Erica and Joseph

November 16, 2008 – 12:06 am

What an incredible day! St. Paul’s Cathedral and the Pittsburgh Zoo. My wife and I got married at St. Paul’s and just being there brought back so many wonderful memories. Erica and Joe were such a fun couple to work with. When we got to the zoo and went up the escalator, I got a very weird feeling and almost fell down the escalator. If you have been to the Pittsburgh Zoo then you know the feeling I had. It passed but then 30 minutes later when we were shooting in the aquarium I got the same feeling but worse. I blacked out for a second and fell over in mid shoot. I hit pretty hard but bounced right back up and finished the  awesome day. As a photographer, the first thing that comes to mind is not am I ok but is my camera ok. HAHAHA, all you photographers out there know you think the same thing. Thank god my camera was not damaged after the bad fall it took with me. My camera sucked it up and helped me capture the rest of an amazing day. So watch out next time your at the zoo. That escalator will get ya!

Here are some of my favorites from today.

2009 Wedding Season

September 14, 2008 – 11:46 am

Hey everyone. I just wanted to remind you that we are only booking 26 weddings for 2009. In the past we have done 38 or so and that has really kept us busy. As much as I love my job and love working with all of you amazing brides and your families, I need a few weekends to spend with my family. I also want to make sure I have MORE time to dedicate to my clients and continue to provide them outstanding service and products.

Photos by Nick is a family owned, family run business and if you already do not know; my wife works with me as my assistant. Family is a HUGE part of our lives and I am getting to the age where we will be having children. I do not want to miss my family grow up, so I know all of my clients won’t mind the dedicated service that will be continued in 2009.

For my past clients, what does this mean for you? I have expanded my business to more than weddings. With the little ones in my life now (nieces, nephews) I have opened a children/infant side to our business. Check back in 2009 for our new website featuring our child models. If you are a past wedding client of ours and would like us to capture your children’s photos, you will receive special VIP pricing.

Thanks everyone!

Trash The Dress Pittsburgh

August 4, 2008 – 7:03 pm

Hey Pittsburgh Brides… I am sure most of you heard about trash the dress. If you haven’t, then google it. What you will find is what some brides do after their wedding to just have some fun in a dress you will probably never do anything with again.

So what am I getting at here? Well we are taking applications for brides who want to trash their dress or just go take photos in their dress that we normally wouldn’t do on the wedding day, in risk of getting it dirty. If you feel up to the challenge and want to get some fun and crazy pictures in a Trash The Dress Session, contact us now to reserve your spot.

We would like to hold 3 sessions at the end of summer/fall and then 3 sessions in the winter. We are thinking of doing something like a ski trip or sled riding some saturday or sunday this winter.

Any questions? Contact me nick@photosbynick.com

Jen and Tom

July 20, 2008 – 7:29 am

Yesterday was a hot one coming in at 93 degrees. I give all the credit to the guys wearing the long coats and working with us in the hot weather.

Jen and Tom were so much fun to work with and I can not wait to start editing this wedding. but just from going through a few images, here are 3 of my favorites from yesterday. Jen and Tom got married at Saint James Catholic Church in Sewickley and we went to the Overlook on the West End.

We wish Jen and Tom the best of luck with their marriage and we will see you again very soon when we do your cousins wedding.

Thanks

Nick
