Jayden W: Pittsburgh Color Park Senior Photos

Jayden is a senior in Pittsburgh who plays the bass and is an incredible artist! It only made sense that the Color Park be the backdrop for his senior session. I've always wanted to have a session here! When Jayden told me he would be bringing his bass and wanted some night shots, I knew it was going to be a great shoot.

Congrats on your senior year, Jayden!

Empty Nester Christmas Photo Session Idea

Empty Nester Christmas Photo Session Idea

I have never photographed a session like this before in my 12 years of taking portraits!

This “Empty Nester” Christmas photo concept is one of the most unique Christmas card photo ideas I’ve yet to see!

These two came to me wanting to do something different for their Christmas card. It is their first year as “Empty Nesters,” so instead of taking a typical family photo for their card, they decided to lean into the transitional season they are in and take some photos featuring their “empty nest.”

What was so funny about this session is that one of their kids was actually there for dinner… so they helped us with the confetti portion! 🤣

Congratulations on these two empty nesters! If you live in the Pittsburgh area and are looking for photos to document your unique season of life, I’d love to work with you!

Holt E: McConnell's Mill & Moraine State Park Senior Photos

Holt is an Upper St Clair senior, and is the unofficial "tech guy" in his family... it only makes sense that he plans to study Cyber Security post high school!

Holt's session took place at McConnell's Mill and Moraine State Park on one of the most perfect September evenings - the light was just right! And Holt's twin sister jumped in for a few photos too. We had so much fun with this session... congrats on your senior year, Holt!

Meet Ben!

Ben is a senior at Mars High School who plays basketball - his session in Historic Harmony was a great one! Great light, great location with lots of backdrops to work with - and lots of fun! I photographed his sister a few years ago in Harmony for her senior portraits, and it was so fun to be back working with such a great family!

Congrats on your senior year, Ben!

Lilly brought three gorgeous outfits, including this beautiful blue maxi dress that was so striking against the Hartwood mansion!

And of course, we had lots of gorgeous light on such a pretty summer day.

Meet Mya!

Mya is a Mars senior who plays basketball, loves salty snacks, and starts her senior year tomorrow! She plans to study architecture (possibly at Pitt or Kent State - hence the flags! I couldn't resist posting because the background colors were too perfect!).

You might be surprised to see that I photographed a senior somewhere other than Hartwood It was such a nice change of pace, and I love how these images turned out! There are so many beautiful backdrops in Harmony to use.

Congratulations on your senior year, Mya!

Rachel & Boaz: Pittsburgh Botanic Garden Wedding

It was a beautiful and toasty summer day for Rachel & Boaz’s wedding! Their garden wedding was full of love, surrounded by friends & family. Their ceremony took place in the celebration garden, with a tented reception to follow.

One of my favorite parts of their wedding day was something I had never ever seen before - in lieu of a mother-son dance, the groom and his mom had a DUTCH BLITZ face off! For those of you who have never played, it's "a vonderful goot (card) game" that's fast paced... and one of my all time favorites! The showdown was epic and such a fun change of pace!

Rachel & Boaz, congratulations on your beautiful wedding day!

Thank you to Taylor Ramsey from Taylor Elizabeth Photography for photographing this wedding with me!
