Nora London | Mt. Lebanon Pittsburgh South Hills Maternity Newborn Photographer

Here is another gorgeous newborn girl and another name I love!  The top image is one of my all-time favorites that I have used for my website header and for studio samples. Such a beautiful girl and a fresh, clean image… love it.  At the bottom you can see images from Chelsea’s maternity session.  I enjoyed working with this family very much, super mellow and loving parents, and what a sweet baby!

Newborn Mack Morris | Pittsburgh Mt. Lebanon Newborn Photographer

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.

My life has settled now and I am doing photography full-time (quit my teaching job!), we bought a house (Cedarhurst area of Mt. Lebanon–did you know there is a tiny lake there?), and Jonah & Mimi are the sweetest, mellowest, cutest children a mama could ask for.  Jonah is now almost 2 1/2, and Mimi is rapidly approaching 7 months old. I am already missing her first, second, third months of life and need some new babies to squeeze.

I am overjoyed to admit that I really love living here and I am missing Portland less and less.  The culture of Mt. Lebanon and Pittsburgh are extremely supportive of families, there are so much exciting cultural things I want to do and have done here (Pirates games, Pittsburgh Zoo, wonderful parks, Carnegie Library, etc etc etc), and I have gotten to know many, many wonderful people in the 10 months I have been living here. On a very deep level, I feel I am coming into my own as a mom, a wife, and a person and am truly flourishing!

I got so slammed last spring in preparation for our move to Pittsburgh and a run of awesome clients, that I never blogged some of my favorite clients and sessions!  I am going to try to get to 5-6 of my favorites in the coming weeks, starting with this session of baby Annalise:

This couple was fun and easy, we got the most beautiful day at the Portland Rose Garden, and I just love the way their portraits turned out.  This is a great example of why I like to shoot families on location (this could be a park, your backyard/garden, or an exotic location like the aviary or the zoo) when possible.  I think the whole shoot was less than an hour, and I got so many lovable portraits of this family and their beautiful baby girl. Springtime = new life, new friends, & beautiful portraits!
