Pittsburgh Child photographer | Little one’s in Little Dreamers tutu

When it rains look for rainbows. When it’s dark for for stars.

 

It was a perfect day to be in the studio on this Pittsburgh rainy day playing with the stars.

If you are looking for high quality tulle dresses Little Dreamers tutu : Whitney is your girl. I am so impressed with this dress in so many ways. The bodice is so soft on the inside, the sequins are not rough on their little arms, the tulle is so easy to fixed doesn’t seem to bunch as quickly as some cheap tulle I have dealt with other named dresses.
My girls seriously love this dress so much that Harlow even wanted to wear it to school today

Tips & Tools

Number 1 why you should print your photos through your photographer

Number 1 why you should print your photos through your photographer

Print your photos

 

Below is an example why I believe it’s best to print through your photographer. I had a client reach out to me because she was ready to place her gallery order. One of the images she requested was a 16×20 wrapped canvas. When I dropped the image into my lab I was super unhappy with the crop and knew right away I had to make this right. I took the photo into photoshop and did the necessary editing to make sure that when I dropped it back into the 16×20 canvas it would wrap nicely. In addition to do that I also made the necessary retouching I felt the canvas needed to make sure it would look it’s best at the 16×20 size.

The problem that most clients do not understand is these extra steps that unfortunately are unable to do. Even if you are experienced in photoshop

1. You are not supposed to retouch your files

2. We have the original file size so we can work on the raw file without harming the image in quality.

This is a grand example. I know that sometimes you look at the prices and think YIKES I can just go print this myself through a big box company and save $100’s of dollars. However, you are only hurting yourself. Again, I do additional post process work to assure that your image looks it’s best at the size you are wishing to print. I make sure the crop if correct – sometimes even when an image “fits” – sometimes it can use additional love to make sure it top quality – as it should be !

My professional labs I use will print the images in the quality they are meant to be. The paper is UV safe ( safe form fading). The color corrections are correct.

When you use big box store the quality gets hacked , the ink they use is not top quality , the paper is typically not UV safe and they slap on their own color correction further more ruining your image that you paid top dollar for.

Pittsburgh Child Photographer | 2 babies in a rose gold carriage

It’s double the giggles and double the grins, and double the trouble when you’re blessed with twins

 

Taken on a beautiful day in July I had the pleasure of photographing a set of newborn twins and their siblings.

The light was just right and my magical location with the most perfect environmental framing made me all gitty inside

Pittsburgh Child photographer | paper airplane adventures

Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere. -Carl Sagan

Paper airplane adventures of a 6 year old boy. Film look , golden hour, styled

 

I admit … I am lagging behind in blogging – I am trying to catch up. Most of all It being winter and a new year I am actually taking a little time for myself and family. I am still working . I just cut back for the next month or so. For example of how behind in life I got – these photos of my son were taken in July ( 2017) for his 6th birthday YIKES ! I mean … poor kid turns 7 in April and were just month’s away from his next birthday I thought I better get caught up – ha ha .

Truth is … I put my clients first – always. So even though I go out and take photos for fun or for my family those typically come last.

 

without further ado

I present to you paper airplane adventures of my 6 year old son.

 

Let them be little  … Let them be free … let them be!

Paper airplane adventures of a 6 year old boy. Film look , golden hour, styled

He is the sweetest , most loving caring boy. He loves adventure, building and creating.

When creating this theme for my son it came so natural. He was really into creating paper airplanes – His love for adventure brought me to creating the paper airplanes out of maps. This is what my child sessions are all about ( The magic within sessions) The are all about the child. Some more organic than others …some more elaborate.

He is a daydreamer (like his mama ! )

Of course … Mama has to play with the light while out. The sun was on my side that night wanting to play & dance with us while we scurried around throwing paper airplanes , giggling and talking about our summers adventures.

We didn’t want the day to end … however, all great things must come to an end …so as the sun softly and slowly fell in the sky we took those last moments to play a little bit more. All of his sweet expressions tug at my heart strings … this is how I see him all the time.
