"And can you feel the love tonight?
It is where we are
It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That we got this far
And can you feel the love tonight
How it's laid to rest?
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best"

—Elton John, Can you feel the love tonight

The Wedding of Joseph & Rachael


Joseph and Rachael were married at the National Aviary in Pittsburgh, PA on a beautiful colorful fall day in October. I've shot one other wedding at the Aviary, and it's always such a pleasure to work there. They started the day with a first look followed by portraits. These two were naturals in front of the camera and Joseph attributed his time in drama club to his ease at being photographed. They were very sweet together and their ceremony space was beautiful. After the ceremony, they held the reception inside and their guests got to get pictures taken with a very well-behaved penguin. They had an ice cream bar, which was super fun and the catering was delicious. After their initial first dance, Rachael had an outfit change and I loved her reception look. Their wedding was so much fun, here is a highlight of some favorite images.
