I had a blast doing their engagement session this weekend at Mellon Park and Chatham University campus; it’s always SO fun hanging out with friends,…

Last week I had the sweet privilege of documenting the 1st birthday party of two sweet, wonderful twins: Madelyn and Nolan. These are two of the sweetest, snuggliest, happiest 1-year-olds I have ever met, and they were surrounded by family as they opened gifts, blew out candles, and ate birthday cake. Thank you, Jessica and…
What a beautiful, sunny Friday afternoon we have here in Pittsburgh!! I am reminded to be thankful for the sun, as the photos I’m posting today were from a very grey, snowy, gross day in the city. These photos were actually taken a few months ago, but I haven’t posted them yet because I was…
Hello everyone! The sun is shining through my windows today, so I decided to edit sunny, warm Las Vegas! Actually… it wasn’t that sunny or warm, but we can pretend, right? While I was in Las Vegas, two friends and fellow photographers (Mary and Caryn!) and I went out to the desert/canyon area to take…
Okay… back with more Vegas photos, as promised!! While I was in Las Vegas, two friends and fellow photographers (Mary and Caryn!) and I went out to the desert/canyon area to take some photos. It was really wonderful just spending time with these two girls, but in addition, we got some very fun updated photos…
Let me ask you a question: what would you rather receive for a wedding gift? A set of knives OR a large, beautiful, leather-bound wedding album with thick, hinged pages and your favorite wedding photos on every page? If you would rather have the latter, then this blog post will make you happy! One of…
I am so excited to show you some more white, snowy photos!! I know, I know… it is a little disconcerting to keep switching from sunny Las Vegas photos to snowy Pittsburgh photos. But, just stick with me here! The second couple to meet me at Frick Park for a fun, snowy, wedding session was…
Part of my wonderful week at WPPI (a national convention for 15,000 portrait and wedding photographers) was a small workshop with the husband-wife team of The Image is Found based on So. California. The Image is Found takes a creative approach to wedding photography – they have very individual taste and style, and they are…
Now that all the snow has melted in Pittsburgh and life is back to normal, I want to post some white, white photos from one of my two sessions in Frick Park a few weeks ago! When I sent out the call for couples to join me in the snowy park, Betsey and Matt were…
Hello all! I am back from WPPI in Las Vegas and am back to work on some more shoots and sample albums. We had a WONDERFUL time, and one of the things that I am really excited about are some new album leathers and design techniques that I learned about at the conference. So… first…
So… as you can tell, we are a long, long way from Pittsburgh! I am having fun out in Las Vegas with Mary Schwarz and Caryn Azure! We’re here for a national photography conference (WPPI), so we’ve been attending classes, talking about our businesses, and doing a little shooting as well! Here are a few…
Woohoo! I just landed in Vegas for a photography workshop/conference with some of the best in the business! I’m out here with some other wonderful Pittsburgh photographers, and seriously… I’m grinning just like Akamai. See ya when I get back!!
I find creative inspiration everywhere: in conversations, in movies, in music, in books, in the photography of others. And, today’s inspiration is the video “poison and wine” by The Civil Wars. Their voices are heavenly, the song is thoughtful, and the LIGHT! That subtle, beautiful light. Enjoy.
I live in PA, but I am Florida girl at heart. And fresh, falling snow still makes my heart pound like a little kid. It’s because of this that yesterday I sent out a call for couples to put on their wedding clothes and head outside in the freezing snow for some beautiful white photos….
I find creative inspiration everywhere: in conversations, in movies, in music, in books, in the photography of others. And, I’d love to just start posting some of that inspiration here. So, now for a new post series… inspiration everywhere! Since I am headed to Las Vegas this week, I’ll post one of my favorite music…
