Jessica Johnston Photography

July 9, 2009 // weddings

Last weekend we were able to photograph the gorgeous, bubbly Melissa and the love of her life-Marty. We were so honored that they picked us to photograph this day for them! It was so special b/c Melissa's sister is the fantastic Laura Harrison-the other half of the fantabulous Ben Harrison Photography in Grand Rapids. Anyway, a sneak peek for Marty + Melissa! You really can't help but fall in love with them and their amazing family. More to come soon! Enjoy.

Get a load of these eyes!

the best sparkler exit ever:

and this photo just rocks my world right now!:

Melisa + Ryan's gorgeous winter Pittsburgh wedding

May 22, 2009 // weddings

A million years ago in February we traveled to Pittsburgh to photograph Melisa + Ryan's gorgeous wedding at Carnegie Hall. We had a blast-and the wedding was a photographers delight in so many ways.

We have been bad bloggers since with this new blog we were still trying to figure out how we wanted to present our images. We have decided to go back to our original method of showcasing bigger images since our loyal blog followers enjoyed that best.

Enjoy!

Venue: Carnegie Hall, Pittsburgh
Dress: Monique Lhuillier (custom)

Liz + Ken's wedding at The Ritz Carlton Dearborn

April 15, 2009 // weddings

Way back in December (which still feels like yesterday!) we were asked to photograph Liz + Ken's gorgeous-intimate 20 guest mid-week wedding at the Ritz Carlton. We were more than happy to oblige. We were also thrilled when Style Me Pretty did a 8 set feature on their wedding last month.

You can check out their wedding on SMP here:
