Pittsburgh Wedding Vendors Rallying to Help Noah's Event Venue Couples

The news of Noah’s Event Venues closing last Friday has left many couples with no venue for their wedding.

There is something ethereal about fall weddings, and this one is no exception. Sarah’s inspiration for the wedding was an enchanted fairy tale forest in blush and burgundy with sea foam green, and the fall foliage at Lingrow Farm provided the perfect background to bring her vision to life.

Why I Am a Supporter of Wedding Boudoir Photography

Why I Am a Supporter of Wedding Boudoir Photography

Boudoir celebrates the beauty of now. Who we are, in this moment, the strengths and the flaws. I want to talk a little about a few myths about the practice and why I think that it is far more than racy photos or anything else its detractors might call it.
