big announcement…

With my kids getting older, and both being in school I am finding it harder and harder to find time to work. With baseball, soccer and camping I have had to turn down too many sessions this spring. I am going to be taking the next couple of months off to restructure my business. I have a small list of photographers who I have worked with and highly respect and will be more than happy to refer them to you. I want to thank all of my past clients over the past 4 years to trust me with your family portraits. It has been a fantastic experience meeting so many new people around the Pittsburgh area!

bare bellys and snow…

With the impending snow, I decided to skip ahead a few sessions, and post some snow photos. Hopefully after tonight the snow won’t make any more appearances until next winter.

I had so much fun with this session! I can not wait to photograph this little baby once he makes his arrival, which will be any day now!

Check out mama’s Etsy shop too.. http://www.etsy.com/shop/donotdestroy - It is closed now, but she has some fantastic vintage items!

distracted…

I met up with these friends with right before they were going to go and play at the library. It is always exciting for me to photograph my friends baby belly’s. Her son was very distracted by all of the buses driving by. Thankfully for him it was just a mini-session! Afterwards I shot my first roll of film since high school, and it was my first time shooting with a Holga, with my friend Kristy Lumsden…which is still sitting in my fridge waiting to be developed.

there are so many new babies in our thursday morning playgroup. which by the way if you are interested in coming, send me an email. we are very welcoming to new moms! :) anyways, like i said before, it is always a pleasure to photograph your friends! the little girl wasn’t thrilled at all to have her photo taken, she wanted to play. i can’t say that i don’t blame her. if i were to use this location again, i would bring a step stool so the arrows would be more directly pointing at the belly. next time.. :)

snow and bellies…

two blog posts in one day..wow! i wanted to get these posted today, because tomorrow will be the newborn session of the new baby. i love photographing toddlers. they are so shy at first, but quickly warm up. he was such a sweet boy and loved his thomas trains.

i have no idea of what happened, but after uploading these photos they seem to have lost some color. i will have to fix that later. right now i need to go get my own kiddos some dinner, and then out to learn to crochet with jill of D.R. photography and design..i’m excited.

almost here…

it is such a treat to be able to photograph your friends. especially when it is something special like a new baby! at one point her son was at the other side of the park hiding from me, because he did not want his picture taken..ha! he is such a sweet little boy, and he and my own little guy are friends. :) the new baby will hopefully be here any day now. and i am praying that they will not end up in the hospital on Christmas!
