WHAT I DO
I come to your fields, photograph every athlete individually, handle all parent communication, deliver private online galleries, and donate a percentage of sales back to your league --
at no upfront cost to you.
That's it. No complicated contracts, no day-of chaos, no chasing coaches for rosters. Just a photography experience your families will actually love.
THE TRUTH IS...
Your Athletes Deserve Photos
That Actually Look Like Them.
Not a stiff lineup against a blue backdrop. Not a forced smile that nobody recognizes. I’m a full-time family photographer first — and I bring that same personality-forward approach to every single athlete I photograph.
I shoot on natural backgrounds — trees, fields, the actual environment where your sport lives. I focus on game faces, real energy, and the individual personality of each kid. The result? Photos that feel like a moment in time, not a school picture.
And I am deeply committed to communication — with your coaches, your parents, and your league — every step of the way.
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
A Personality-First Approach to
Sports Photos
Personality Over Posed
I work quickly and intentionally with each athlete to bring out who they actually are — the grit, the joy, the game face. No stiff “say cheese” energy here.
Natural Backgrounds
I shoot in natural settings — trees, fields, real environments. I don’t do composites or fancy backdrop systems, which keeps the look authentic and timeless.
Full Communication
I handle parent outreach from start to finish — prep emails, a custom landing page for your league, gallery delivery communication, and FAQ support so you don’t have to.
Individual Galleries
Every athlete gets their own private online gallery with 10–15 edited images to view and shop. No pressure to purchase — but a full product shop is available if they love what they see.
Curated Poses
I move through athletes efficiently with a handful of intentional poses — fast enough for high volume, thoughtful enough to deliver real variety per athlete.
Custom Products
Custom trading cards, prints, memory mates, magnets, bag tags and more — all ordered directly through the athlete’s private gallery from a professional photo lab.
"You're so talented! Our pictures turned out so incredibly, I wanna wallpaper my house with them!"

HOW IT WORKS
Simple for you.
Seamless for your families.
STEP 01
We Chat
Tell me about your league — sport, athlete count, timeline, and any logistics I should know. We'll figure out if it's a great fit.
STEP 02
I Organize Everything
I build the schedule, set up coach self-booking so they pick their own time slots, create a custom landing page for your league, and get parent communication rolling. You don't need to manage any of it.
STEP 03
Photo Day(s)
I show up ready. Athletes check in, I capture individual portraits and team photos, and I keep things moving efficiently — no chaos, no long lines.
STEP 04
Galleries Delivered
Within 1 weeks, every family receives their own private gallery with 10–15 edited images and access to the full product shop. I handle the delivery announcement too.
STEP 05
Your League Gets Paid
A percentage of gallery sales is donated directly back to your league. No extra work on your end — it just shows up as a thank-you for the partnership.
AN HONEST NOTE
I'm Not Your Typical Volume
Photographer -- and That's the Point.
I want to be upfront about what I am and what I'm not, so there are no surprises:
- I shoot on natural backgrounds, no composite backgrounds or fancy studios
- I don't do "pieced together" team photos -- teams get photographed together
- I'm subject to weather -- rain happens and we plan accordingly
- I over communicate and I'm personally invested in every league I work with
BEHIND THE LENS
Hey, I'm Danielle!
PITTSBURGH-BASED FAMILY + SPORTS PHOTOGRAPHER · MOM OF TWO · SIDELINE ENTHUSIAST
I’m a Pittsburgh-based family photographer, mom of two, and someone who fully understands how wild (and wonderful) life with kids can be. I love this new season of life as a sports mom and finding ways to cheer on my kids as they live their best life.
As a photographer, I specialize in capturing connection and personality. I’m not interested in stiff, awkward, forced-smile photos. I want to capture who your athlete actually is — their grit, their personality, their game face, their joy.
If your little athlete is anything like mine, they have big dreams. I’d love to help record some photos to match their vibe this season. They’ll love it and so will you when you look back years from now.
Looking forward to meeting you at the field!

Frequently Asked Questions
The earlier the better — especially for spring and fall seasons when demand is highest. I recommend reaching out at least a few months before your desired photo dates to allow time for scheduling, communication setup, and coach outreach.
I’ve built a scheduling system where coaches self-book their own time slots — no coordinator needed. I organize sessions over multiple evenings and weekends, with double-shooter capacity available for high-volume weekend sessions.
There’s no upfront cost to the league. Families purchase directly from their gallery — there’s never any obligation to buy. I donate a percentage of gallery sales back to the league as a thank-you for the partnership.
I don’t. I photograph athletes against natural backgrounds — trees, fields, and real environments. The look is authentic and editorial rather than the traditional studio backdrop. This is a key part of my approach and what makes the photos feel different.
Weather happens — especially in Pittsburgh! I work with leagues to build in makeup dates and I communicate any weather changes directly to families so coaches don’t have to manage it.
Galleries are delivered within 1 weeks of the photo dates. Families receive a notification with their gallery link and can view, download, and shop from there.
Any outdoor youth sport! I’ve worked with lacrosse and baseball/softball leagues and am open to soccer, football, field hockey, and more. If it’s played outside, I’d love to be there.
I build makeup dates into every league schedule. Families can reach out directly to me and I’ll get it sorted — no need to go through the coach or league administrator.
