I’m on a roll, dear Reader; I keep getting all these wonderful couples! Shawn and Ross are such a pleasure to be around; I knew I liked them from the moment we met. Their intimate wedding ceremony and reception were held at the lovely Mansion at Maple Heights in Shadyside. The bridal suite is awesome – so spacious and full of natural light.

I like this image by Jenny; you can see the dress in the mirror.

Such beautiful beadwork on Shawn’s dress.

Great shot of Shawn’s dad by Jenny…
and nice wide shot of the ceremony taken by Jenny, who cheerfully crawled through some bushes and peeked over the fence to get this angle for me. :-)
And another one by Jenny that shows the mansion in the background.
Reverend Dina held such a nice service, full of thoughtfulness and sensitivity.
Favorite shot of the day.
This may be my second favorite.
Well, hello there! Cupcakes from Vanilla Pastry Studio? It doesn’t get better than this, folks. I think I hear a choir of angels singing…
First dance.
Love these next two.
Shawn’s friend sang a beautiful, beautiful rendition of “Songbird” by Eva Cassidy while they danced. It was so touching.
Shawn and Ross, your love for each other is amazing, and it was an honor to be a part of your wedding day. I wish you all the love and happiness your heart can hold!
Hugs, Sandy
