Caitlin + Kevin: Married | Johnstown, PA Wedding Photographer

Caitlin + Kevin were married on a beautiful spring day at St. Benedict's Church with a lively + fun reception following at the Frank J. Pasquerilla Conference Center in Johnstown, PA.  I was so excited to hear that Caitlin went to high school with one of our 2013 brides, saw her photos (fell in love!), and subsequently booked us for her wedding when it was her turn to walk down the aisle.  This is the best way for us to connect with a future bride + groom!  So I couldn't have been more anxious for her and Kevin's big day to arrive.

We first met them when we traveled to Pittsburgh for their engagement session.  They live and work in the city so it made perfect sense to document where their love blossomed.  But they decided to head back to Kevin's hometown to say I Do.  From the moment I first met them, and throughout our many email exchanges, it was quite obvious to me that Caitlin + Kevin are both incredibly sweet, kind hearted and just all around a wonderful couple.  Then when I photographed their session and witnessed first hand their personal interactions,  it solidified my original notion and I knew their day was going to be a great one.  It certainly lived up to just that!  Caitlin had this peaceful calm about her, even though she may have been a little anxious for the days' events, she never let me believe that.  From opening her gift from Kevin to getting in her dress, she conducted herself with such gracefulness, which is such a beautiful trait.  Likewise, when Kevin opened his personalized gifts from Caitlin, he was overwhelmed with her thoughtfulness and, again proved to me what a perfect couple they are.  The entire day was filled with love, happiness, and pure joy - just the way it should be.

Congratulations again, Caitlin + Kevin!  We are so thankful to have witnessed the kind love you share for each other and even more thankful that we were able to document this wonderful day for you.  We wish you nothing but the best!

I love that Caitlin's wedding day look took her Mom's breath away.

 We took one second for a bridal portrait and I'm so glad we did.  This really epitomizes her calm and incredible beauty.

After the ceremony, we traveled to the beautiful campus of St. Francis University.  It rained during their ceremony, but by the time we finished the family portraits and made the trip, the sun broke through the clouds and they were blessed with the most amazing light.

Caitlin so knew how to work that beautiful cathedral veil!
