Maternity, Recent Work

By the eucalyptus Peacock chair | Pittsburgh maternity photographer

Just when you think you know love, something little comes along to remind you just how big it really is.

I love the vibe of this session and who doesn’t love a boho styled peacock chair. Mama looked stunning in her Fillyboo maternity dress and the girls super darling in their tunic romper coordinating sets.

I wanted to get the set simple and sweet yet still add just a little bit of boho elements to coordinate with my styling for the session. I had custom floral from another session that I mixed up and used as accents. The Rattan Peacock chair was mine.

This session took place at my Studio (Studio 415)

pittsburgh childhood imagination session | The magic is in the book

“You can find magic wherever you look. Sit back and relax, all you need is a book.”

The pre”teen” | tween years… oh man oh man do I remember these years. I was suborn , awkward, I was trying to figure out my place- who I was and what I wanted to be. I was still a child in mind (where I wanted to play with Barbies ) However, I wasn’t looking like the little toddler in my head.

I am not a pre-teen mum YET … However, I am no stranger to it. I have a niece who is now going on 17 ( WHAT ??!!!?? When did that happen ? ) I of course myself went through these years and I will tell you ONE thing. Mum’s are not getting enough of their babies photos at this age.

I was lucky enough to have this little beauty in my studio ( last year (2018)… yes I am behind on blogging) . Do want to hear something funny … Her theme|concept was actually Harry Potter. We had Harry Potter books, color and accessories. It was really fun & cute – However, I asked her if she trusted me to go into another direction out of the dark, magical world she knows best & she trusted me. I had brought “extra” things to the set . Pastel books, a few dresses and some concepts that I sketched out. I brought her out of her “comfort” zone. Dad & Grandma and then mum ( after she saw the soft proofing gallery) were SHOCKED that she agreed and actually LOVED these photos.

I mean … I say it all the time. Sometimes it takes a little faith , trust and pixie dust.

Here are some of the photos from her “light and airy” set.

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

December 2018

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:

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
