Newborn Baby Max | Pittsburgh Lifestyle Newborn Photographer | Mt. Lebanon, PA

This week I am celebrating ONE WHOLE YEAR of running my photography business in Pittsburgh! Those of you who don’t know me well, here’s a little background… my family and I moved to Pittsburgh from Portland, OR in 2012 to be closer to family, since we had a then 1 1/2 yr old son, and our daughter Mimi was about to be born.  I took some time off to find our Mt. Lebanon home and to be with my baby girl but then was back up and running a little over a year ago. Before we moved to Pittsburgh, I ran my business in Portland for several years, but I also worked in Portland as a public high school photography & fine art teacher.  Now I am running the biz full time and could not possibly be happier!  I have enjoyed great success and wonderful clients since moving here and am so very grateful for all of you.

I have worked with the Kingston family twice now–once for holiday portraits back in December, and so I was thrilled when they contacted me to photograph their three-week-old baby, Max.

Through the process of shooting and editing babies, I always fall in love with them!!  Always!  This little guy was flashing smiles at me, big ones, at only three weeks old.

Big sister Arden is full of life and energy and such a happy girl.  She posed with her new brother, her Nana, and with Nana’s cat, who was in town visiting from the west coast.

This two-year-old was not at all camera shy!  This kid is so smart and can count to 100+!!

Some newborns are awake the whole session or asleep the whole session, but this time we got some awake shots and some asleep, perfect!

Newborn “Baby D” Dennis Eugene | Pittsburgh Lifestyle Newborn Photographer

Check out the Strip District maternity session with these guys from December; I love these images especially because it was below freezing on this day, so we worked for it!!

Baby Dennis arrived just before his due date, and we did a lifestyle newborn shoot at this family’s amazing mid-reno home in the Friendship neighborhood of Pittsburgh.  Yes, it’s true, they are renovating a historic home with a 1 year old and a newborn! And you wouldn’t believe how calm they are–just goes to shown that you can handle a lot in life with a serene attitude.
