Pittsburgh Newborn Photographer | Outdoor Newborn Portraits | Baby Aidan

Those of us who live in Pittsburgh need no convincing that Pittsburgh is glorious in May. The city seems to alive after the always-too-long winter. We all come out of hibernation in May. The other thing that happens every May is–babies, babies, babies! For me, the month of May is always full of requests for outdoor newborn sessions. I love it!

Case in point: Baby Aidan, big brother Nolan, and Mom and Dad (Kaitlin and Bob). With a newborn, it’s not really necessary (or even a good idea) to go too far from home to get a great outdoor shot, especially during the nice weather. I chose the side steps of the family’s new home in Mt. Lebanon as the setting for these beautiful family portraits.

Then we moved inside for some more cuddly shots, and what could be more cuddly than bed?

Big brother Nolan and I are old friends, even though he’s only 18 months old. When Nolan was a newborn, Mom and Dad purchased the baby plan for him, and he just had his 12-month photo shoot just a few months ago. Here’s Big Brother Nolan as a newborn:

Nolan was a quiet baby, but since he has become a Big Brother, he has become the biggest chatterbox! He has a Baby Brother to talk to now! (Nolan calls baby Aidan “A”.)

This is definitely one of my favorite families, and I look forward to taking their photos as they grow!

Pittsburgh Newborn Photographer | Baby Palmer

by Missy•0

Baby Palmer was a complete doll for our newborn session at his Peters Township home this spring. We shot some of this session in the light, bright master bedroom and some of the images in the library for a moodier backdrop. The first thing I do for any session is look around the home for unexpected locations–you just never know what part of a home is going to make a great location for newborn photography!

This little handsome fellow already has some very cute outfits to wear for his session. It’s important that newborn clothes fit well but Palmer was a larger baby, so this was not an issue!

One of the many advantages to shooting a lifestyle newborn session in your home is that we can photograph your nursery–some mamas spend a lot of time and energy designing every detail, and believe me when I tell you that baby’s room is going to change a LOT in the months and years to come. Baby Palmer’s nursery is a neutral nautical theme with iron and wood accents. Love that iron crib!

Claire’s family prefers a simple & clean portrait session for the newborn portraits, which is perfect for my uncluttered style. We shot this session in my Pittsburgh photography studio.
