Gio's Dino-mite! // Pittsburgh Children's Photographer
If there’s one thing I know about myself, it’s that I’m wordy. Not just a little bit: wordy, wordy, WORDY! In another life, before I realized that my heart was with photography, I was going to school for journalism. I’m always trying to do things justice by using the perfect words and going into great detail. As my volume has greatly increased at the studio (a wonderful blessing!), I’ve realized that I unfortunately need to reel in my blogging quite a bit if I’m going to keep up with blogging every session (which I really want to maintain). A lot of you have mentioned to me that you really enjoy reading them, and that’s incredibly humbling. I appreciate you all so much and appreciate any time you’ve spent reading my musings. I hope to keep up with this indefinitely.
A lot of you are familiar with my studio ambassador, Lynzee, and her family. They’re wonderful people and I enjoy every minute I spend with them. Little Gio is Lynzee’s baby brother, and this was the first time that I had the opportunity to photograph him. He is such a trip, ALL boy, and full of personality and spitfire. I always appreciate when my clients let me step outside of the box and do something more unexpected. I’ve had a lot of fun playing around with colored lighting recently, and I wanted to use that for Gio’s session and give the whole thing a bit of a moody vibe. Gio delivered a wide range of expressions for me, from big smiles all the way to tiny crocodile tears. But, he was of course happiest when in the company of his army of beloved dinosaurs.
Three words to describe the session: Cute, Fun, Colorful
(All of my portrait clients choose three words from a list of how they'd like to describe their finished images. You can click on any of the three words at the bottom of this post by the little tag icon to see past sessions that chose the same word. You can also see how different combinations of words leads to the creation of different images.)
