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!
It was many months in the making, but I finally got the chance to hang out with the Coryells and photograph their awesome family. Their little guy is so much fun and is pretty much always smiling anytime I see him, so it was fun to explore catching some of his expressions and moments with his mom & dad. Enjoy some highlights below!
What a wonderful way to begin a new chapter in Give & Take: Pittsburgh.
We’ve officially settled into our new world here, but it’s amazing to get to meet the fantastic people who live here.
This past weekend I got the privilege of joining the Perry’s in their home to document the simple moments of life together. More and more I find these kinds of moments, the small interactions, conversations, and building blocks of our lives, are way more valuable than those big, momentous ones. Getting to join the Perry’s was such a pleasure, and their family has so much spunk and joy and love for one another.
Looking forward to helping document more moments like these around Pittsburgh in the months and years to come.
The Roges are the dearest of friends. Some people when you meet them you know they are just of the highest kind of human and you just want them in your life as much as possible. This is the Roges. Genuine, intelligent, present, gracious, hilarious, joyful. I'm grateful to have them as friends and for the opportunity to photograph their beautiful family.
