It’s something in the way they smile. Genuine joy and contentment to be in the presence of each other. If you look closely at Trinh’s eyes, they’ll tell you just how happy they are. Happy to look at the man who stole her heart.
Trinh and Thien are a very spontaneous and fun loving couple who are getting married this April! Sophie and I had the pleasure to finally meet the couple who currently reside in Pittsburgh, PA. It was nerve racking getting our holiday schedules synced in order to get their engagement shoot in, but we were successful despite the frigid, snowy days that mother nature was giving us. We hit it off right from the start as the two became very comfortable with us. We can’t emphasize enough how important it is to be comfortable with your photographers…it helps us get you the best photos that capture YOU. I think Sophie loves the street shots, Trinh and Thien are such troopers for not even batting an eye when we suggested, oh, I don’t know, LYING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET!! Crazy, but the photos came out great and I think I perfected directing street traffic.
One thing I particularly liked was the fact that very few of these shots were posed, in fact the majority of them was due to the couple’s spontaneous behaviors which I initially had difficult keeping up with. Fortunately, my better half was always spot on so we didn’t miss a beat. Talk about a photographer’s dream having clients who come up with their own shots!
We would like to give a shout out and a huge thank you to Trinh and Thien for being such good sports and for choosing Triple 8 Photography to be your wedding photographers. It is definitely a credit to our past clients who left us positive feedback and through friend referrals for us to be able to book clients from out-of-state. We look forward to April when we can capture the beginning of Trinh and Thien’s story together! Much Love and Appreciation, Tim & Sophie.
We love capturing the “in-between” moments!
Can we say, Vintage Hollywood?![]()


Tim took this shot…
…while Sophie took this one
These are the benefits of two photographers!









Trinh is an avid Steelers fan and Thien is a Niners fan. Their teams won that day, and they’re celebrating together (although you tell us if it looks like Thien kicked Trinh in the boots)!
