So, after a busy (but...
Last week, our sweet little girl turned SEVEN years old!I’m not sure why, but for some reason, 7 seems SO much older & more grown up than 6. I mean, under normal circumstances: a birthday arrives & people ask, “Well, do you FEEL older?” and the answer is no, we always feel exactly the same....
Today our precious, sweet girl turns the BIG 7 years old!! Is it just me, or does 7 feel so grown up? Like, where did my little girl go? I feel like overnight she went from being “little” to being “big” & I can’t quite handle it. I absolutely adore everything she is & is...
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!
