On a warm and sunshiny late fall day, I went on an adventure and took family photos with a mother and daughter as we explored the beautiful CMU (Carnegie Mellon University) campus in Oakland, PA.

You may have seen this little one before on my website because I have been photographing this sweet girl since she took her very first breath on the day that she was born! I love that I get to see her and her Mama every year for our annual photo session! It’s really special to me to do an annual photo session with a family, especially for my birth clients! I never take for granted that I was there on the day that this girl was born!

If you happen to come across a piano outside,
you definitely have to stop and play it!







If your kiddo is still small enough for piggyback rides,
then give ALL of the piggyback rides while you still can!












A bench with a wheel that goes in circles!?
Genius! We need more of these in Pittsburgh!


If you happen to discover a pile of leaves while walking,
then you definitely have to take the time to stop and JUMP into it!




And be sure to stop and appreciate all of the art that you find along the way!
