Well, I spent last night reading back thru Leander’s birth story, his one & two year birthday posts & let’s just say, Mama had quite the moment. My sweet little man turns THREE years old today (and I can hardly believe it). You’ll notice (as I pointed out last year): we still don’t have baseboards...
I’m a bit at a loss for words, as today is Braelynn’s 3rd birthday. What? How is that even possible? Wasn’t she just born, like, yesterday? So, today we celebrated. We celebrated 3 whole years of this little ray of sunshine in our lives. We celebrated that we’ve survived 3 whole years as parents. We...
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!
