Pittsburgh Maternity Photographer | Maternity Studio Session | V Family

I did this maternity session when mama was in her last month of pregnancy.  I think height has a lot to do with it–my shorter mamas tend to be ready for a maternity portrait around 7 months, with taller mamas ok to go closer to the end–the risk of course is that baby will arrive before we shoot your session!

Congrats to this beautiful mama to be!

Bri is my lovely friend (and now neighbor!) who allowed me to experiment with some new lights on her.  Her baby daughter is due, I think, next week… is that right??

Pittsburgh Maternity Photographer | Josh & Vanessa | Gender Reveal Portrait & Golden Hour Maternity

These two live in Mt. Lebanon and are expecting their first baby, a little boy, in June.  We did a “gender reveal” session a few months ago when Vanessa was barely showing:

Then we did their maternity session when Vanessa was closer to 7 months.  Golden hour maternity portraits are one of my absolute favorite types of sessions!  I would love to do portraits around this time of day with families, but currently sunset is after 8 pm and it gets even later toward the solstice in June–not usually the best time of day for the little ones, but so pretty out!!

Such a beautiful silhouette–love this location!  Vanessa’s hair is so gorgeous because she is a stylist in Downtown Pittsburgh.

These guys are a lot of fun to work with and I am super excited about there newborn session next month.  I got a peek at the nursery and it’s on its way to being so adorable!
