Valentino’s Bouquets

Posted on by

Hey guys! Here’s your Valentine’s reminder to buy the bouquet. Unless… “if you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it”, as the wise Beyoncé muses. Don’t be like them other jagoffs and grab one after work when you’re buying your milk and chipped ham. Go into a florist, talk to them and walk out with a stunning arrangement. This post is dedicated to all those beautiful details that make each and every wedding unique, special and personalized. As always, thank you for visiting. www.amcgregorphotography.com

Summer Wedding + Winter Reception

Posted on by

Carmen and Angela planned the most intimate wedding ceremony that I ever captured. Carmen’s mom officiated the ceremony while his aunt witnessed and live-captured the service for family and friends. It was so delightful, refreshing and romantic. We met at the Mellon Park Walled Garden in Pittsburgh. The evening summer breezes filled the air with fragrant floral notes and romantic vibes. I was truly honored to be the 5th wheel. They called me a couple days later to invite me to capture their reception at LeMont in mid-December. We were able to capture a few, very cold and windy portraits at the incline before celebrating with their loved ones. As I always say, every wedding is unique and reflects the individuality of the couple. This was on full display with Carmen and Angela’s summer wedding and winter reception.

Late Summer Wedding

Posted on by
Cheers to Erin & Colten

Excitement fills my heart when I hear of a couple’s wedding day plans. I approach every wedding to best capture their unique relationship and Big Day dreams. Erin and Colten just had a great vibe when describing their Love Story. They included everything from historic buildings and an outdoor ceremony to a scotch bar and adorable “flower grannies”. Even though I packed this blog with more photos than usual, I think the best portrait of them is the nocturne. It includes only the props of a candelabra and her bouquet against a wooden backdrop. Colten kisses Erin’s hand as she stares directly into the lens, with a bit of an attitude that declares, “He’s all mine”. Their romantic vows to each other could have been stanzas lifted from a poem by Pablo Naruda. Everything was perfect under the breezes of late summer. Referral Fact: Erin was in her brother’s wedding as a bridesmaid back in 2020. Tyler and Jessica You can view all of Erin and Colten’s wedding photos at Aaron McGregor Photography. Thanks and Cheers!

Celebration at The Barn at Madison

Posted on by

All day wedding ceremonies & receptions that take place in one location have been trending over the last 10 years. In addition to the venues providing separate locations for the bride and groom to get ready, it also gives me extra time to take formals and portraits! Kimberly and David booked The Madison Mansion for the weekend, which gave them plenty of time to decorate the day before their wedding. Kim designed the floral arrangements and decorated the wedding arbor. The three-story venue utilizes the top floor to house the pre-ceremony preparations, the middle floor for the formal dinner and the bottom floor opens as the dance space for the reception.  They held their ceremony on the luscious, green lawn surrounded by large pines, elegant gardens, a rustic, wooden barn and the mansion itself. It was a sweet, intimate wedding celebrated with their immediate family and friends. As always, thanks for your attention! Aaron McGregor Photography

Celebrate Life with Enlargements

Posted on by

The days are long sometimes, but the years are short. This resonates more when you have children. The years between diapers and graduation caps are fleeting. I love getting that memory on social of my kiddo when he was a wee one. What is better? The enlargements I have of him in our home. Missy hired me to capture her maternity session and continued to have me take portraits as her family grew. It must be our obligation as parents to have a tangible record of our children as our families grow. Do yourself a favor, book a portrait session. Thanks for your time! Aaron McGregor Photography
