Meet Your Photographer
The camera matters less than the person holding it. Here's who you'll be spending your session with.
Jana
Jana photographs families and high-school seniors across Pittsburgh’s South Hills, where she lives with her own busy family. She believes the best photos happen in the in-between moments — the piggy-back ride, the shared laugh, the quiet hand-hold — not in stiff, everyone-look-at-the-camera rows.
Sessions with Jana are relaxed by design. She keeps direction light, lets kids be kids, and works in the warm evening light that makes Pittsburgh’s parks and neighborhoods glow. Most families tell her the session felt less like a photo shoot and more like a family outing that happened to be documented beautifully.
When she’s not behind the camera, you’ll find her exploring South Park with her kids — which is also how she knows every good photo spot in the South Hills.
Pittsburgh Family Photography partners with talented local photographers to serve families across the Pittsburgh area. Your session is photographed by Jana.
Working Together
What is your photography style?
Warm, natural, and lightly directed. Sessions are built around real interaction — walking, playing, snuggling in — with just enough guidance that everyone knows what to do. The goal is photos that look like your family, not a template.
How far in advance do sessions book?
Three to six weeks for most of the year; more for October fall color and late-summer senior golden hours. Email is the fastest way to check current availability.
How do we get in touch?
The contact form is the quickest path — it goes straight to [email protected] and we'll be back with next steps.
