The art if whimsy a light and airy workshop | Pittsburgh studio workshop
I absolutely adore capturing portraits during the ‘golden hour’ (or, a magic hour! as I like to call it). Some favorite images are created during that hour before sunset when the Earth is positively illuminated in beautiful light. However, 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. However, it also referred to lifestyle in a cute, playful way.
In addition to being a natural light photographer, I am a free spirit with a wanderlusting soul. My family is my everything. I am happily married to my husband over a decade now, Dave. We have three delightful and fun-loving children (who I use as my muses from time to time): our son, Brody, and twin girls, Harlow and Gabriella.
Description:
A dream coming true… after almost 8 years of shooting my passion for creating and living with my head in the clouds is coming true in my first ever solo workshop
Get ready to crack open a can of light and airy cause I am about to bring it to you full force!
I would like to invite you to my second home (ok, or sure feels like it at times) my Studio 415 Pgh where I create all of my white and pure magical images.
My studio is broken up into a few parts. My main shooting space is a white floor to ceiling space with one main window of light and other areas of light that pour in from other surrounding areas.
I would love to take you on an adventure down my rabbit hole of magic teaching my shooting techniques in my very own studio.

• Taking your images to the next level of magic
• Styling for clean pure images
• Posing tips
• Magical and simple sets

• Exclusive presets
• exclusive PDF including, props, links, studio tips, shooting tips, the equipment I use and before and after images.
The workshop will also include multiple models, sets, props, shooting (in all-natural light), posing tips and so much more!

Pittsburgh Child photographer | P is for PINK F is for flamingos

Pittsburgh Child photographer | P is for PINK F is for flamingos
“Why fit in when you can stand out “
Ok, so I went there … of course I went there ! I love all things PINK and well lucky for me so does this little one.
I had a vision for a couple years (it involved flamingos, walking flamingos and a whole bunch of cuteness) – I just wasn’t sure when I would do it … how I would do it … I just knew I was going to do it. When my twins turned 5 I was totally not ready. Well I was kind of ready I had already bought the flamingos, ordered the dresses … It just happened so fast it was the end of summer we were all so busy with life , kids going back to school … than back to school germs (blahhhhh) I had no chance of getting their session done.
So I patiently just waited until after all my holiday sessions. I put them in my calendar on a set date in my studio this way I made sure – there is no excuse this is happening.
Oh wait …so … I guess I am forgetting a HUGE part – this A M A Z I N G dress soooo I have the most talented friend who creates the most amazing dresses. Her name is Whitney, Little dreamers tutus is her company and if you have not heard of her yet … you are welcome :-D!!!
I came to Whitney with this idea of a dress. I knew I wanted PINK, layers, high low, ombre and … well I wanted to mimic a flamingo of course. We threw our glitter together and came up with amazing dress. It turned out better than I have ever imagined. It’s so soft. So beautiful.
My daughter L O V E D it and didn’t complain about anything itchy or bothering her ( which … I have the sickest children EVER when it comes to clothes )
Next…the shoes. Listen … I had no clue what I was doing for shoes. I had all these ideas and visions and nothing seemed perfect enough …until I online and found these amazing twinkle toes shoes from Sketchers. Talk about another match made in heaven. She didn’t want to take these bad boys off (I am pretty sure she would have slept in them if I let her – ha ) . To top it off – do you see the flamingo on the ice-cream cone <3 I mean … just everything !
So lets get to it ! Here it is:
Stayed tuned because I will be posting TWIN sister soon
This last image is my F A V O R I T E ever … it’s totally not in focus – I missed the mark. However, I don’t care. It’s all for ME I love this moment. I will never forget it and I have it for keeps forever <3 So just remember … I let you pick your photos from your sessions and YES sometimes I leave moments just like these to pick from. WHY ? Because … why not – they are moments , memories and you should have the choice whether or not you want it in your album or your walls
