If you're dreaming of beautiful lake views for your senior pictures, Moraine State Park is in my opinion your best choice near Pittsburgh! Known for its wide-open spaces, peaceful shoreline, and stunning sunsets, Moraine is the only real lake location within an hour of the city where you can capture authentic, artistic senior portraits, which you know are my favorite type!

Heidi is amazing! She's able to get your real kid and makes him/her feel comfortable enough to capture their true selves.

I have had Heidi do senior portraits for my second kid & they are wonderful. We have done both the long (3+ hours with multiple locations & pick up & drop off) & the short, 1-hour sessions based on my girls’ preferences. Each session has given me priceless photos to last a lifetime. Heidi’s communication is timely, organized & clear so that you know what to do each step of the process. She is great at making the kids relax & play along, even for that child who couldn’t care less about senior pics, which shows in the final images. Heidi’s editing style is not over done & the real person, not a bunch of makeup or strange lighting, shines through. Needless to say, I am a huge fan & 10/10 recommend Larger than Life Photography.

Larger Than Life has photographed 2 of my graduating Seniors and will hopefully photograph my final 2. The quality and care taken to make sure my Seniors have pictures they can be proud of and we can all enjoy for the rest of our lives cannot be matched. Heidi makes the whole experience easy and fun!

Heidi was wonderful, welcoming and professional all at once! She made my somewhat shy daughter feel immediately at ease. She’s kind with a great sense of humor. And most importantly takes amazing photos!! It was really cool and fun to watch her work! It was very obvious she knows her craft!

She communicated well; worked with our schedule and gave great communication before we took the photos. During the photo session she was prepared, directive in a helpful way, creative in choosing different poses and settings in a very efficient manner. She was very natural in interacting with Daniel who is not the most keen photo subject. AND the photos are wonderful! Highly recommend Heidi as a photographer; hope to do family photos sometime soon!
