It all began when the stars aligned | Pittsburgh award child photographer

she had stars in her eyes and galaxies in her veins

 

Magical child sessions … ahhhhh give them all ! It all started with a dress – I had seen this dress and dreamt of the day that it would be rented for a session. That day came & it was more perfect than I imagined. I love stars & when I get to incorporate them into a session I try to make it different form the last …because we all know I have used stars quite a bit . LOL . I had a mentor come in all the way from South Carolina, (Paige) that hired me for my pixie dust mentoring session. The idea is that I create a session that they oversea from start to finish. . . +

These type of sessions are super fun & typically super magical because my creative juices get to run & play. (Where as normally my child sessions are truly based on the child his/her interest love etc. at the time…these sessions are a different part of my imagination and what can I do to show my creative juices to the one hiring me )

Paige and I did a model call that included that they needed to have a big dog. I felt like the stars aligned with these 2 beauties came into my inbox. I grew up having a great dane and have a special spot in my heart for them. This Blue great dane was just as beautiful as her sister. We all had a lot of fun at the studio and outside the studio in alleyway.

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

Pittsburgh child photographer | Dream mini sessions are back !

these sessions are what dreams and imaginations are made of  <3

 

scroll down for details

.

.

.

Last years Day Dream mini sessions were adorned with pretty stars and the fluffiest clouds.

These sessions are much more than pretty photos. This is all about letting your child shine and feel special! ( who doesn’t love to feel special?) They are meant for a child who is old enough to sit up through the age of 16. Day Dream mini sessions are really great for those hard to buy for girls for a birthday or holiday gift too 🙂

This year I decided to release these early because I had an inquiry that asked if I was doing these again because she wanted to purchase one for her daughter for Christmas – since her daughter is a hard to buy for tween – hee hee. I thought … Instead of a gift certificate why not open these up early so you can actually show you child photos of how fun it looks and how special they will feel after a day of pampering in pretty dresses, gorgeous accessorizes and clouds ( I love my fluffy clouds)

 

I practice what I preach about getting your children in front of the camera a few times a year if possible or at least 1x a year for a special photo session.

  1. They will feel really special
  2. You will have these memories for a a lifetime
  3. Your child will remember how special he/she felt each year
  4. This allows there personalities to shine through so I can capture authentic moments

North Pittsburgh Child Photographer | Sparkle, Shimmer and shine with JOY

 

It’s going to be the most wonderful time of the year. . .

With the kids jingle belling
And everyone telling you be of good cheer
It’s the most wonderful time of the year
It’s the hap-happiest season of all…
Starting off some whimsical holiday sneak peeks with the Armstrong children.
The Pittsburgh Penguins sure do know how to have the guest little nestlings 😉 (hee hee)… And not to mention win the Stanley cup!

Pittsburgh Mommy and me | Enchanted trail

 

 

Nothing is more important than capturing moments with your little one(s) .

Sometimes I think most of women after having babies feel changed. Maybe not feeling like yourself or feeling like you may look different than before you had children. There is nothing wrong with that. Heck, I am guilty of those feelings too. That is why every year I offer mommy & me mini sessions. I want you to get in front of the camera for one evening. Treat yourself to hair & make-up. Got get your nails done. Find a pretty dress- or i’ll even help you find one 😉 and book your session. I can not express to you how important these moments are.

This beautiful momma contacted me for my mommy me & mini sessions I held in June. I rented this beautiful settee from Vintage Alley. I styled this new momma in Joyfolie ( Coral Dress in Ecru) When she had ask what she would wear I knew that this was the perfect dress for the setting & he look.

The location was a HUGE part of this session. I wanted the momma’s to stand out and feel like they were in a fairytale with their babes
