HAPPY FEBRUARY FAVORITES – PART 2/4 Continuing on in my series of “favorite” images from 2024 (if you missed my favorite roller coaster images that dropped on Tuesday, go back and see those HERE) – Since today is Valentine’s Day EVE – I figured what better way to celebrate the LOVE holiday than with my...
It’s time for FEBRUARY FAVORITES! Once upon a time, I used to rush and scramble to pull my favorite images from the past year together in time to post in January. But in 2019, I said: “NAH” and decided it was completely fine to wait until February to post my favorite images – and it...

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!
