Captivating Imagery: Pittsburgh Wedding Photographer and Professional Photography Services

It’s just about that time to meet up with family and old friends and celebrate the Christmas season. But before I go, here’s a post from a senior portrait session in October. I met Sam through his brother, whose wedding I photographed in Pittsburgh this past summer. He’s a great guy and we had a fun time during his session with a little help from his friends. First we started with a traditional portrait for the yearbook photo.

This messy look with the hair was expertly achieved by his younger brother Raymond, who stood by making sure it was all in place.

I think this is one of my favorites of Sam. He looks so comfortable and casual leaning against the wall.

Ok, time for another look.

These images of him on the green chair are close contenders for my favorite shot. Love seeing his arms on the back of the chair. Watch out, ladies!

And here, he’s just too cool for school.

We stepped outside the studio to walk along the train tracks and trees that run along the Monongahela River.

What a great guy! Thanks, Sam, for a great session! Many blessings to you in all your future endeavors!

Here is a recent senior portrait session in Pittsburgh.  Jordan is getting ready to graduate from high school and move onto college. He’s a charismatic guy and I can tell he’ll do well with whatever he chooses. It’s fun working with people at this age because there’s so much life ahead of them and yet they’re coming the close of a chapter where they’ve spent so long defining who they are and want to be. Kind of like getting to the top of that first hill in a roller coaster, it’s a slow ascent, but in no time the pace accelerates and life as you know comes undone. Ok, that’s a bit dramatic, but when I look back at how my transition to college went, I feel there is a hint of truth to that analogy. Anyway, back to Jordan, who was tons of fun to work with and totally comfortable in his own skin.

This is one of my favorites. I think he can really pull off the serious look.
