Pint-sized beauty Madeleine has been taking ballet lessons and loves her jewels!

I had the pleasure of joining the Buschman family at their lovely home in the Mission Hills area of Mt. Lebanon.  After months of rain and snow, we REALLY lucked out and got this beautiful, sunny spring morning.

 


I LOVE the mother/daughter portrait. The stars aligned on this day with the perfect morning light and happiest child!  Feels great to be shooting again… thanks Buschmans for having me in your home!

HHH Benefit Portraits | Pittsburgh Baby Photographer

In March I had the pleasure of doing a mini session benefit for Hayden’s Helping Hands, a Portland non-profit that helps to pay delivery bills for families who have suffered the stillborn birth of their child. A heartfelt thank you to all the families who came out in support of HHH; your donations mean a lot to families.  Thanks also to the Warehouse Cafe for hosting… what a lovely venue for a photo shoot!

This little sweetie came to me at 4 weeks of age, a little older than most newborns that I see but just as beautiful and sweet as can be!  We got some lovely shots of her gorgeous little face, and she even let us adorn her with a few cutesy girly things.  I really enjoyed meeting Brooklyn’s mom and relating about the extreme challenges and extreme joys of having a new baby and remembering when Jonah was 4 weeks old.  What a crazy time that was… I had no idea what I was doing!

For this in-studio shoot, I was able to use my new Canon L series 100 mm macro lens to get some close-ups of her face and feet, and that thing is amaaaaazing.  So perfect for getting dreamy captures of a perfect newborn face!  I was on the fence between that and an 85 mm portrait lens, and I think I made the right choice.  Next lens on the wish list is a wider angle (35 mm 1.4?) for creative outdoor family portraits.
