OneLight Workshop Pittsburgh | Recap
This has been a busy holiday weekend! Jay and I photographed a wedding on Saturday, enjoyed fireworks and a fair on Sunday, and hosted Zack Arias‘ OneLight workshop at the studio yesterday. Speaking of which, I’ve finally finished the website for the studio. So, for you photographers in Pittsburgh in need of a place to rent for a job, definitely check out Pittsburgh Photo Studio.
