Those of us who live in Pittsburgh need no convincing that Pittsburgh is glorious in May. The city seems to alive after the always-too-long winter. We all come out of hibernation in May. The other thing that happens every May is–babies, babies, babies! For me, the month of May is always full of requests for outdoor newborn sessions. I love it!
Case in point: Baby Aidan, big brother Nolan, and Mom and Dad (Kaitlin and Bob). With a newborn, it’s not really necessary (or even a good idea) to go too far from home to get a great outdoor shot, especially during the nice weather. I chose the side steps of the family’s new home in Mt. Lebanon as the setting for these beautiful family portraits.
Then we moved inside for some more cuddly shots, and what could be more cuddly than bed?
Big brother Nolan and I are old friends, even though he’s only 18 months old. When Nolan was a newborn, Mom and Dad purchased the baby plan for him, and he just had his 12-month photo shoot just a few months ago. Here’s Big Brother Nolan as a newborn:
Nolan was a quiet baby, but since he has become a Big Brother, he has become the biggest chatterbox! He has a Baby Brother to talk to now! (Nolan calls baby Aidan “A”.)
This is definitely one of my favorite families, and I look forward to taking their photos as they grow!

I would love you to look closely at her little pink embroidered romper (above). This is a family heirloom; Mom Corey wore it when she was a baby. When parents include details like this, the pictures become part of family history. In fact, Corey is an original “Breezer” (that’s what they call people who grew up in Point Breeze, who knew?). I’m so glad I moved my studio here!
