Pittsburgh Newborn Photographer | Sunset Maternity Session at Moraine State Park

As a Pittsburgh newborn photographer, one of my favorite parts of my work is helping mothers-to-be feel beautiful, celebrated, and completely at ease — not just in the studio, but in stunning outdoor locations across Western Pennsylvania. While many of my sessions take place in my Bridgeville studio, I also love offering on-location maternity sessions that capture your story in a setting that feels dreamy, natural, and unique to you.

Creating the Perfect On-Location Maternity Session

When planning maternity portraits, I take care of every detail so you can simply relax and enjoy the experience. From my curated studio wardrobe, I hand-select outfits that flatter your bump and fit the overall mood you’re dreaming of — whether that’s romantic, modern, or bohemian. Together, we then choose the perfect location, whether it’s a sunlit field, an elegant garden, or one of Pittsburgh’s hidden beaches.

Catherine’s Dreamy, Beachy Maternity Session

For Catherine’s maternity session, she envisioned beachy vibes — something soft, relaxed, and full of warmth. While Pittsburgh isn’t exactly known for its oceans, we do have a few local beaches that provide the perfect backdrop. For her portraits, we chose the beach at Moraine State Park, where the golden sunset light set the scene for timeless and radiant maternity images.

I styled Catherine in flowing bohemian-inspired pieces from my wardrobe collection, and the result was everything we dreamed of. These portraits feel both serene and powerful, capturing her glow in such a meaningful chapter of life.

Why This Session Was Extra Special from a Pittsburgh Newborn Photographer

Catherine and I have known each other for many years, and I’ve photographed her through so many different seasons. To now document her maternity session felt incredibly special and such an honor. Even more exciting — I’ll soon be welcoming her back to my studio to capture her newborn session, completing the story we began at Moraine State Park.

Booking Your Maternity & Newborn Sessions

As a Pittsburgh newborn photographer, I always encourage mothers to book both their maternity and newborn sessions together for a seamless experience. Your maternity session celebrates this once-in-a-lifetime glow, while your newborn portraits preserve those fleeting first days with your baby. Whether in my Bridgeville studio or at a beautiful outdoor location, my goal is to give you timeless, heirloom portraits you’ll treasure for a lifetime.
