Toddlers are a special bunch, and I love to photograph their little souls. They’re a contradiction, a conundrum… unpredictable, wild and exciting. Piles of rocks, Hot Wheels, fingerprints–artifacts, “a toddler was here” reminders. Super sweet.
This is a family with two little boys that recently moved to the Mt. Lebanon area from Alaska. Their kids are the same distance apart as my two little ones, so this was a little nostalgic for me remembering exactly where I was about 7 months ago… new to the area, going from one child to two, wondering what I had gotten myself into, but loving every second of my time with my babies. Check out how much dad & Everett look alike, complete with matching guayaberas!
Here these guys are laying on a goatskin collected in the Alaskan wilderness by their daddy. Big brother Everett gave Bennett lots of hugs and kisses and is an excited and happy little guy. Brothers! <3

Is that the coolest baby name or what? This is a newborn little boy from last spring that I never got around to blogging before we moved. On a side note, can you believe I moved from Portland to Pittsburgh 6 months pregnant with an 18 month old?? We survived and are SO happy we took the leap! Anyway, usually newborn sessions take a couple hours because we need that time to get baby really warm, happy, and relaxed. This little guy came in that way and was ready for his close-up pretty much 5 minutes after walking in!
I also did a maternity session with Mack’s beautiful mama and big sister a few weeks before he was born.
I have been getting a lot of calls from wonderful mamas inquiring about newborn sessions lately! It seems it is more of a “new” thing in the Pittsburgh area that is starting to catch on. I have some wonderful people on my schedule and am so excited to meet their new little ones this summer.
