Personal Branding and Business Portraits for Amanda Acker

Spring and Summer mini sessions in Pittsburgh’s Mellon Park.

I had a very inspiring client whose story I’d like to share. Coming from a past of drug abuse, homelessness, and being a formerly incarcerated person, Amanda Acker has broken through and was able to let the good things into her life. Amanda is now on a mission to inspire and motivate people who have had a difficult past. Her core message is that we are stronger than we think and can have the life we imagine regardless of our past.

Family Mini Session in Pittsburgh for Lauren Perlis

Mini sessions in Pittsburgh’s Mellon Park.

It was a pleasure to meet Laurel Perils and her family on a bright sunny morning in Mellon Park. The kids really enjoyed running around and the parents’ task was to react quickly when an opportunity to pose as a family presented itself. I had to be fast enough to find myself in the right place at the right time, expose, compose, focus and press click. No pressure. ))
