About

I am always so stumped when it gets to the part when you have to talk about yourself! I don't want to over do it by blabbing but I probably will! I feel blessed that I knew exactly what I wanted to do since high school. Not many people can say that. I can remember sitting in my high school photo class daydreaming about becoming a photographer. I fortunately had the opportunity to attend a school that had a darkroom. It was an amazing little place where I spent almost all of my time in high school. Since then I attended Indiana University of Pennsylvania where I received a Bachelors of Science in Communications Media and Sociology. I continue to educate myself through workshops and classes to produce lifelong images for you to enjoy.I truly cherish this job and couldn't PICTURE doing anything else. Haha get it picture :-) ! ? ! My clients are amazing and you keep me doing what I am doing. So a big thanks to all of you !

I photograph weddings and many other types of portraits in the Pittsburgh and surrounding areas.

Wonderful Experience with CTG Photography!

We had such a wonderful time working with CTG Photography! Courtney was organized, professional, and just a lovely person to work with. She made us feel comfortable through the whole process. Our photos perfectly reflect who we are and captured the energy of our wedding so well!

Courtney was very receptive to our style suggestions and offered some really lovely Pittsburgh locations for our engagement shoot. As someone who isn’t very comfortable in front of the camera, I couldn’t believe how fun and relaxed the experience was! Her posing suggestions were perfect and she had really creative ideas that turned out nicely in photos.

Day of the wedding, Courtney and her team were ROCK STARS. Due to limo malfunction (lol) we arrived at the portrait shoot 30 minutes late, but the CTG crew were so efficient that we were back on schedule by the end of the pre-wedding shoot. I am amazed at how many beautiful, funny, genuine candid wedding moments they captured with just two people! From looking at my photos you would think they were everywhere all at once.

We enthusiastically recommend CTG Photography, we loved working with them!

Courtney is AMAZING!!!!

I absolutely, positively loved working with Courtney!! She did our Pittsburgh engagement photos back in October and just shot our wedding in Deep Creek Maryland on 7/2/21. She is extremely talented and down to earth! She has such a creative eye and takes breathtaking photos. Courtney is responsive, professional, and fun to work with. I could not recommend her enough to others! We can't wait to get the rest of our wedding photos back. Thanks again, Courtney!

Professional but Casual!

Courtney was amazing! She helped us pose and worked perfectly for our tiny little different wedding (A public park with 7 guests, with a full hour of just photos of the couple beforehand around the park, and photos of the family and couple after the ceremony). She didn't make us feel strange for our request and worked with all our last minute changes. The shots she got were beautiful, and I love her editing style. I feel really lucky that we had her as a photographer, and I can't recommend her enough!

She's Awesome!!

We did our engagement shoot in Pittsburgh. Now obviously Pittsburgh in January can get very cold especially to do an outdoor shoot. Now neither of us have ever gone to PGH but we were going for an event. She helped us map everything out and made it all possible. We got to do everything that we wanted to get done and then some! Now we froze to death as it was around the mid 20s and even worse around the water not including the flurries that we endured along the way. Most people probably would've cancelled with how to weather was but she braved it out with us and tried to do everything to help make it better for us. We both appreciate everything that she did for us. You won't regret it. She'll do everything she can to make sure you have the best experience possible.

Awesome photobooth!

Courtney did such an awesome job with our wedding photobooth! Her photo props were unique, which made pictures even better. She also had fun with our guests during photos, which helped bring out some fun photos too! Our guests enjoyed getting to take their 4x6 photos home as well, and made sure to keep every photo with us in it for the end of the night for us to take too. Such a help!
Leading up to our wedding, she was very responsive and easy to work with throughout the whole process. She custom designed our photo print design, along with selecting a background that fit our theme. We would recommend her photobooth for anyone looking to add this to their wedding!

The best!!!!

Courtney is a phenomenal photographer! My pictures speak for themselves! On top of that she is so sweet to work with and incredibly professional and organized. She was proactive about sending me questionnaires and scheduling meetings leading up to the big day so she knew exactly what we wanted. She kept pictures moving and family members organized so we were able to get everything done in time to get to our venue for cocktail hour. We wanted sunset photos and of course the Pittsburgh sun was not cooperating that day but she made our “sunset” happen by using her magical lighting tools! Courtney is amazingly talented at what she does and I look forward to having her shoot many more milestones for our family in the future!

Hands down Courtney is an absolutely amazing photographer. On top of that, she is so so easy to work with. My husband and I were so incredibly happy with our choice to have her capture our wedding day and she truly did not disappoint. Everything throughout the process was so well coordinated and she was always one step ahead. With wedding planning, she made the photography part so much easier and sent you updates and questionnaires way in advance which helped lessen the stress of the process. We ended up having rain on our wedding day, yet she was so calm and confident that the rain actually became a positive not negative. She was prepared with clear umbrellas for our whole wedding party and we got amazing pictures of us in the rain. Couldnt say enough good things about our experience with her!

Courtney was absolutely amazing to work with! People ask what the best money we spent for our wedding was, and I'm inclined to answer Courtney every time, and it could not be more true! We couldn't of asked for a more professional, knowledgeable, and most of all fun photographer for our big day! She made sure she captured every one of the pictures we wanted, while at the same time keeping a smile on her face and being so kind and polite to all of our guests/bridal party. She knows how to command a group and get the posed pictures that everyone wants from a wedding, but also how to get everyone to have fun and lettheir true self come out for those candid shots! If you're looking for a photographer who can not only give you amazing photos, but someone who you will leave wanting to be friends with even after your big day is over - look no further than Courtney!

My husband Mark and I could not have picked a better photographer for our engagement photos and our wedding photos. Courtney is a one of a kind photographer to work with. She is very creative and very efficient when it comes to her job. I couldn't tell she was running around taking pictures at the reception, but everyone commented on how hard working she was, being in 5 places at once to capture every moment. I would recommend her for any event you need photos taken for. Our guests asked us all night where we found her and how great she was. If you are looking for a great photographer, she is the one you want to go with.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
