This was a re-shoot for my friends daughter, whose pictures I totally messed up. It was super hot and we were at a park she had never been to so it was hard to keep her attention! I only took a handful of shots, but really liked these two!
If there is anyone in the Pittsburgh or really western PA that is expecting a baby and would like a photo session with me - please email me! I would like to get a portfolio up but am lacking expecting mommys! amie@amiepowell.com

Editing takes me so long to do, mostly due to my procrastination. But, anyways, here is my latest session which I did for a great friend of mine! I really enjoyed photographing him. He was so easy!

I have only edited this picture, but wanted to share! This baby was a dream, he slept the entire time!

I finished up this family session lastnight. I love the way the family pictures turned out..I posted my favorites. We had more posed ones too, but I personally prefer the more relaxed, candid shots. The photos of just the girls didn’t turn out so well. I noticed they were dark on my LCD, but I was having a horrible time keeping me shutter speed up above 100. Even at a high ISO and low Ap..so anyways, they were out of focus and so grainy. I should have taken them to better light, I don’t know what I was thinking! Lesson learned I suppose. I will be re-shooting them sometime this week now. Tomorrow I have two sessions, so excited!

I am finally getting around to editing this session. I just adored these two!  More later.

I must say, I love doing senior sessions! They’re just so enjoyable for me. After this I did a family of four, and they are definitely more work. Anyways, these were all shot in manual in RAW format, which I absolutely love! It was a breeze to proof these images! I thought RAW was going to be so complicated but it was so simple.

We are now officially living in Pittsburgh! Our move went well. I am extremely glad it’s over! The kids have adjusted well, I don’t even think our son noticed we moved. Our daughter cries at the thought of moving back to where we were. She is enjoying living in the city, which I am so happy about! I haven’t taken many pictures.
I have two sessions tomorrow. A senior, then a family with two small children. I am excited, but a bit nervous about shooting the family.  I am going to shoot in raw, I have played with it some tonight, so everything should all go well.
