Don & Jamie

On a beautiful snowy day in December, Don and Jamie were married at Holy Spirit Church. The day was absolutely wonderful and I had the honor of working with Dino Bovo, one of my favorite photographers. We started at the church, and enjoyed getting to know the happy couple during the pre ceremony shoot.

The ceremony went great and we headed off to the reception at South Hills Country Club. Dino and the wedding party stayed at the church for photos, but I headed out to set up the projector for a special parent dance slideshow. Jamie's mom had contacted me secretly through the planning process and asked me to create a slideshow of pictures to be projected during the Father Daughter and Mother Daughter dances. It was a wonderful idea... and although the cat was let out of the bag, it still turned out great and the guests enjoyed the added touch.

This group was dancing well into the night, I'm sure. They were spectacular to work with and I thank you, Don and Jamie, for allowing me to be a part of your special day! It was special to me, because Jamie was instrumental in answering some "home building" questions for me, as we started the process, because they had just been through it! Thanks again for everything.

Cory & Jennifer

Cory and Jennifer were married in December on a beautiful, snowy day at the Resurrection Church in Brookline. It was snowing pretty hard for the start of their ceremony, but it left behind a beautiful blanket of snow for the rest of the day. We did a little pre-ceremony video with both Cory and Jennifer and then the ceremony began. We had the honor and privilege of working with Joanna Fassinger for this wedding and are thankful we decided to tag a long for the photo session afterward.

We did some family and wedding party shots at the church and then headed to PPG Plaza for some photos at the ice rink! It was amazing and as cold as it was, you would have never seen it from these two love-birds!

Then off to the reception at the Youghiogheny Country Club. I love this place. It is beautiful, and welcomed us with a fire roaring in the entryway fireplace! We thawed out from the photo session and the wedding party entered and the night was a blast from there! We had yet another reunion with Christy and Chris, who were married in October 2007, and enjoyed the company of all the friends and family of Cory and Jennifer. Congratulations on a beautiful winter wedding and blessings for a happy marriage!

Here we go Steeleres!
