BRAND NEW: BABY ISABELLA (PITTSBURGH NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY)

My job is dangerous sometimes. Dangerous in that I often walk away with “baby fever”. And this one made me want a third!!! (Thankfully my sweet and sour Myra Jane -at 20 months- still isn’t loving sleep, so I’m back to thinking my family of four is complete pretty quick, post in-home newborn session, haha!) Still… dangerous job.

Precious and brand new, Isabella is absolute perfection. She’s a dainty little thing with all of the baby features that make you melt. She’s content in her new world and alert with big eyes you can’t look away from. She’s strong already and so incredibly beautiful. Her parents did good 😉

Having spent some time with her glowing mama and daddy during their GORGEOUS MATERNITY SESSION, I knew that they were going to nail the whole first time parents thing. They are prepared, but roll with whatever comes their way. Clearly in love with each other, they’ve fallen head over heels, ridiculously in love with their new addition. Two weeks into being a family of three, they’re all doing pretty fantastic!

Their stunning home and nursery was a dream to photograph. Floral wallpaper, and coordinating crib sheets. Neutral and pink textures with gold accents. A nursery fit for their little lady.

I truly loved working for this family, during such exciting and emotional times. Congrats and love to all three of them!

Where your story is turned into something you can come back to. Photography for the life you’re living and the legacy you’re building.

Life moves faster than we expect. Seasons shift, kids grow, businesses evolve.

My role, on either side of the work, is to handle what gets in the way so you can stay present in your own life. Photography that documents what matters. Systems that protect the time and energy behind it.

You want images that reflect who you are, what you’ve built, and where you’re headed next.  That's the work.

Hi, I'm Melissa.

Maternity sessions, for me, are a celebration of your incredible journey, and the overflowing love you already feel for the little human you're about to meet.

The early days with your newborn are like nothing else. We’ll capture all the precious moments that make the sleepless nights and diaper changes all worth it.

Your family, senior, and portrait photographer in Pittsburgh, PA for every season.

Good stories are worth telling.

Documenting and celebrating, before that next big chapter begins. Senior sessions focus on natural and effortless 'posing' to create confident imagery!

Say goodbye to unnatural photoshoots. I use a child-led approach to guarantee a fun, stress-free experience. Roll with it and we'll make magic.

Your non-profit is making the world a better place, one event or community outing at a time. I'm here to document that so you can tell the world about the impact!

Approachability matters and everyone needs a solid headshot! Your small business or personal brand should have images that speak to what you have to offer.

I'm a mama!

The journey of motherhood is filled with fleeting moments waiting to be treasured. From tips on capturing your little ones' everyday joy to thoughtfully designed presets, my resources are crafted with love for every mama capturing every moment.
