Emma & Parker’s Engagement Session at Carnegie Museum

There’s something about the elegance of the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh that makes every engagement session feel timeless. Emma & Parker’s session was no exception. I first met Emma at the Cavanaugh Wedding Show at the Wyndham in January, and we hit it off immediately. From the start, it was clear these two were full of warmth, laughter, and effortless style.

For their engagement session, Emma kept things classic in a sleek white dress while Parker wore a cream-colored linen suit. Their refined look paired beautifully with the museum’s grand architecture, creating a timeless and elegant feel in every shot.

We began on the museum’s stunning grand staircase, a favorite spot for dramatic, romantic photos. From there, we wandered into the Hall of Sculpture, where soft museum lighting and the details of the artwork created intimate, memorable moments. The Hall of Architecture offered yet another striking backdrop, perfectly complementing their sophisticated style and natural connection.

After exploring the museum’s interior, we stepped outside to enjoy the pretty trees surrounding the building. The soft, filtered light added a dreamy, natural touch to the final images, capturing Emma & Parker in a serene and romantic setting.

It’s hard not to feel excited for their wedding next year at the Priory! From their engagement session, it’s clear that the day will be full of love, elegance, and those authentic, heartfelt moments that make every couple shine.
