Pittsburgh Newborn Photographer | Baby Claire

Baby Claire is #2 for this family, whose newborn baby girl I photographed just a couple years ago! Claire's family prefers a simple & clean portrait session for the newborn portraits, which is perfect for my uncluttered style.  We shot this session in my Pittsburgh photography studio. Big sister Quinn brought her bunny along, which adds a touch of personality to some of these sibling shots!   Studio portraits always usually look nice in black & white because of the higher contrast & directional lighting. Thanks so much for inviting me to capture this time for you!  :) More from this session here: https://youtu.be/cpuA-k6t4fU ********** Missy Timko is the photographer behind Powder Blue Photography, a boutique photography studio located in Pittsburgh, PA.

Pittsburgh Photographers | Newborn Baby Dylan

Adorable baby Dylan has just about the sweetest and most adorable big brother in the world, so he has a good example set for him as he grows into a little person!  His brother Caden is just a huge love bug! This cute blue onesie fit him just right and I think it looked perfect on the irate bedspread in mom & dad's room.  One of the first things I do when I arrive for a lifestyle newborn session is look around the house for brightly-lit areas with interesting or simple backgrounds for portraits.  We usually end up in the master bedroom at some point! We got these timeless white portraits on the floor in the bedroom--very simple!  Window light and a blanket, done. This background was actually a red Christmas blanket and a green wrap (since Dylan was born near the holidays) but I thought it looked super cool in black & white! My helper Caden watching garbage trucks out the window... :) The men!  Cute! Lucky to get this babe with his eyes open, he was so sleepy and content! Portraits in front of the Christmas tree are so fun!!  I have a holiday baby (who just turned 6!!) so I am nostalgic for this type of image. Baby Dylan has the cutest nautical-themed baby nursery!  Navy blue, lime green, grey, and white.  So classic! Thanks H family--I loved shooting your sweet boys!

Newborn Baby Landon | Upper St. Clair Newborn Photographer

One of the last newborns I photographed this year was baby Landon!  This little guy is part of a family that is very special to me! I met them in 2014 (when there were only four of them) for a Pittsburgh family portrait session, and in the meantime our kids spent a few years in preschool together.  A million birthday parties later, I am happy to call them some of our closest friends. Look how big Landon's hands are!  I think he is going to be tall! It seems like every year I get to photograph a couple of pittsburgh newborns in front of their Christmas tree.  It's extra sweet to me because I have a New Year's Eve child, and I associate the holidays with having a newborn baby as well! I think Lauren looks like Clara from The Nutcracker in this picture... fitting because she just played a mouse in a local production. Pretty special to have a little boy and two older sisters!  Do you think they will play dress-up with their little brother in a few months? Madelyn's dress is Tutu du Monde, a line I just drool over every time I see it. Lauren's beautiful dress is from Chasing Fireflies. So honored and grateful to know you, and thanks so much for entrusting me to photograph your gorgeous baby boy! *** Are you looking for a lifestyle family portrait photographer in Pittsburgh?  I would love to hear from you!  Powder Blue Photography offers indoor & outdoor family portraits in and around the city of Pittsburgh, including the North & South Hills, Peters Township, Canonsburg, Upper St. Clair, Fayette, Fox Chapel, Wexford, and Mt.
