2013 Rachel Carson Trail Challenge {Pittsburgh Sports & Event Photographers}

We had a BLAST photographing the Rachel Carson Trail Challenge.  For those of you that don’t know what that is, it’s a GRUELING 35-mile trail challenge traversing the hills of the Pittsburgh area.  The run/hike must be completed by sunset.  Start sunrise, finish by sunset.  What a feat!!!!!

Thanks to all the hikers and trail runners we encountered on Saturday – you all are superstars!!!!  Congrats on even attempting such a challenge.  Kudos, props to you, hooray!!! 🙂

I am always impressed with those I meet during the challenge.  As a hiker myself, I think the hiking community is one of the most friendliest I’ve come across.  I can’t tell you how many hikers THANKED us for being out there taking pictures.  I was trying to give them encouragement or make a joke or two to lighten the mood as they made their way up those hills but to hear them thank me was humbling.  Much love to you all!!!!

I covered Rich Hill, Tony covered Log Cabin Hill and then I stopped at Bailey’s Run to grab some photos.  Here are links to the albums on our online storage site.

I have loaded some pictures to our Facebook page (link below) – feel free to tag yourself in any pictures loaded.  I obviously can’t load 1,400 pictures to Facebook but I’ve selected a few that I enjoy.  If there is a picture in our online site that you’d like to see on Facebook, please message us and I’d be happy to put it on for you.

The Platts Family {Pittsburgh Family Photographer}

We had such a great time with the Platts family.  TONS of laughs and craziness!  I had sent a message to HJ after really going thru the pictures and asked him if he wanted pictures of Simon sticking his tongue out…cause that’s what I got from Simon.  These kids have such a carefree spirit – it was a blast!  Continued laughs as I worked my way thru the pictures.

HJ is an awesome graphic designer..AWESOME!!!  He’s responsible for our logo and and some of our marketing pieces.  He’s terrific – if you ever need any graphics work, please check out his Facebook page (click here) or message me for his contact information.

Simon is such a joy!!  And a hoot…

If you know Sara and HJ, you know how perfect the below picture is!!!

Boudoir – I’m ready!!

I [Maura] am now fully booking boudoir photo shoots.  This is an exciting venture for me and I’m extremely enthusiastic to bring this type of photography to our clients.  I love the response I get from boudoir – I want women to feel and look good.  I also love the reaction I get from the boyfriends/fiances/husbands – imagine the look on their face when they see a beautiful album of drop dead gorgeous photos of their significant other!! 🙂 And, I feel accomplished when I get the positive feedback.  I’m enjoying this so much and I want to share some quick shots from a recent boudoir.  Of course, all photos are used at the permission of my clients.

For more information on boudoir, please visit the boudoir section of Our Services and also check out the Boudoir FAQs!

Mommy & Me – Monica & Callie {Pittsburgh Portrait & Family Photographer}

Sadly, it’s our last Mommy & Me.  And, boy we ended with a good one!!!  I’ve never seen a mother and daughter laugh as much as Monica and Callie.  It was an effort to get a “serious” picture of them!  They have such a great spirit and it was a treat to spend some time with them!
