Lavender and Love | NYC child and family photographer

Tiffany Bender — Tue, 02 Aug 2016 16:51:19 +0000

I love making pretty pictures in the New York City, but I also love finding gems outside the city limits. We found this adorable little lavender field an hour outside of NYC.

I kinda love to see kids being kids in wide open spaces. Plus I really really want my very own lavender farm….so you could say I was in my glory!

This was one of those days that it was spring in the light and winter in the shadows…..a day where the possibilities were all around.

Hope and excitement of new life were spilling over.

They have so many great things happening in their lives right now that it really is “like a bowl of cherries”

~now enjoy these treats~

OHHH! I almost forgot to tell you!!!!!!!

Remember how I said I was going to design on a dime? Rememer how I always say to rock what you have? Well maybe you don’t have a million dollars to style your session- or maybe there are no local stores for you to shop- well maybe, just mabe, all of this styling came right from

TARGET!!!!!!!
Like head to toe! All three family members with accessories and shoes plus another outfit for mom1 And guess what the best part was?

Everything in these looks combined was under $200. Okay $197 to be exact!!!!!!!!

Now get out there and rock what you’ve got!!!

I don’t take many maternity session, so when this session came about I had no idea how lucky I would be! The camera totally loves this chick! She is fun, gorgeous, and kinda obsessed with photography too. Love this girl! The rest of her beautiful family was icing on the cake!
The little boy was just the sweetest little thing ever. Super smart, like speaks three languages fluently- He is TWO!!!! And dad was totally cooperative. I am pretty sure I didn’t even get an eye roll the whole time!
I just loved spending the evening with them. We are so looking forward to heading back soon for baby number two…a surprise ; – )Enjoy!

I can not say enough about this family! I just love them. This gorgeous momma and I have enjoyed many photo shoots together- each time I enjoy it more..if that is even possible!!! We could chat all day not to mention the beautiful boys. Each of them so different, but equally as special. I am waiting on pins and needles to find about about this sweet number four. Shhhhhh- I gave her a little pink crown , just in case ; – )

Okay now on to the pictures. HERE is an image I blogged a few days back. Isn’t she glowing?!!!! Everyone should look like this pregnant, right?!!!!

All the images were edited with the new Lightroom RAW presets too .

small miracles | Pittsburgh Child photography

Tiffany Bender — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:55:36 +0000

It really is an everyday miracle.

A baby to be.

Even more astonishing when two little ones are being created all at once.

For those of you that follow Munchkins and Mohawks know that weeks of preparation go into preparing a shoot- from styling to location – hair and makeup coordination. It is quite the process.

So when an unexpected need to shoot ASAP comes up- we all kick it into high gear and pull together. With the help of my lovely crew….. Beth- our amazing stylist, Lisa Johnson- beauty enhancing makeup artist, and Ashely- my right hand girl….. we made this very special session happen. Thank you.

This couple could not be more deserving of little twin babes. He just adores her- it was so fun to be around them. They exude love for each other and their two little ones. These little babies have no idea of the love that they have in store for them. Blessed kiddos for sure.

So now as mom snuggles into the hospital for the duration-we wait to meet these little ones. I am so grateful that we were able to capture this exciting time of anticipation.

So stay tuned for their debut!
