Downtown Pittsburgh Engagement | Emily + Scott
Emily and Scott live in Kentucky, but they are originally from Pittsburgh. So when they came back in town for wedding planning and the fourth of July, they wanted their engagement portraits to have an iconic Pittsburgh feel. We bounced around a couple of ideas, including Downtown, the Strip District, and the North Shore, but we eventually decided to take a walk along the river and feature some of the famous bridges. I don’t think you could ask for a more perfect setting for a summer engagement sessions- a great cityscape, the sun setting over the three rivers, and the cutest couple ever. Seriously. I couldn’t put them anywhere for two minutes before they’d start laughing at something, and forget about posing, because we were having far too much fun for that. (Give me someone who can work the lyrics of the Safety Dance into conversation, and we’re bound to hit it off!)
Emily & Scott are getting married this September in the Cranberry area, and if the couple of hours I spent with them are anything to go by, it’s going to be a fantastic time. Many thanks to them for fitting me into their busy return home & I am definitely looking forward to September.

I love just a casual stroll with no specific location in mind to shoot. Those the best shoots where you discover something and just spend a bit of time here and there to capture special moments! Lovely job here!
This engagement is awesome! I loved going through photos, they got better and better as I scrolled down! You did a great job capturing these!
They look very relaxed, great job! I love the b&w shot of them under the bridge.
I love Pittsburgh; I live over near Philly, so I have taken a few vacations out to the Burgh. You found a really nice location and did an awesome job on their photos!
What a cute couple! I love how relaxed and casual everything looks — and it looks like they had a lot of fun!
Really loving the shots near the end backlit of them among the trees. Nice work Shell!
[…] post these! Athough it hardly seems like long ago that I posted their engagement photos. Emily and Scott started their day at the Hotel Marriott, had a lovely ceremony at Mars Alliance Church, and ended […]
