The blessing and joy of family and friends… It was so much fun to get to spend time with the wonderful Antiliz Family in one of my new favorite parks in Pittsburgh, Highland Park. With the speed of life these days, it is always a joy to get to spend some time with the Antiliz family, and we had a lot of fun on a beautiful fall afternoon. Enjoy a few photos from our time together.
Watch out, cause soon these photos will be of a famous musician. Jack is oozing with talent and groove and I can’t wait to hear what he does as he heads off to study music in college. Enjoy a few shots from our senior photo shoot in a couple spots around Pittsburgh.
This is a special one. I love all of the shoots I get to do, but when you get the opportunity to photograph folks you know and love so much, it is a fun and rewarding challenge. This is my family - my in-law family - that we get to share life with week to week. It is such a blessing for my family to get to be near these folks and we’re grateful our kids are getting to build memories and life together a bit. I’ve taken many-a-photo of them over the years, but we had never done a “formal” photoshoot. With the arrival of their 5th, it was time for a new family portrait and on a gorgeous spring day we spent some time at their lovely new home to get a few photos. Enjoy some photos of one of the most thoughtful, energizing, welcoming, hilarious, loving, and wise families I know…
Isabelle and her family have been such incredible friends since we moved to Pittsburgh. She has also been a wonderful help with our girls, and it was so much fun to do a senior photo shoot to capture some of the last of our beautiful fall colors and the amazing skyline of Pittsburgh. Isabelle is a great banjo player and I encouraged her to bring it along for our trip into the city. We laughed that she’s now got some photos for her debut album.
These are quite extraordinary times… but in the midst of these tough days, it is so wonderful to celebrate new life and love and the joy of family. The Bryans are some of our dear friends that we’ve made since making our home in Pittsburgh, and they recently welcomed their first child into their family. Both Ethan and Emily are incredibly thoughtful, warm, and gracious friends and getting to see their love of parenting and their little guy has been such a joy - even if it’s mostly been from afar. Enjoy a few photos from my recent time with them at their new home right on the other side of our neighborhood.
It takes time in a new place to build friendships, especially in the stage of life our family is in right now. But we’re so grateful for the friendship of the Paices, and how they have so quickly come alongside us in life as friends. They are such a fun and thoughtful family, and we had some easy connections around our shared love of good food and good music. It was wonderful to hang out with them a bit and get to photograph their family. Enjoy a few highlights!
