Mark & Maria have probably given me the greatest compliment that anyone could give a photographer…they actually CHANGED THEIR WEDDING DATE so that I was available to photograph it!!! They are such a fun couple, and their engagement session shows it. It was pretty cold outside when we captured these images, but they were so close and snuggly that I don’t think they even noticed! This June wedding is going to be so much fun to shoot; I love it when couples give us free rein, and we will be shooting in lots of cool urban places in Pittsburgh for this one.

Julie and her husband have their hands full with four very active children and the daily demands of work and family, so it was important to them to have a family photo session to capture this period in their lives. And who couldn’t help but smile and feel that it’s all worth it when you see these precious faces???

I only managed to get my camera out ONCE the whole weekend, when Jim & I took them to the playground. I think you can tell a lot about their personalities from these!

This is the son of some friends of ours…dad Don is in Daybreak with Jim. They live in eastern PA so it wasn’t really convenient for them to come out here for senior pictures. When we were in Line Lexington in September for the last little Daybreak gig, though, we grabbed some quick shots just around the church grounds, fighting the wind and drizzle the whole time. I just loved this cornfield shot!
