The Pennsylvanian wedding- Karen and Ben
Karen and Ben are good people. The kind of people that make things better; by their actions, their outlooks, their attitudes. I'm not sure what that chances are that two people like that should happen to meet, fall madly in love, and decide to get married, but I'm glad they did. I'm also glad they chose me to photograph it, because it was a beautiful, emotional day, that -despite a few bumps along the way- turned out perfectly.
A few portraits of Karen. Isn't she stunning? (For the record, she is also quite charming, incredibly sweet, and full of grace, but those traits don't come across as well in photos.) :
The ceremony was held at Smithfield United Church in downtown Pittsburgh. I think the way Karen is looking at Ben as they exchange their vows is a pretty good summation of how they feel about one another:
How cute is the flowergirl? Seriously.
A few portraits after the ceremony:
Karen's long veil was perfect for getting some dramatic images like this one:
One of my faves:

First dance:
Ben showing off a few moves. Gotta give props to DJ Jeremy Ganss for another fabulous evening of entertainment.
I kept hearing about what fabulous dancers Ben and his brother are (and they didn't disappoint), but I have to say, Karen held her own on the dance floor:
Karen and Ben had a photobooth set up during the reception for their guests to enjoy. This is such a fun idea for receptions; I love that your guests leave with some fun photos of themselves from your wedding, plus the bride and groom get fun photos of all of their guests. Win-win.
Karen and Ben, it was an honor and a delight to photograph your wedding! Thank you so much for having Jaci, Eileen and me along.
