Molly | A North Shore Senior Session | Pittsburgh Photographer

Senior Portraits
Written By Kathryn Hyslop

Molly rocked her session!  We went to the North Shore first, to capture the city skyline, yellow bridges, and the water steps.  Afterwards we drove up to Phipps Conservatory and Schenley Park to capture a more natural vibe.  Sunset came quickly, so we ended the night with dance pictures in front of Phipps.

The Grand Estate Wedding | Jamie & Ben

I wasn’t the original wedding photographer for Jamie & Ben’s big day, but their photographer ended up in labor a few weeks early, so I stepped in to cover. It ended up being an incredible day, filled with family and friends celebrating in the best way. The Grand Estate is one of my favorite venues, and it was so nice to work there again!

Pittsburgh Lifestyle Newborn Session | Jack

This family was a referral from some current clients of mine, and it turns out they live less than a mile from my home! It was so nice to both welcome Jack to the world with some newborn photos, and meet some new neighbors. Their home was perfect for photos, and we popped into almost every room!

Fall Oakland Engagement Session | Sarah & Colin

Sarah told me that they wanted to just have fun for their engagements, so we frolicked through the tall grasses in Schenley Park. The best photos always happen when you’re willing to act silly and just go with the flow. We ended their session at Mellon Park, which is timeless for a Pittsburgh engagement.
