The view a mom has rocking a newborn to sleep

BARND NEW: BABY HENRY (PITTSBURGH NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHY AT HOME)

Newborns

This is my third in home newborn session with this beautiful family. And I’ve loved them all! It’s pretty awesome to look back and watch them all grow over time.

Baby Stella

Baby Scarlett

Last but not least… Baby Henry!!

He’s a sweet little addition and loved by the family already. Big sister Stella cannot get enough and is really enjoying being “mamas helper”. Scarlett takes a little more time to warm up, but boy when she does is it cute! This session was all about letting the girls love on their new baby brother. Letting moments happen naturally in between everyone taking turns holding Henry was what made it special and true to their new season of life . Laid back, love filled!

This mama knows precisely how to style and bring together a simple nursery that is oh so perfect. And she knows how to coordinate outfits for in home sessions. Comfortable, simple, adorable, lived in neutrals and patterns. Take notes everyone! She may have her hands full these days, but she’s knows what she’s doing.

let's get to know each other!

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 is to simplify the photography experience so you can stay present in it, while I document it with intention and care.

You want images that reflect who you are, what you’ve built, and where you’re headed next.  I'm here for that.
