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.

This is my little one on vacation and almost 22 months old-2nd birthday is approaching fast! Of course, she knows all about mommy trying to get her picture and has decided she doesn't want to look at the camera. You gotta love the pigtails!

During our annual family vacation, on the last day, I was able to take updated pictures of my niece, now 4 months. The sun was blazing even before 9am and dad had a hard time keeping his eyes open from the glare of the sun off the sand. Even so, I got some great shots of this beautiful new family.

My little one, who is approaching 2, loves umbrellas. We had come inside from the rain and she wanted to keep playing with the umbrella. What a joy to have my camera for these moments.

5-24-09 Family and Child Photography, Tampa, FL

While on a break from unpacking our house in Tampa, we traveled to Tybee Island, GA to visit friends. This is a long-time friend of mine and her family, and I had photographed them first last January. Little N is 6 months and precious. This was his first beach trip and he seemed to enjoy the sand and the water. What a smile! Although close to dusk while photographing, the beach was busy but we were able to avoid the crowds close to the dunes but under the pier was a challenge.

5.16.09 Engagement Photography, Pittsburgh, PA

The day before leaving Pittsburgh I was able to meet up with a dear friend in the Southside, where she got engaged, to snap engagement photographs. Of course, the Pittsburgh weather was with us....rain. Fortunately, the rain came in spurts and we had light rain and dry moments. My favorite shots are on the hot metal bridge....rain and a bridge truly make these Pittsburgh photographs. This couple was fun. I will miss you R and wish you and T all the best!
