Kristen and coby are just adorable.

They are having a fun rustic wedding, in an old distillery!  so we met at heartwood acres for their engagement shoot.

i love that it was cold!  really,

it made them super cuddly, and i’m a big fan of cuddly couples.  -tif

Haha! its kinda cute how you spelled it heartwood acres.  Its actually hartwood acres.

I have always loved hartwood acres. I thought i would get married there one day.

i also just assumed i would be rich enough to do so.

you know what assuming does right? :) – jonathan

ha ha, assuming it make you have your wedding reception in a gymnasium with pizza!

good day overall though.  -tif

snow makes things so difficult. I am glad it doesn’t make things ugly though.

thank you two so much! Marching through at least two feet of snow wasn’t easy. – jonathan

i was super excited to see that you came prepared for the weather!

unlike me who just work a pair of sneakers- jonathan

HEY! whats that in the tree?

oh its just my wife :) – jonathan

…at least i wore boots.  -tif

kristen has a great smile and laughs constantly. which make our jobs so much easier.  -tif

I am really excited by this picture you took tiffany.

i didn’t see the trees and all the potential they could be.- jonathan

there is literaly a courtyard here that is bordered by tree’s and they are facing a castle.

this is where i thought i would get married.  outside in the grass facing the mansion. – jonathan

jonathan, i love this one.  the snow is just perfect.  -tif

thanks tiff! and kristen you look awesome here!

soooooooo  amazing of you two to lay on a snowy bench in the freezing weather.- jonathan

thanks kristen and coby for making the day great and for braving the aftermath of snowpocolypse!

We shall see ya soon!  can’t wait!

We had planned to shoot with morgan and solo earlier in the month,

but it just happened to be the biggest snow storm ever.

So we had to reschedule later in the month, when we could actually get out of our houses.

Our shoot was pretty short too, because solo had to get to work, but i think we pumped this one out pretty quick.  -tif

Toyota!!

Toyota is what Solo would shout out every time one drove by  -jonathan

the fun part is, he never told us why?!  -tif

i like this pic you took tiff.  you should think about doing this for a living :) – jonathan

hey, thanks -tif

please note how absolutely filth and run down this truck is.

please also know that i eat pad Thai out of this thing on semi regular basis.

i can believe eat food made in the back of this truck… – jonathan

the egg rolls are good too!  -tif

we have come to realize that post snowpocalypse, Pittsburgh is a hard place to shoot in.

there is nothing but filthy slushy snow everywhere.

this has nothing to do with the picture..

this was just a cold wet shoot!

- jonathan

these are really cool, while i was shooting the two of them together, you snapped some singles.

it’s fun to see what your shooting, while i’m off in my own world.  -tif

this pic would be pretty sweet if 1917 actually meant something.- jonathan

yeh, sweet idea, great use of the so-called “anti- refection”  -tif

i love this shot of yours tiff!

Morgan, you look great!- jonathan

this is my favorite of yours, jonathan, the wind in morgans hair is so cute!  -tif

haha! this was the end of our a abbreviated shoot!

it was sooooo cold out.

it would rain and then snow and then rain and then slush would fall from the skys and t

hen the wind would blow and then the cycle would repeat itself- jonathan

Solo, you did great  in this weather for a man only two years out of west africa!

although i’m not sure blue was your best color :) -jonathan

cant wait to shoot your wedding! it sounds like its gonna be a blast. -tif
