Photographing new families brings me so much joy. I am a firm believer in documenting every stage of life, and it warms my heart thinking about this little girl looking back on these photos when she is grown. Working with babies often requires a short, 30 minute tops session, but I loved the photos we were able to get in this time frame. Peter’s Lake Park is one of my favorite spots in the South Hills to take pictures and it served as the perfect backdrop, even on this gloomy spring day.
