The Morgans {Pittsburgh Family Photographer}

We spent some time with Jenn and Chris and their girls for a family photo shoot.  I’ve had the pleasure of knowing this family for a long time…

Chris was the youth director at my church and before he left to become  a big time pastor in Bethel Park he pulled me into helping with youth group.  It was one of the best gifts anyone has given me – he got me involved with a great group of kids – lots of them I’ve kept in contact with even though my days as a youth assistant are over.

Thanks, Jenn and Chris for trusting us to photograph your family!  We had a blast!!  Much love to you guys!

I love how Chris is looking at Jenn in this photo!

This is what I imagine them to look like all the time!  So full of laughs.  Usually in our shoots the families are laughing at me and the things I say.  This time around, I was laughing at them – we were having so much fun!

The CAPTAIN MORGAN’S!!!

I love how Ella makes them laugh!

I really loved taking photos of Jenn and Chris.  Sometimes the parents don’t want to be in front of the camera as much but they were so great.  I thought the kids were going to FREAK OUT when I asked them to kiss…they had to turn away.  I always get a good chuckle out of watching kids react to their parents being affectionate! 🙂

The Hogue’s {Pittsburgh Children & Family Photographer}

Had a great visit with Tom & Gretchen and the kids.  We did an on-location session at their house…..wow, it was windy up on the hill!!  We had a bunch of tasks ahead of us – family photos, pictures of the kids in their Halloween costumes, everyone in Christmas outfits, then the kids in their Christmas PJs!

We had a great time…I just adore this family!

Niki & Nick – A Rainy October Wedding {Pittsburgh Wedding Photographer}

It was a rainy day for Niki and Nick’s wedding…but they never let the weather bother them.  They were just happy to get married! 🙂

In addition to rain, Nick tore his bicep muscles (I think it was his biceps) so he couldn’t dip his new wife or pick her up.  There were a few poses from their engagement session that I wanted to re-create on their wedding but I was out of luck.  The dude just HAD to go play rugby!  🙂

Thanks for letting us be a part of your day, Nick and Niki – we had such a great time with you and your family and friends!!

One of my favorite photos of Niki.

Girls were fluffing out her veil!

Love this photo…there’s just no one else in the world at this moment but these two!

I had to grab some shots of them inside the church since I didn’t know how hard it would be raining outside!

We made it to a train station in Beaver that has an old little house with a covered porch.  It was a nice spot for photos.  They had 12 in their bridal party so it was a tight fit but we made it work for us!

Come and get what’s yours! It reminds me of one of the photos from their engagement session! 🙂

They got each other’s back!  Don’t mess with them!!!

Have fun with that veil! 

Then, the wind took it and it got stuck on the pole….but a perfect photo op!

Had such a fun time with these girls!!

So much joy… and pep to their step!!! Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Long!

A few little detail shots.  LOVED her brooch bouquet!

Ashley & Randy – Having a baby {Pittsburgh Maternity & Family Photographer}

It was a beautiful November day for Ashley and Randy’s Maternity Session!

They are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Reagan – their first child … and first grandchild for both families.  She’s going to be so spoiled!

They came over to the studio first for some simple quick photos…also some photos showcasing Ashley’s belly all wrapped in lace – but those photos are for their eyes only!

I can’t wait to meet Reagan! Congrats, Ashley & Randy!

She’s a beautiful pregnant woman.  She was glowing the entire session!

Look at that beautiful belly! 

The Reagan sign below is one that Ashley made – she’s been real crafty during the pregnancy!

I love shooting in open fields like this!

Have I mentioned that I like fields?!? 🙂

Mom and baby….

I asked Ashley to write something to Reagan .. not showing it to Randy.  Then I asked Randy to write something to Reagan and he clammed up – he had to think about it for a while but he came up with something that is TOTALLY Randy!  If you can’t read it, it says “Come to me first, I will say yes!”  My advice to Reagan – Always go to your dad…he’ll give you whatever you want and we have photographic proof of that!  Love you guys! 🙂

Daniel & Kate – Christmas {Pittsburgh Children Photographer}

Spent some time in the studio with Daniel and Kate for their Christmas pictures.  These two are a riot!  Kate kept sticking her tongue out at me – I’m pretty sure that’s a sign that she loves me! 🙂

Santa is on his way to these two lovely kids…

Hmm…wonder what she’s thinking when she looks at him.  I bet nothing good! 🙂  Santa’s watching, Miss Kate!

He loved his hat!

I love Christmas PJ photos!

She’s just too cute!
