I can't explain how much I love watching my families grow over the years. I have been photographing Logan's sisters for a few years now and having the chance to watch the newest baby of the family grow up, too, is so heartwarming. I honestly love the families that I work with and become closer friends with them through every session. Logan is such a sweet little one. She has the brightest eyes and smile. She wasn't the biggest fan of the cake, (I'm sure that will change) but still gave us so many cute expressions! Isn't she literally just a doll? Plus I got to do one of my favorite themes, Alice in Wonderland. I love it so much. My wedding shower was Mad Hatter tea party themed, so you know I'm biased, but her adorable dress and faces made it perfection. Congrats to her parents for bringing ANOTHER gorgeous little one into the world! You know I'm all about that girl power (4 sisters!!!!). I can't wait to watch Logan continue to learn from those beautiful big sisters and vice versa. Happy first birthday, Logan! <3

When I mention birth photography, most people are amazed and say, "That's a thing??" YES IT IS A THING, and it is amazing. You do not understand what rockstars moms are until you witness a birth. I absolutely love love loved getting to photograph these moments, starting with before baby Claire arrived, soaking in the anticipation, pain, excitement, support, and love in the room. Corrine and Ben were so happy and sweet. I have never seen a more beautiful mom in labor. Like, that's not even fair. My feet were comparable to an elephant's and she was glowing. They were cracking jokes and squeezing hands through the contractions. Ben was giving the perfect amount of support, cheering Corrine on with the promise of a Mad Mex feast post labor. I mean, that's definite motivation in my book. The actual pushing was truly about 3 minutes long, which was incredible. Then, there she was: that sweet, wrinkly, screaming, new, beautiful, tiny human. Claire was perfect the moment she entered the room and there was so much love surrounding her. Being invited into an experience like this requires a lot of trust, grace, and compassion on both ends. I am so thankful to have been given those things and more by Corrine and Ben. Welcome to the world, little one. You have some amazing people around you for this wild ride. Congratulations again to this sweet family! <3
I loved meeting this GORGEOUS family at their Fresh 48 hospital session at Magee Women's Hospital in Pittsburgh. I can't get over how beautiful they all are, right? Baby DeAngelo was brought into the world a bit earlier than his original due date, and we were all so thrilled to meet him. I know he and his pup sister, Shiloh, are going to be best buddies. I can't wait to watch you grow! <3
It is always so fun when people you know start having babies and they choose you to photograph those special first days! Little Lexi was such a happy bub and came right in time for Valentine's Day! Her momma wanted to incorporate a special family blanket and Lexi loved snuggling up in it! She even gave us some wide-eyed snaps mixed in with her sleepy images. What a sweetie! Congrats to her parents and enjoy this first crazy year! <3
We did it! We survived the first year and so did Eliza! Huzzah! But really, what a crazy and amazing year it has been. This little bug has brought so many smiles and giggles into our home that it is hard (and weeeeeird) to even remember a time when she wasn't here. In my true fashion, I forgot to share these images, but ya know: Life+2 businesses +baby= brain overload
That's real math. So here are some pics I snapped for her cake smash, which obviously had to be Groundhog's Day themed (that's the day of her birth!), followed by a splash that sends a shout out to her best bud, Elmo and some of her fave toys. Thanks for following our journey with Eliza Lou the past year, and I apologize in advance for the never ending spam to come. Are you looking to have a specially designed theme for your little one's birthday? Click here to give me a shout and we can create something awesome together! Happy days!

Joe & Jenna's Pittsburgh Birth Story Photography- {Lovely Day Events Pittsburgh Photography}1/31/2019 Most people don't consider birth photography if they are having a planned c-section. In thinking back to my c-section, it was honestly a super-fast, crazy, blur after being in labor for twenty hours. I so wish I would have had someone there to document my entire experience, as it was my first baby and mom-brain has made me forget most of it. So I was pumped to be able to document this for a good friend from high school, on the birth of their second child. I was not allowed into the OR and little buddy had to take a quick elevator ride downstairs, as they thought he needed to be in the NICU. However, he changed his mind and decided he wanted mom and dad to hold him for the first time, and I got the chance to capture that with images and video. Any form of birth, be it a natural birth or planned c-section is a monumental and life-changing experience. There is so much that happens in that short amount of time, and it is easy to forget their tiny feet or the feeling that first time you get to have skin to skin. I am so in love with capturing birth stories and can't wait to provide these types of memories for so many new moms this coming year. Congratulations, Joe and Jenna. He is nothing but perfect. <3 CategoriesAll 1st Birthday 2018 Weddings Babies Baby Baby Photographer Baby Photography Big Brother Big Sister Birth Photography Birth Stories Birth Story Cake Cake Smash Children's Photography Church Wedding Family Family Photography Football Forbes Hospital Greensburg Wedding Photographer Kolton Labor And Delivery Lovely Day Events Lovely Day Events Photography Magee Women's Hospital Mama Bear Maternity Maternity Photography Mercy Hospital Monroeville Monroeville Newborn Photographer Monroeville Wedding Photographer Murrysville Murrysville Newborn Murrysville Newborn Photographer Murrysville Wedding Photographer Newborn Newborn Photography Newborn Twins Penn State Photographers Near Me Photography Pittsburgh Pittsburgh Birth Photographer Pittsburgh Children's Photographer Pittsburgh Family Photographer Pittsburgh Family Photography Pittsburgh Hospital Birth Photographer Pittsburgh Hospital Photography Pittsburgh Newborn Pittsburgh Newborn Photographer Pittsburgh Newborn Photography Pittsburgh Photographer Pittsburgh Photography Pittsburgh Twins Pittsburgh Wedding Photographer Studio Veil Wedding Wedding Photography West Penn Hospital Winter Wedding Lovely Day Events Photography {Pittsburgh, Murrysville, Monroeville, Greensburg Wedding Photographer}I met Sarah and Doug a few years ago when I got the chance to photograph their sweet baby girl, Harper. Since then, I have been documenting them growing together as a family, so I was honored when they asked me to photograph their wedding. I loved the way they focused the day on their love, while including Harper as a big part of it. It is so important to remember that you are still people who deserve to honor your other relationships, too, when you have children. Their ceremony was in a GORGEOUS church with giant stained glass windows. Holy cow was it pretty. It was a rainy day, but we all know that's lucky and you literally would never even have known based on the fun everyone was having! I mean...Sarah's dad is a pretty sweet dancer!

I wanted to try an outdoor newborn session to switch it up a bit and this little man made it so easy for me! I loved watching his big sister love on him the entire session. It made my heart so full! Congratulations, guys! Did we just become best friends?? YEP!
I loved having the chance to capture this family in the last week in their first home before moving. Lifestyle sessions are a great way to capture pure emotion and your family enjoying doing things they love together, rather than just sitting and smiling at the camera. I love the interactions you can capture in these types of sessions. So sweet! Thanks for letting me into your home and wrestling "elbow drops". :) Taco Smash- Parker {Pittsburgh, Monroeville, Murrysville Child Photographer}-Lovely Day Events5/10/2018 {Pittsburgh, Monroeville, Murrysville Child Photographer}-Lovely Day EventsBaby Kendall -FRESH 48{Murrysville, Pittsburgh, Monroeville Newborn Photography-Lovely Day Events}4/24/2018 CategoriesAll 1st Birthday Babies Baby Baby Photographer Baby Photography Big Brother Big Sister Cake Smash Children's Photography Family Family Photography Football Kolton Lovely Day Events Lovely Day Events Photography Mama Bear Maternity Maternity Photography Monroeville Monroeville Newborn Photographer Murrysville Murrysville Newborn Murrysville Newborn Photographer Newborn Newborn Photography Newborn Twins Penn State Photography Pittsburgh Pittsburgh Children's Photographer Pittsburgh Family Photography Pittsburgh Newborn Pittsburgh Newborn Photographer Pittsburgh Newborn Photography Pittsburgh Photography Pittsburgh Twins Studio Pittsburgh, Murrysville, Monroeville Birth & Newborn PhotographyI took a long hiatus on blogging when we found out we were pregnant (thanks morning sickness :)), but now I am back and have SO much to share.
I am starting with one of my favorite experiences as a photographer in 2017. I had the opportunity to join a beautiful couple on the most precious life experience, bringing a baby into the world! Holy cow...you guys... it was incredible. There are literally no words to describe how amazing this was to see and get to capture for this family. I hope to have the chance to build this side of my business and photograph many more births in 2018. I wanted to share just a couple of my favorite images from this birth. <3 I have been photographing this family grow for over a year now! It is incredible watching babies and families grow and I feel so special to be able to keep documenting this growth. Kolton was such a dream in the studio and was such a chill little man! And of course, Ms. Kinsley was as adorable as ever. I hope she gives him kisses like that for the rest of time. <3 Baby Colton of Mars, PA <3Such a sweet family. There are some people you just meet and know they have so much love in their heart. Luca and Nicole could not wait to meet Colton, and neither could I! He was such a good, sweet baby. We did their session in their home and Colton was a sleepy and content mister. Of course we had to sneak in those PSU props for the future little Nittany Lion. Roar loud, Colton! Only a few spots left for our upcoming Spring Minis on April 1st at the new studio space in Murrysville! Your child will even get to meet the Easter Bunny! Email lovelydaypittsburgh@Gmail.com to get your spot!
Location- 4528 William Penn Highway, Murrysville, PA 15668 Your first baby (other than your puppy babies, of course) is such an exciting time! I absolutely loved photographing this gorgeous couple in their home to capture this special time before their little boy comes. Puppy brother was definitely a bit jealous and oh so photogenic. The weather wasn't quite cooperating to let us head outdoors, but who needs photos outside when you have such beautiful people to photograph? Plus, the nursery was way too cute to pass up getting some photos in there. I can not wait to meet this little one so soon...even if they are Penn State fans. :)
