Pittsburgh Wedding – Simplicity in the City

This sweet wedding had loads of classic details throughout. The ceremony was held at Bellevue Christian Church, and then the couple took to the Pittsburgh city skyline for their wedding portraits, which provided a timeless look.

Pittsburgh Newborn Photography – Letting Our Pets Join in on the Fun

This sweet newborn session was done right at home. I love being able to get some pictures of a newborn in their crib, and mom in her element looking down at her new bundle of joy. But as families grow, we cannot forget our furry friends who also welcomed a new little bundle of joy into his home. 

Celebrating Women Day’s

It’s International Women’s Day today and I have five images to share that I feel depict just some of the beauty and diversity in the lives of women.  Our lives change with many different seasons and our capacity to balance so many roles is something worth celebrating!

On-Location Portraits for the Wiser Senior

I struggled with what to name this post because it is from a session of a lovely lady who wanted to have a newer portrait of her to remember her by. And calling it a senior portrait doesn’t begin to give this session justice. I found myself really enjoying spending time with Helen and her son who organized the session.

In this shot below, she reminds me of the quiet confidence I grew to love in my great grandmother.

She wanted to wear her traditional Korean dress and I brought a backdrop and strobes because the occasion really called for it.

Her motivation for this session was a black-and-white portrait of her own mother, very much like this one below where she’s seated in her traditional dress.

God bless you, Helen! It was wonderful spending time with you and your family!
