Featured! Daily Dog Tag

Best Dog - Chocolate Lab at a Wedding

I am beyond excited to be featured on The Daily Dog Tag today!

I have photographed a good heaping handful of dogs on wedding days. Dogs that have simply attended their owner’s weddings, dogs that have played the role of “ring bearer”, and dogs that have played the role of “best dog”. Almost every single one of the weddings I have photographed with a dog in it though, have been outdoors.

There is only one wedding (and it was a Catholic Mass to boot) that I have photographed that allowed a dog to attend the church ceremony – and that’s Megan & Anwar’s wedding.

You’ll have to admit: Copper must be a pretty special pup to win the heart of the priest over. And not only that – you know he has to be well behaved. I mean, I knew that Copper was a perfect pup when he came along for Megan & Anwar’s engagement pictures (and he was allowed in the wrestling room). But I could not believe that they had gotten permission for him to attend the ceremony.

Needless to say: of course The Daily Dog Tag featured Copper on their blog today! I mean, duh.

Congratulations to Copper (and Megan & Anwar) for their feature on The Daily Dog Tag!
And a special shout-out to all of the amazing vendors who worked tirelessly to make the entire wedding day incredible (but especially the church who so graciously allowed a couple who is obsessed with their dog to bring him along as they pledged their lives to each other!)

CEREMONY VENUE: St. Patrick’s Church in Binghamton, NY // RECEPTION VENUE: Holiday Inn in Binghamton, NY // DJ: C.S.E. Services, Nate Richardson in Waymart, PA // CAKE: Baked! by Camille in Endicott, NY // FLORIST: Endicott Florists in Endicott, NY

If you’d like to see more of Copper, he’s in the highlights of Megan & Anwar’s engagement session & wedding blog posts I wrote, you can find those here & here! Yep, he’s pretty much famous.

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!
