Justin & Abbey

Oh friends, these two! Can I tell you about these two? Justin and Abbey are a couple of beautiful humans. Abbey stepped out of the car with that FIERCE red lipstick, and I knew we were in for a fun hour together.

Sunset is my absolute favorite time for photo shoots. They call it "golden hour", and I will now beg all of my families and couples to book photo shoots in this perfect hour before sunset. In these last minutes of daylight, the sun decides to completely show off, and I am absolutely obsessed with the way it kisses everyone in photos. Justin and Abbey are certainly no exception. As we ran around Mellon Park in Pittsburgh, I didn't dare set my camera down for a second! 

Justin and Abbey have been married a little over a year now, and when coworkers asked them for the reasoning behind this photo shoot, they joked about pretending to be expecting (they're not!). It's not quite their anniversary, and they aren't necessarily celebrating any big milestones. But if you ask me, it's all the little moments that matter most. I don't care if you've been married 1 hour, 365 days, or 14.6 years - photos together are a beautiful way to commemorate the big moments and the small. 

Well, anyway, I'm a big fan of telling stories with photos, so I'll be quiet now so you can gawk over these 2...
