I’m Christina. I’m short, I have brown eyes, I live in McCandless, and I make wedding videos – my business is Syncopated Pictures.

Now, meet my friend, Christina. She’s also short, with brown eyes, lives in McCandless, and makes wedding videos – her business is Traveling Heart Productions. No kidding.

As far as booking weddings for video, Christina is my competitor. But, I’m glad to say that we’re both big believers and supporters of the idea of community over competition. We have logged countless hours sharing insight, advice and wisdom about gear, lighting, audio and more. It’s extremely helpful to be able to bounce ideas off of someone who does the same thing you do, and I’m so glad that we Christinas crossed paths so that we can collaborate and support each other.

Christina is working on a website upgrade, and so we set out to get her some new photos to use on our website and social media. She’ll claim that she’s super awkward, but it’s not true. We had a blast wandering around downtown Pittsburgh for these portraits. A few of my favorites, right here!

After the shoot we indulged in a couple beers at Hotel Monaco’s Biergarten, which will just be open another month or so before its winter break. So I got one last photo in: Christina at Night.
