Holiday Starry Night (Day) in a Pittsburgh studio

memories and emotions

Let’s be real here. Most people when booking a photo session are wanting to capture moments – these moments become memories that are evoked by emotions.

It truly is poetic and beautiful if you let it release and unfold.

My idea behind my sessions is to do just that however, the concepts are to build uniqueness into the photos. Sometimes concepts might be obvious to the onlooker what you feel, what you see what you believe the idea of the images is about. However, the stories behind the images are really to be told by the clients.

Sometimes props are used because they hold certain meanings in their life.

I adore this Holiday starry night ( which was taken in the day ) theme. I have always loved stars since I was a little girl. My dad would teach me all about the constellations that we see above and the proudest moment in my life was seeing the northern lights – I know not stars. However, the magic in the sky against the stars is the most beautiful sight in the world.

I wanted to bring that magic to my set. I help my client outfit in the most perfect dress. Click here for the link. Gotta love supporting other creatives <3

All my images are edited with their very own presets and actions. CLICK HERE

Now onto the show!

Live life magically because let’s face it any other way is just plain ole’ boring | Snow Magical in Pittsburgh

December 2022

Let it snow!

even when … there really was no snow 😉

Live life magically because let’s face it … any other way is just plain ole’ boring.

Sometimes the snow does not come soon enough here in Pittsburgh or when it does it’s FREEZING. So that calls for some extra editing magic to happen.

Some photos just seem to take on a new life when you spin them in another direction and that is what you will see below here. I added some extra magical snow to some of my client’s Christmas Tree farm photos because …well … it honestly just seems to fit the moment.

And yes … I do offer Holiday | Christmas mini sessions ( almost ) every year. However, I will tell you there is nothing more magical than a full session capturing all the details and love and hugs and moments that happen. Mini sessions are QUICK … and you don’t always capture those moments …so keep that in mind 😉

All of my edits start off with my very own presets, this one got an extra topping of my NEW action which I am going release in the NEW 2023 year for you all, and of course, the snow ones had some extra editing for the touches of frost and snow.

My favorite images are created during that hour before sunset when the Earth is positively illuminated in beautiful light. When I am not outside you can find me in my light and airy studio where I love to tell a different kind of story. My signature look in the studio is at most times whimsical.
