A Sunny Mini Session for Noah Robbins

Engagement Mini Session in North Park for Patrice Carter

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.
High School Senior Portraits for Morgan Snyder

Morgan wanted a variety of portraits to choose from for the yearbook and to make her senior year special. Mellon Park is beautiful in any season and Morgan got it all with the colorful flowers, warm weather and a bright sunny day.
