Rain is always a touchy thing on wedding days, but as a Pittsburgh wedding photographer you have to roll with the punches.  It was raining on and off all day on Mike and Raeann’s wedding day but being in western PA you have to expect this kind of weather.

But, who cares!  I don’t.  Rain or no rain – I’ll get those important photos!

Mike & Raeann had a beautiful wedding at Blueberry Hill Park in Franklin Park.  It was such an honor to be a part of their special day.  I see love in all my couples but the one thing I’ve always noticed about this couple is the way that Mike looks at Raeann.  There is so much love and affection in his gaze, and it always makes me smile.  As a wedding photographer, I’m always looking at those little things that you might not notice, and that for me, with this couple, was Mike’s love.

I enjoyed all the photo opportunities at Blueberry Hill Park and Raeann gave me tons of time to do their bridal portraits, which is always an added bonus.  I wish I had this much time with every couple!  Raeann had expressed to me a few times that photos of her and Mike were the most important thing of the day.  Inside I screamed, “YES!!”

Here are just a few photos from their wedding day.

See that rain starting to fall outside the pavilion?  Well, it was decision time on whether to move the ceremony inside…they did. I felt so bad for Raeann – I know she had her heart set on having her wedding outside.

First kiss inside the activity center.

Of course, at the start of their ceremony, the rain stopped but it was too late to move everything back outside.  But, I was very thankful that the rain stopped shortly so we could take their photos!

I love this ring shot!  Love seeing those smiles.This is such a cute photo for me.  We always have fun with our couples with tons of laughs and this is one of those moments.

Well, they didn’t have their ceremony in the pavilion but I was certainly going to take them back there to get some photos for them.  

Raeann was a beautiful princess bride!

Oh and the rain starts again….  a quick kiss and it’s time to head into the reception.

I love to capture emotion.  Raeann’s mom gave a lovely toast at the wedding that was full of tears, laughs and love.  

Some details from their day..

Thanks, Mike and Raeann for letting us be a part of your day.  We enjoyed every moment shared with you, your friends and family.  We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness in your new journey together.  Much love to you both!
