sixty | Pittsburgh Professional Photography

Sixty….seconds that is. It all started a few days back when the snow began. It was really coming down. We haven’t had much around here which is not the norm. Actually can you believe I haven’t shot in the snow at all this season yet! So this was a must do! Off to the closet I went to see what we could whip together. Tone on tone- I knew that much . I really try to pay attention to keeping tonal harmony in my images. I love texture too and layering- so there ya have it. Some fur- brocade- and lace….crown that is.  You probably have noticed I shoot a lot with these beautiful crowns. Well- I think everyone should feel like royalty plus it is super fun!

If The Crown Fits is a beautiful little shop with all sorts of pretties for you princess. Clothes- check, snow- check, crown- check, happy child- well……..

Really it was pretty much over before it started. See that shot near the end of the set. Yep- that is my baby girl throwing really cold and wet snow.  It was all down hill from there. The stinging pain of frostbitten hands pretty much stinks more than anything

That’s it.

Wait- I lied. That wasn’t it. I was pretty discouraged by the screeches of my sweet girl, that when one of my best friends Taryn, from Blu Hippo Photography, came over she insisted that I go jump into some clothes and get in there.  How convenient to have a BFF be a photog ; – ) Since my girlie was still dressed and the baby had woken up game was on. At least for another 60 seconds.

small miracles | Pittsburgh Child photography

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!

A Look Back at 2011 | Pittsburgh Professional Photographer

 We are ringing in the New Year here at Munchkins and Mohawks.

I have been reflecting on such a wonderful year both personally and professionally.

We welcomed our third baby into our family this past spring.

 

The other two-well they are pretty amazing as well!

My little guy has made amazing strides this year- we are so proud of him.

And my middle- she is just a riot! Her personality definitely bloomed this year. One of a kind for sure!

and professionally. I am doing what I absolutely love-

styled portrait commissions.

I love creating art for families.

So now- going through 2011 in review. I selected one image from each session that spoke to me- my favorites, to share with all of you.

Now tell me  your favorites! Here is how it works………..
