COMING SOON: BABY Z (PITTSBURGH MATERNITY)

They are a go with it, roll with it kind of family who makes anything they do look SO GOOD. It wasn’t easy getting to this session, after two reschedules but wow, I love that we waited for THIS night to shoot. These three (and that adorable baby bump) loving each other… enjoying time together at the Mellon Park Walled Garden… so fantastic.

I’ve photographed them now during some really wonderful family milestones. Ella’s in home newborn session was a dream (and still a favorite of mine). This mama sets nursery goals so high. Style is her thing. She’s amazing! They jumped out of the car and the family was coordinated -not matchy- showing off personalities, all while allowing that floral maternity dress to pop off the greens in this location. Celebrate that growing belly – don’t tell this mama twice. Done and done. Gah – I just adore that bump.

I’m beyond excited to meet their newest little lady in the coming weeks and equally excited to see sweet Ella as a big sister!
