Newborn Baby Alina came to me a few weeks back for a simple & clean newborn portrait in the studio.  We chose rich blue, red, and grey tones for her portrait to keep the attention focused on her beautiful eyes, full head of hair, and perfect, soft baby skin!  What a sweetie!

These two live in Mt. Lebanon and are expecting their first baby, a little boy, in June.  We did a “gender reveal” session a few months ago when Vanessa was barely showing:

Then we did their maternity session when Vanessa was closer to 7 months.  Golden hour maternity portraits are one of my absolute favorite types of sessions!  I would love to do portraits around this time of day with families, but currently sunset is after 8 pm and it gets even later toward the solstice in June–not usually the best time of day for the little ones, but so pretty out!!

Such a beautiful silhouette–love this location!  Vanessa’s hair is so gorgeous because she is a stylist in Downtown Pittsburgh.

These guys are a lot of fun to work with and I am super excited about there newborn session next month.  I got a peek at the nursery and it’s on its way to being so adorable!

It’s so good to be back outside doing family sessions!!  Thank you Mother Nature for this beautiful evening I spent with the Patel family!

I am a big fan of neutrals and was extremely pleased with mom’s outfit selections here… a great mix of textures but all in the same tone family.  Lighter neutrals create a breezy feel in a portrait that I love!

2 year old Lena is a classmate of my son’s in preschool so I’ve already had a chance to get to know her before our session. She loves learning about whales and listening to opera music.  Little brother Avi was a real trooper too–you can’t always get a 1 year old to cooperate for an evening session but it pays off in beautiful, warm light if they do!!

This is one of my favorite photos of all time–I just think it captures the two year old spirit so well, and her long, dark hair contrasts so beautifully with the backlighting.  Love it!!
