About Natalia
Hi!! I'm Natalia
It's not that hard to say. Tala is okay too if you can't make it work. Sometimes people just can't and that's ok.
I have been a photographer in the Pittsburgh area since 2007. Starting with families and newborns and moving to weddings full time in 2013.
Currently my focus has been shifted back to studio work - Newborns, families, seniors, brand, boudoir, headshots.
I aspire to create beautiful imagery to be proudly displayed as centerpieces in your home.

About Natalia
What's the best part of your job?
I absolutely love watching families grow. Some of the babies I photographed as newborns I am about to capture as seniors.
From engagements through the wedding to the birth of the first, second third child. Nothing warms my heart more.
But the best, best part of my job - SQUISHY babies. OMG I love newborn babies. I think it's because I have 3 younger siblings. I love posing them, cuddling them. Dressing them.

About Natalia
When I'm not working
I spend my time hanging out with my husband and our adorable Morkie Eddie. We like to play Zelda & Mario and riding bikes.
We also spend a great deal of time cooking - ok well I spend pretty much no time cooking as B is a chef- literally and makes all my delicious meals for me. I am spoiled. My time in the kitchen involves getting in the way, tasting, helping some and cleaning.
In my down time I enjoy painting and reading.

About Natalia
Ideal Client (turns to a friend)
I am thankful for every person who gives me the opportunity to tell their story no matter the length.
I am especially drawn to the weirder people of the world. As a fellow weirdo I love geeking out on random subject with new friends.
I also love the individual who knows exactly what they want and either knows how to achieve it and just needs professional help or knows what they want - kinda but more so doesn't know how to achieve it.
