We can't say enough good things about this wonderful couple! Kailey + Elias reached out to us about doing their engagement session back in the summer of 2016. Both not being from Lehigh Valley they decided to temporally call it home while continuing to pursue their higher education and careers. Finding a local photographer to capture their session was a must and the rest is history. We were thrilled when they contacted us months later to join them and their loved ones in Pittsburgh to celebrate. This was our first time to that area of PA so we were excited for the mini road trip, hotel stay and of course the wedding! Seeing everyone at the Estate was like being with old friends and we instantly started capturing amazing moments. The love, support and happiness that surrounds this couple is evident in every photo. We are so happy we were able to share such a special moment with a group of amazing people. A big congrats to Kailey + Elias and to many years joy!
