Fifteen years ago, I registered my business name and photographed my first wedding. I was just celebrating my own first anniversary and had a handful of classes at Pittsburgh Filmmakers under my belt. Thankfully, this couple had faith in me for their lovely backyard wedding and I walked away with the start of my portfolio and a certainty that I had found my passion. A few years later, I left my full-time job to focus on my photography business and not long after that, we had our first son. And while I still enjoy photographing weddings, I fell in love with capturing babies and families—always with the dream of opening a studio in the back of my mind. And in June of last year, that dream came true and I’m celebrating 15 years in business and my first year at the studio!
Looking Good, Class of 2023!
/by kmillerIt’s that time of year when high school seniors walk through their graduations and step into their next adventure. And from my camera, the future looks good! Plus, this has been the first year where I’ve been able to photograph seniors in my studio, so that’s been great!
Six Month Session at Cranberry Photo Studio
/by kmillerGetting to spend a morning with this family for their son’s 6-month session was just the sweetest. It reminded me of what that phase is like and it was a treat to get lost in the moments as I edited their session. I have photos of my boys at this age and it’s a good thing, because they help me remember those sweet moments (and some of the struggles, to be honest!) Take a look with me and be reminded that life is sweet.

First Birthday Cake Smash and Bubble Bath
/by kmillerI love photographing first birthdays, especially after having photographed the same family’s newborn session. It is so much fun to see the growth that has happened over the past year! I love the cake smash and bubble bath sessions so much that I have a big fiberglass tub that I fill and heat to a comfortable 98 degrees. And someday I’ll share the behind the scenes of that process, because it is quite a feat without plumbing in my studio! But just look at this image…it is so worth it!
