Andy Warhol Museum Surprise Pittsburgh Wedding

March 22, 2020

This Warhol Museum Pittsburgh Wedding is one for the book! I’ve been photographing these guys for 5 years now, and so I knew them well enough to know that their wedding would be unique and overflowing with love. What I couldn’t have expected was that Amanda and Gj would fake an elopement in NYC and surprise their family with a wedding in the city. Everyone and I mean EVERYONE that attended their wedding was expecting to show up for a reception, and that alone. When they arrived at The Andy Warhol Museum buses were there to take the families on a “tour of the city”, because many of the guests were from out of town". Where the buses actually took them, was the church where the couple would exchange their vows! The joy, and shock, and tears were so REAL y’all! Exhale Events did such an amazing job pulling off their wedding day seamlessly and the details by the amazing vendors (listed at the end of this blog) were beyond perfect!

Dreamy Bohemian Wedding at Linden Hall

August 27, 2019

BethErin + Ryan

“Absolutely PHENOMENAL! We chose Caitlin and her team for our wedding for photography and videography after they shot our engagement session. They went above and beyond our wildest expectations!!! The whole process from beginning to end was a complete breeze, they are so fun to work with and made us all feel so comfortable. All photos are such high quality, which was so important to me when choosing a photographer. The turn around time was so fast- I’m talking the following week after the wedding. Now that’s great customer service! They were able to capture all our of personalities perfectly! My favorite thing about the photos was that they took the time to capture little things that might have been overlooked or unnoticed with the craziness of the day, it’s so nice to be able to see those moments. Our video is amazing!! The editing is spectacular, such high quality, and it all flowed together so well! They also provided us with a shortened media video to share on social media, which was so thoughtful.I love that we will have that to relive our day over and over again.“

Botanical Garden Wedding in Pittsburgh

January 25, 2018

There was a line in the bride’s vows that really struck me, and one that (I didn’t realize at the time) would set the tone for the entire evening. “… I promise that when our world starts spinning and our breath begins to shorten, to take your hand, go outside, and look up at the stars.” Macae and Ron’s wedding, set under a clear top tent shimmering with twinkle lights, was nothing short of magical. From the long white candles on the farmhouse tables to the glossy gold mirrors with handwritten menus, every corner reflected off of the next. Oh, and these two… the electricity between them couldn’t go unseen… a spark that was never-ending. Enjoy these moments from their special day, it truly was one-of-a-kind.

From the Bride:

I found Caitlin through the graces of social media, bored on our couch on a Saturday night, searching #pittsburghweddingphotographer on Instagram. As you can suspect, there were thousands of posts. All beautiful, many captured the look I was going for, but then, amongst the grid of flowers and tuxedos was a bride, standing alone on a long stone paved path, looking over her shoulder.. So elegant. So pure. It reminded me of a photograph that my grandmother keeps on her nightstand from her wedding day and I often wondered what bridal picture of mine would stand the test of the time. THIS PICTURE of this complete stranger was exactly how I wanted to be remembered. I knew I had to contact the photographer responsible with creating such magic.

Long story short, we booked Caitlin the week after for both our engagement session and wedding.
Engagement Session: Because I’m a big believer in good karma, I booked our engagement session for the dead of winter thinking that my fiancé and I would run around a field of snow and the pictures would look like a scene from a Christmas movie. Good news, the pictures were totally Hollywood-worthy but HOLY HECK, was it freezing. I knew we chose the right photographer when on a single degree (YEP SINGLE DEGREE) day, she was ready for anything. Caitlin spotted a stream that would be a great picture opp but was barricaded by a fence. She asked if we were up for it and because I just knew the final product would result in a great Save the Date wedding photo, all three of us climbed the fence and out and onto a rock so the freezing ice-coated water sparkled behind us. It was GOLD.

My fiancé hates getting his picture taken and Caitlin made us both feel so comfortable. Our photos turned out exactly how I imagined – flirty, fun, and truly showcased the excitement for this next chapter of our lives.

Boudoir Shoot: I didn’t book this originally because um… the idea of it is SCARY… but after meeting Caitlin and her ability to capture the simple beauty of people, and things, I thought – “Why the heck not! Eating all this kale should result in something!” I chose to do the boudoir shoot the day before our wedding. You definitely think I’m crazy but it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Not only did I have my hair and makeup done for our rehearsal dinner later that night but I have never felt more comfortable walking into our wedding pics. We shot the pictures in Caitlin’s studio which was styled with a beautiful white bed with a green garland draped in the background. If Pinterest did boudoir (maybe they do, I am nervous to search) this would be it. Trust me, book it.

Now, the big day! We booked Caitlin and her assistant, Courtney, for 10 hours. Both arrived when we were getting ready and captured every special moment. I’m serious. They were EVERYWHERE and nowhere at the same time. They blended with our family and friends so much so that I never noticed them but the end results were like they had a camera next to us – capturing moments that you think you can only describe… but alas, we have tangible evidence that they happened.

They truly captured magic. I know I know, so corny to say but when I looked through the final pictures (which arrived 1.5 months after the wedding, a record I hear compared to other photographers!) tears came to my eyes. She captured memories w we can't wait to share with our children and our children’s children. She truly captured our love and we will be forever grateful.

Mr. & Mrs. Smith | Pittsburgh Wedding | PA Wedding Photographer

July 4, 2017

It was clear from their engagement session that this couple was intrinsically joyful and liked to have fun. So, to say that looked forward to their wedding day would be an understatement. I quickly lost track of how many times Michael said, he had the most beautiful bride, and couldn't agree more. I hope you all enjoy these moments as much as we did. Their day was one to remember!

Until next time.

Sam and Edwin had me smiling ear to ear all day.
