A 10-min fall mini-session, natural light only
I needed to do a 10-min fall mini-session photo challenge, natural light only, any place, any time. So I asked my favorite model in the world to pose for me in our backyard. It was raining really hard this week but there was a short window yesterday when we could go outside and do it. Love these impromptu moments.

Isabella joined the musical to make her high school experience complete before heading to Penn State to become a Nurse Anesthetist. Besides theater, Isabella was the captain of the school’s cheer team and played Softball outside of school. In her free time, Isabella writes and releases music with her producer. Way to go, Izzie! All the best in all your new beginnings!
Portraits of Ella
Ella performed as Leaf's Mom and was also the show’s scenic designer at Sewickley Academy’s senior school musical “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee”. While this was her ninth Senior School production, she hadn’t acted since the 5th grade, and was usually backstage as an irreplaceable part of the tech crew.
Stay tuned for Ella’s studio portraits in her ice-skating costumes!

Actor’s Portfolio for Zoe
Zoe was a thunderstorm on stage. You couldn’t look anywhere else when she was on stage. She played Yente and was the embodiment of a busybody and a matchmaker in the most hilarious way.
Her other interests are playing golf, extreme board gaming, and writing cool music at Vanderbilt.
Actor’s Portfolio for Ian
Ian played Lazar Wolf in Sewickley Academy’s Fiddler on the Roof. When watching Ian on stage, I kept coming back to the thought that he looks a lot like Pierre Bezukhov from Leo Tolstoy's “War and Peace”, specifically in Sergey Bondarchuk’s screen adaptation, when he’s saying “When our lives are knocked off course we imagine everything in them is lost. It is only the start of something new and good. As long as there is life there is happiness. There is a great deal, a great deal still to come.”
Actor’s Portfolio for Grace
Three more features from Sewickley Academy’s Fiddler on the Roof.
Grace played Yussel, the town hatter. Can you tell it was her first time being in the cast of a show?
Actor’s Portfolio for Nikki
Nikki’s interests besides theater are painting, singing, and playing the piano. Artistic people always have more than one talent. It is always entertaining to watch dynamics between the actors’ ensemble behind the stage and Nikki always, always radiates this kind warm aura that makes at ease people around her.
Actor’s Portfolio for Felicia
Felicia trains at the Pittsburgh CLO Academy and radiates this professional actress confidence both behind the scenes and on stage. She performed Chava in Sewickley Academy’s senior school musical “Fiddler on the Roof” and she added depth and multidimensionality to her character, so vulnerable and strong at the same time.
Actor’s Portfolio for Alex
Here’s another brilliant performance by Alex in Sewickley Academy’s senior school musical “Fiddler on the Roof”. If there’s an emotional scene on stage, her face is always the one you look at. Bravo, Alex!
Actor’s Portfolio for Jayne
Jayne is a semi-professional actress already. She’s been involved in PAC and CLO productions and her favorites are Annie Jr. and The Sound of Music. In “Sewickley Academy’s “Fiddler on the Roof’“ she portrays Bielke, so gentle and fragile. Jayne has a beautiful voice and I can’t wait to hear her sing again.
Actor’s Portfolio for Mira
Throughout the years, Mira has played fascinating characters: an asylum patient, a fairy, a loving nun, an intelligent girl, and a teapot. This time she is portraying Tzeitel, the oldest daughter of Tevye (Ibrahim) and there was a hurricane of emotions every time Mira was on stage.
By the way, Mira was voted “Most likely to study before and after the test” in the yearbook. I’m sure this trait was crucial in success on stage and everywhere else.
Actor’s Portfolio for Catherine
Catherine has been involved in eight Sewickley Academy productions, including The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. In “Fiddler on the Roof”, she had a lead role as Golde, the matriarch of the family and her witty and hearty wife and mother of 3 girls character was very relatable.
I was delighted to read her bio where she thanks her mom for “being a superstar and supporting her love of theatre!”
Susan, you did a great job as a mother!
