Irony

Stopped in my tracks when I saw this moldy life preserver with frayed rope. I guess it would do in a pinch, but it certainly doesn't instill confidence!

Sisters: Ruthie and Theresa

This is one-year-old Theresa.

She was very sweet-natured and loved having her picture taken-but most of the time she was running away from my lens-what a fun game for a little girl!

 

This is big-sister Ruthie!

 

 

Theresa brought along her beloved puppy.

Ring-around-the-rosie!

"Mom!? What do you mean you don't want me dragging my sister around by the arm?!"

Chasing shadows.

Mama with one of her lovely daughters.

And for good measure, here is Wolfgang, and...

Penny, the family dogs.

Thanks Tricia, for allowing me to come photograph your daughters! It was a fun morning!

When Your Child Actually Asks You to Take Their Picture

Senior Portraits: Booking With A Friend

When booking your senior portrait session, consider booking with a friend! You will each receive 10% off, you can have some pictures taken together, and you can help me make each other laugh for your session! Really, these girls were so much fun, and I think they really enjoyed being together for their photo shoots.

Rachel and Lauren have lived across the street from each other since they were three years old, and have never been away from each other more than a week at a time!

 

Rachel said this picture would make her mom cry.

These fun loving girls had a blast with the freedom to make their session what they wanted it to be!

I hope you girls remain close for the rest of your lives! Friendship is a blessing!

Senior Portraits:Lauren

Lauren is a very kind high school senior in my neighborhood who always stops to say hi to my son and daughter. She was very fun to work with, and the wind cooperated nicely by blowing her hair for me!

 

 

 

 

Senior Portraits: Robyn

Here is Robyn, a lovely girl that lives in my neighborhood and who will officially be a senior with the start of school tomorrow! The bottom two pictures show the Pittsburgh skyline in the background.

NICU

This week I had the unbelieveable joy of meeting a set of preemie triplets in the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit). Born at 32 weeks, 6 days, they are remarkably healthy, adorable, and so very tiny. For my fellow mothers-of-multiples, the stats are as follows: Baby Girl-3lbs 13 oz's; Baby Boy-3lbs, 13 oz's; Baby Boy- 4lbs, 4 oz's.

In order to respect the family's privacy, I have not included any pictures of faces. The setting definitely presented challenges, with zero natural light, dimmed overhead lighting, plastic isolette's, nurses needing to do their work, and very tiny rooms...but I was honored to visit and photograph these delightful 2 day old babies. Welcome to the world little ones!
