Leanne & Dan were suppose to get married on Oct. 2020, but thanks to COVID they had to re-schedule their wedding until next year, but that didn't stop them from celebrating their love. We did their engagement session at North Park and Hartwood Mansion. 

Dipali & Anish had a beautiful Indian wedding at The Hindu Jain Temple of Pittsburgh where they had the main ceremony surrounded by family, friends and love. Beautiful and significant traditions were all at the centerpiece of their day. We got early to the temple and we were able to do some bridal portraits before the ceremony.

Maria's family session was the freakin' best! She took the time and effort to plan everybody's outfits, including the 4-legged family members! We did this photo shoot at Riverview Park, and it couldn't have been a more perfect location for a gorgeous sunset. 

Doing a newborn photo shoot for not one but two adorable baby girls was incredible! I arrived to their house, like I always do for my newborn sessions and I started by setting up the props and getting the babies comfortable. 

Tarian and her hubby were also ready so they could join us at the end of the photo shoot for some family photos. Since it was during the summer, we had a beautiful summer afternoon and we were able to finish off the session outside in their garden.

Point State Park is such a beautiful location to have your engagement any time of the year, because each season offers something special and unique. For Emily + Joey's engagement session we did it in an afternoon during the summer months of Pittsburgh with that golden light we chase so much. We started off at the famous fountain, and then went to every corner that had nice lighting and a place for these love birds to celebrate their day how they envisioned it.  

We did Miranda + Tom's newborn session during the summer months and we started off at their beautiful nursery where we took lifestyle photos as they were changing the baby, and just in general family photos, and then we started with the newborn part of the photo shoot where we focused on the baby and the beautiful moments they had as a family. 

What better way to spend an afternoon than doing a maternity session during golden hour. And this session was one of my all-time favorites. If you've been in Pittsburgh for the summer months you know it's hot but we have beautiful lighting and long days, and this afternoon wasn't the exception. 

Come along and see what does a summer photo shoots look like In Downtown Pittsburgh.

Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes of a modeling photo shoot? Probably a lot more than you would ever know, because the photographer is not only responsible for making sure everything is set before the day of the shoot, but during, and most importantly after the shoot, which is when a lot of the work takes place.

What exactly is a portrait photography session? It’s a compilation of photographs of a person or group of people where the photographer works out a concept, outfit, location, and an idea to portray the personality of the subject being photograph.

You often hear photographers trying to describe their style, because that is what sets each artist apart. I would describe a photographer’s style as the sum of everything they do for the shoot, during the shoot and in post-production. Basically, their essence.
