Pittsburgh Newborn Photographer | Lifestyle Session | H Family
Sisters who won’t let go of hands. A family dog that won’t leave the baby’s side. For a photographer like me, these are sure signs that you are entering a house full of love.
Meet the H family. Even though this was a Newborn Session, big sister Sada practically stole the show! Sada just couldn’t get enough of loving and holding baby sister Ilana (she practically never let go of her hand throughout the entire shoot), and, of course, baby Ilana already worships Sada. Even the family dog, Poppy, never left Mom’s feet when she was holding Ilana. And then there was the very obvious, long-term love affair going on between Sada and Poppy, the family pup!
So this is a house full of love. But let’s focus in on newborn Ilana for a minute. After all, she’s the new little one and the reason I’m there! This gorgeous, perfect baby was a dream—so cuddly…
… and surprisingly animated for a newborn!
She wore the most precious onesie for her solo portraits, perfect for summer. It fit her well and kept her hands and feet uncovered, which is what I suggest when choosing clothes for newborns.
The opportunity to photograph the H family (with Mom Emilie and Dad Jared) in their Squirrel Hill Pittsburgh home was a real treat. And what a beautiful home it was! It had a soothing neutral décor, high ceilings, and was so spacious and inviting. We took many shots in the bedrooms, and some under a particularly lovely dining room window.
To the beautiful H family—thank you for allowing me to spend some time with you in your home!
The H family was referred to me by one of my other wonderful clients, and that got me thinking. The other day, out of curiosity, I looked back to see how many blogs I have posted. Would you believe I have posted 255 items since I opened my business in 2010? At first, it was just a few blogs here and there, then more, then more… and now, I try to post just as many of my sessions as I can. Then it hit me—most of my long term clients have been referrals from other clients! So I just wanted to say a quick thank-you to you, my clients, for all of the referrals you have provided to me over the years. THANK YOU!

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!
