Kate and Will. Will and Kate.
It had a vaguely familiar ring to me.
Honestly, I really didn’t get it until we were on our way to the wedding when Jasmine Goldband, my wonderful friend and fellow photographer who was working with me that day, pointed out that there is a very famous couple who go by the names Will and Kate. Hey, I’ve got a lot on my mind on a wedding day 😀
Like that famous couple, Kate is breathtakingly beautiful and Will is a very classy guy. Unlike that famous couple, despite their considerable achievements and talents they are both humble, approachable and completely down to earth. It was a joy to be with them on their wedding day. Their wedding took place at one of my favorite venues, The Pittsburgh Center for the Arts in Shadyside. It was a perfect early fall day for an outdoor ceremony as you’ll see when you look through the photos:
