Amy & Chad: Winter Mellon Park Maternity Photos

This maternity session at Mellon Park was a total dream to photograph! Amy and Chad are prepping to welcome their first child into the world in 2021, and Amy is a wonderful photographer here in the Pittsburgh area - so, naturally, maternity photos are the perfect way to celebrate!

Amy wore the loveliest green maxi dress for their photos (I adore maxi dresses for maternity sessions!), complimented by Chad’s blue suit, for a nice upscale look! And yes - Amy was a trooper in the cold with her short sleeves!!

Amy & Chad, thank you so much for the honor of celebrating with you during this sweet season of your lives! Congratulations to you both on becoming parents!

Leah & Connor: Moraine State Park Maternity Photos

Another dreamy fall maternity session is in the books, and on the blog today! And for another incredible couple - Leah & Connor, who I had the honor of photographing two years their gorgeous wedding day at the Morning Glory Inn! What an honor it is to get to continue celebrating my couples as they grow their families!

Leah & Connor, congratulations to you two! You will be amazing parents!!! ❤️

Amanda & Chris: Fall Maternity Photos at Moraine

I've had the privilege of photographing Amanda & Chris for their engagement, for their elopement, and now again as they continue to grow their precious family!

We had the most beautiful, bright & sunny fall evening for their photos. We started off at Cleland Rock (where there was so much gorgeous color!) and finished off at Moraine State Park, right on the shore, with some of the most beautiful light I’ve photographed all year!

What a joy it was to spend the evening catching up with these two!

Congratulations, Amanda & Chris! It is always such a treat to photograph you two!!

Marie & Stanley: Hartwood Acres Mansion Maternity Photos

All I can say is WOW! These two - they are incredible!! Not only are they incredible people who are going to be incredible parents - they are also incredible wedding photographers! So of course, when they emailed me asking for information about a maternity session… I was so, so honored!

They decided on Hartwood Acres for their session, and while we did use some of the mansion area, we used lots of the nature filled spots surrounding the mansion! The woods light up with the most magical, glowy light on a sunny day, so when I saw the sun peek out from behind the clouds as our session was about to begin, I was thrilled!

Congratulations on your growing family, Marie & Stanley! You are going to be incredible parents!!!

North Boundary Park Family Photos

I had the immense honor of taking photos for this sweet family to celebrate the announcement of a new little member to their growing family!

You may remember these two from their maternity session just a few short years ago celebrating baby number one (Sam!), who’s over a year old now! What a blessing it was to be able to celebrate with them again during this session.

We had the most beautiful, dreamy, golden light the morning of their session at North Boundary Park in Cranberry Township! We had originally planned for an evening session a few days prior, but a sudden, raging storm (that popped up on the radar just 20 minutes before their session was set to start!) forced us to reschedule. I have to say, though… I think it was for the best after seeing this final product! 😍And thankfully, the early morning runners, bikers, and walkers were kind enough to work around us!

Congratulations on the newest member of your family, Laura and Josh! (And Sam, of course! 😉) We are so excited for you guys!

Cassidy & Dylan: Golden Hour Farm Maternity Photos

You might recognize these two from their wedding feature on the blog just over a year ago! I was so incredibly excited when they reached out to let me know 1) that they were expecting their first child, and 2) that they wanted me to take their maternity photos! Photographing these two (+1!) for a third time and celebrate the new season they are stepping into was such an honor.

We were able to use the most beautiful private farm for their session, too! It was such a dream to photograph them there. A huge thank you to the owner for allowing us to use their gorgeous property.

Congratulations, Cassidy & Dylan! 💛

Molly & Ryan: Hartwood Acres Maternity Photos

Almost a year ago, I photographed Molly & Ryan’s wedding day (click here to check it out!) and now, less than a year later, here I am sharing my favorite photos from their maternity session!

One of my favorite questions to ask when meeting with couples to discuss their wedding day is what they are most looking forward to about being married (I like to throw some tough questions out there! ;) ). Though sometimes it’s a question that throws people off-guard (it’s definitely a big one!), Molly and Ryan didn’t even hesitate with their answer: they were so, so excited to start a family. It makes my heart so happy to know that they are getting to start this new adventure!

Molly & Ryan, congratulations on your little one! I couldn’t have been more honored to get to take these photos for you two (three!).

Baby B: Moraine State Park Maternity Photos

There's something so special about getting to see a couple get engaged, get married, and then start their family together! 💛

I am SO thankful to have had the pleasure of being a part of this season with Kayla & Colin as they start growing their family! They are just two of the sweetest people and are going to be the best parents. Congratulations, Kayla & Colin!!!

Baby H: Zelienople Maternity Photos

Emily & Sam are having a baby! 💛 And I had the immense pleasure of photographing them around the cutest town, Zelienople - which also happens to be where I live! Talk about a short commute 😉

A HUGE thanks to The Strand for changing their marquee to welcome the newest member of the Huff family! And a HUGE congratulations to Emily & Sam!!!
