Ever since I formally began Afternoon Media, I knew I wanted to offer video in some capacity. Fun fact – I actually got my start in wedding video + have a film degree! That’s why I’m super thrilled that this year I’ve added wedding video + Super 8 services to my offerings. During my consultations […]

Jack + Josie’s early October wedding was beautifully autumnal (despite the 80 degree weather) and incredibly fun. Handcrafted details, a cute furry guest of honor, and a SICK streamer exit made for an unforgettable celebration!!! Their day shows that even if you follow a “traditional” wedding structure, there are still so many ways to incorporate […]

Bailey + Kevin’s early fall celebration at The Audrey in Canonsburg, PA was so cool that I could hardly stand it. Except I did…and it was amazing. These two wanted a clean, moody-minimalist vibe for their day that still showcased their personality, and I think they definitely delivered! The color scheme was black and white […]

Ellie + Shane’s sweet summer garden party was nothing short of incredible. From the first time I chatted with them, I knew their aesthetic game would be UNMATCHED. Combine that with the lush August greens + gorgeous manor at Succop Nature Park, bolo ties, dappled light, tear-jerker vows, a funky first dance, Super 8, 35mm […]

Ryley + Sumun’s wedding this summer was a vibrant, lively celebration filled with colorful florals, funky signage, and a boatload of emotional moments – all with the lush botanical background of Phipps Conservatory! R + S truly made the day their own, and their sincerity, goofiness, and pure love for each other is on display […]

While Sadie + Noah discussed their ideas for an engagement session with me, they said they wanted the fun, industrial vibes of Pittsburgh without ‘looking like tourists’. I suggested one of my favorite photo spots in the Strip District – Coop de Ville! It has a huge variety of backdrops and cute activities for couples […]

Kim + Randy’s wedding this May was a super fun, laid-back, and heartfelt celebration. Filled with sweet DIY details, endless margs, KILLER barbecue, a guest appearance by a very good boy, and throwback 2000s bops, K + R’s day had everyone feeling less like a wedding guest and more like you were at a cookout […]

McKenzee + Dillon’s wedding day was a long time coming – and after 6 years of tying the knot, they (finally!!) had their celebration last November. From the 70s retro candlelit vibes of their church ceremony, to their custom Dungeons & Dragons cake topper, this was truly their day, and it was incredible to be […]

The Fahlmans The historic and castle-like grounds of Buhl Mansion Guesthouse & Spa made a perfect backdrop for Doreen and Bobb’s intimate Jazz Age wedding in Sharon, PA (about 70 miles outside of Pittsburgh). With around 40 of their closest family and friends, the couple exchanged vows under a picturesque tent in the mansion gardens, […]
