What a sweetheart Maren is.  Her eyes just keep getting bigger, and I love her playful and her serious expressions:

I love photographing siblings, perhaps because I come from a big family.  Matt and Carly were fun to hang out with and to photograph, and it was great to see that they seem to get along so well.

Intimate, beautifully landscaped Mellon Park:

Boden is a handsome boy, and getting more so every day!  Here he is with his parents and grandparents:

The leaves are gone, but this is what my studio looked like a few weeks ago…

I am late in posting this, but here are a few shots from Halloween:

It’s amazing how much Griffin and Matilda have grown.  I was lucky to photograph them on Matilda’s first birthday, which happened to be Halloween!  The pumpkins were just right for the occasion.

Fall can be such a wonderful time for portraits, and I really enjoyed meeting this family.  The three girls were great, and I loved the yellow leaves!

It was my privilege to get to know Darlene and Robert and photograph their wedding.  I loved Darlene’s exuberance and their joy from being together.

Check out these shoes!  Plus a beautiful hair accessory:

Congratulations Darlene and Robert!

Last week I photographed Torre at the studio.  She is a senior in high school this year, and I was so impressed by her poise and grace.
