Interview with a Pittsburgh Mom | Pittsburgh Baby Photographer

I love to photograph a baby with a joyful smile and long lashes. Ok, actually I love photographing any baby and find something to love about every single one! This baby girl happened to have beautiful lashes and lots of adorable smiles to share with me the other day during her in-studio photo session. Her parents brought along her favorite toy for her to watch and dressed her in two beautiful dresses to add a little variety to her portraits. Before the session, her mother shared with me a couple of photos she had pinned in Pinterest. Since a picture says a thousand words, it's always helpful to see a favorite image or two before a session to make sure we are on the same page.
