I am so excited to be featured on Borrowed & Blue today!

You’ll probably remember Erica & Chris’s elegant & romantic wedding from earlier this summer! It was a day hemmed by storms and hot & humid barely scratches the surface of describing the temperature outside! The weather was predicting storms all afternoon, but we pressed forward & were greeted by beautiful, sunny skies! Only after we arrived to the reception & got everyone inside did the sky break & the rain poured down!

Erica & Chris’s wedding day was packed full of elegant details & romantic moments, but I think my favorite memory of the entire day was at the reception. The dollar dance started and literally every single guest (all 200+ in attendance) got up and got into line to dance with Erica. The line wrapped the whole way around the room! I have never seen such a large group of people, who loved the bride so much, that they were happy to stand in line for 30+ minutes for a 30 second dance with her! Erica was shocked too, as about half way through, she looked around the room and noticed how long the line still was & she gave me an “omigoodness, does this line ever end?” look!

Congratulations to Erica & Chris and their feature on Borrowed & Blue! And special shout out to all of the amazing vendors who worked tirelessly to make their wedding day incredible!

Hi Im Kara Abbey a Wedding Photographer in Irwin PA

Hi! I'm Kara!

Welcome to my blog!

I'm a Pittsburgh-based wedding photographer and wedding content creator with a love for storytelling, both on wedding days and beyond.

I've been part of the wedding industry since 2009, documenting 250+ wedding days and helping couples preserve the moments, big and small, that make their day uniquely theirs.

When I'm not working a wedding, you'll probably find me creating videos for my personal YouTube channel, The Adventuring Abbeys, where my family and I share our love of amusement parks, roller coasters, and travel.

Around here, you'll find wedding inspiration and behind-the-scenes content, family adventures, amusement park visits, travel stories, and a little bit of everyday life.

I'm so glad you're here!
