Pittsburgh Wedding Photographer | Christina Montemurro bio picture
  • Hello! I’m Christina.

    Welcome! If you're looking for a wedding or portrait photographer in the Pittsburgh area, you're in the right place.

    Choosing a photographer is one of the most important decisions you'll make during your wedding planning. It's so important to find someone you can trust to capture the big and small moments of your wedding day, and someone who makes you feel comfortable at ease.

    I'm known for being laid back and relaxed, and respect that this is your day to celebrate and enjoy. My goal is to get you beautiful images efficiently and unobtrusively so that you have lots of time for fun.

Good morning, sleepyhead!

When Jonas wakes up in the morning, I hear some little footsteps upstairs. And then he sits at the top of the stairs for a couple minutes before he comes down. I don’t know, thinking about whether to ask for “juice” or “juice” or “juice” for breakfast? Unlike his mom, he doesn’t like change much.

One morning last week I was prepared to capture the unbearably cute little sleepyhead before he made his way downstairs. I just want to reach into the screen and hug the little guy!

sooooo adorable, christina!!! good seeing you yesterday, by the way. :) we need to do it more often!

What’s that strange, unfamiliar bright object in the sky?

Finally a beautiful sunny weekend in Pittsburgh! We took full advantage.

Saturday seemed the perfect day for the zoo. Apparently lots of others had the same idea – it was crowded!

Leo, looking at the lions. I love how the green of his jacket brings out the green in his eyes.

We spent most of our time at the Water’s Edge exhibit, looking at the polar bears and sand tiger sharks. Jonas was pretty scared of the polar bears, but oddly enough the sharks’ rows and rows of razor sharp teeth didn’t bother him.

I love the light in that last one! I’m very excited for May 15 when I’ll be shooting Emily and Tim’s wedding there.

An unusual occurrence: me in front of the camera!

My hair isn’t really rainbow-colored. Just brown. Neat effect though with the sunlight streaming through the shark tank above.

By the end of our time at the zoo, both boys were tired and arguing over who would get to ride in the stroller. So they doubled up.

Since Sunday was just as beautiful, we headed over to Frick Park. The playground still had plenty of snow on it, but that didn’t stop us.

Even Marley the Dog came along! Poor girl is really showing her age. We only walked on the park trails a little bit, since the boys were eager to get to the playground, but she was worn out.

Ooh, I love the aquarium photos. Ha, and your poor dog! I’m sad to see there’s still snow on the ground.
