Baby Emilia is a beauty, just like mom!  She let us prop her up on her elbows for a super sweet newborn pose.

Proud dad took some amazing portraits in between watching some b-ball during our session. 🙂

You have to love this delightful series of facial expressions!  These often happen right as baby is drifting off to sleep, so I try to be ready!  The last one is one of my all-time faves for the outtakes.

It was such a great pleasure meeting the Pratt family and getting to know them a little bit.  I’m crossing my fingers that they move over to Mt. Lebanon someday!

Even despite our recent stressful car accident woes (negligent driver texting crossed center line and hit us head-on right here in our Mt. Lebo neighborhood–we all survived, thank goodness!!), I had a huge smile on my face editing this session because how can you feel anything but joy with this kiddo’s expressions?

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!
