my little squish. His first year, I did a little mini portrait session with him every month, which got harder to do over time. Every month, he’d be a little bit more mobile, and once he started walking well… that was when we started doing portraits out in the yard, where he had more space to wander. This time, we expanded a little further, and walked across the bridge…

John & Stephanie's Waterfall Engagement Portraits

John & Stephanie’s Waterfall Engagement Portraits

I remember David Hobby telling a story about a photo he took of an opera singer, in the shower (clothed, folks. It was a very PG photo.) He said that you don’t start in the shower. You start with some easy, comfortable, familiar photos. You build a rapport. Maybe you break for lunch and tell them about your idea and how cool it’ll turn out. After all of that, after your client trusts you to…

Punk Rock Entrepreneur

I can’t believe I’ve never blogged about this here, but I seriously haven’t. The TL;DR is that I wrote a book, and it’s called Punk Rock Entrepreneur. If you want, you can run off and buy it right now.

The slightly longer version is that way back in 2013, I gave a talk at Weapons of Mass Creation Fest in Cleveland called “How Punk Rock Made Me a Better Entrepreneur.” If you have 40ish minutes,…

Alicia & Pat's Ohio Engagement

Alicia & Pat’s Ohio Engagement

Every once in a while, I go on adventures out of state for photos. This time I got to spend some time in Ohio, and meet Alicia and Pat, who are getting married later this month. They actually found me through a friend of theirs who I’d met a few years before at WMC Fest (I end up in Cleveland kind of a lot.) We bonded over Homestar Runnerskits, ended up looking up how much goats cost (not that…
