Do you have young kids who are obsessed with Legos? Well, if so, you more than likely have been presented with ads for Legoland (whether on social media, YouTube, or in their FREE Lego magazines – YES! You can get a Lego magazine delivered to your kids for FREE!) but did you know there’s not...
Come with us as we surprise our kids with a trip to Legoland New York for opening day 2026 – and somehow keep it a secret the entire drive there.This ended up being one of those days we’ll all remember for a long time. Ever since we visited Legoland New York last summer, our kids...
In honor of Legoland New York opening for the 2026 season TOMORROW, here’s a peek at our time at the park last fall (and don’t tell our kids, but we are springing on them on the biggest surprise EVER tomorrow – stay tuned!) This is our family’s experience spending two days at Legoland in New...

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!
