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.
This fun session with a family of five happened earlier in the spring at the charming Succop Conservancy. With it’s lakes, Mansion, and barn, this park is packed with a variety of scenery. We scheduled this session early on a Saturday morning for better lighting, plus it seems most families with young children are up early anyway!
It can be tricky for brides and grooms to know just how long they’ll need a photographer on their wedding day. Or a second shooter for that matter. Of course there’s no right answer as it largely depends on the couple’s desires, but when there is uncertainty, I like to suggest a few considerations to help in making that decision. Also, I’m pleased to share some highlights from this beautiful wedding which was captured in just six hours.
It’s funny how sharing new work is the last thing on my list when I’m busy. But I’ve been blessed with a busy spring and summer and after sharing the joys of photographing a lovely wedding last month, I’d like to share one of my favorite things to photograph. This family portrait session marks the first birthday of this proud mom and dad. I love how in just an hour of photographing this family on a bright and early morning, there is a sweet narrative of interactions between these parents and their daughter.
So good to kick off this season with this lovely wedding at Oak Lodge, in the gorgeous Laurel Highlands, just outside of Pittsburgh. I could tell this couple would be so sweet to photograph during the engagement session. They opted to do a first look so that they could enjoy their cocktail hour with friends and family. And with the breath-taking setting of Church Rock, overlooking the valley below Oak Lodge, this first look was incredible!
