Newborn Photography-Tampa, FL

This sweet little one is a week old and tiny. The pink hat I used was swimming on her head, but the hat picture brings a smile to my face and I'm sure will be a reminder to mom and dad how tiny Miss S was that first week. We thought we would have trouble keeping her asleep at first but once we had her warm and cozy (a space heater did the trick, although mom and I were sweating), she slept the time away. Big sis, E, loves her little sis and has been a big help. Congratulations to this beautiful family!

Senior Portraits-Pittsburgh, PA

This session was rescheduled from the 10th since rain came down in buckets shortly after we met in Oakland for a late day session. It had been a bright and sunny day and neither of us had even thought about the possibilty of rain. Fortunately, our schedules were open for the next morning since I was leaving for Tampa on the 12th. It was overcast and humid but this Senior was determined to get her pictures (even some pictures with a jacket). I'm so glad our session worked out. Good luck this next year M!

Senior Portraits, Pittsburgh, PA

While visiting family in Pittsburgh, I had time for a few senior sessions. Last Sunday morning was beautiful in the Burgh and I drove with this senior and her parents to North Park. This was a fun session. We drove around the park stopping at different locations and J was fast at changing outfits, when needed. The sun was bright at times but we also had some key cloud cover to help with our lighting. Have a great senior year J!

Over in South Tampa (my first trip to this area), I met up with this mother & daughter to take pictures in their beautiful (relatively new) home, which was built on the spot where they have lived for many years. P & L were welcoming and I was excited to find several perfects spots for photo taking. It was nice to have the house to break in the airconditioning. P & L were fun and I'm looking forward to finishing the rest of their proofs!

This was my first family photography session here in Florida and it was hot and sunny, even early in the morning! The K family are friends of ours from South Carolina and by chance live practically down the road from us. They live in a lovely community with great landscaping, which made finding a location to photograph easy. Their little girl is so sweet and their little man, K, recently turned 3 and loves cars. This family is expanding and expecting this winter. Thanks for a great session family K.
