    Went here on a Sunday to get some family/baby Christmas photos and had an appointment at 2:20 (we…read morearrived at 2:00 to check-in). At 3:30 PM we were finally called for our photo. This is ridiculous and unacceptable on so many levels. First, what's the purpose of an appointment if it means NOTHING. Second, these are children you'r dealing with. Adults can't tolerate waiting for over an hour...how do you think babies and toddlers are going to handle the wait. My 8 month old would have been fine if we actually got in for our photo shoot around 2:20 but by 3:30 PM he was past due for a nap and not a happy baby. Luckily, my older nephews and niece handled the wait better but still unraveled towards the end. Third, could they hire more incompetent staff?! I get it, you're flustered, there's a ton of kids and adults but some organization to your process might help. Oh and it might also help if your online/advertised appointment times weren't 10 minutes when in actuality it takes at least 30 minutes for a photo shoot from beginning to end. I did notice that parents love to have 2-3 outfit changes (we didn't have any) and this form of torture for their kids doesn't last 10 minutes...it's more like 30+ minutes. If you're going to allow people to schedule in 10 minute increments then be a little more diligent in enforcing that time for each group and cut out the nonsense of multiple outfit changes when you have back to back appointments. Finally, we were asked to come back in 20 minutes to view the photos. When we came back (20 minutes later) we had to wait an additional 20 minutes and remind the staff we were waiting. HORRIBLE experience and never going back to get holiday photos at this studio...or any Picture People studio if it's like this.

    We had a wonderful experience. Unfortunately, I do not remember the photographer's name, but she…read moredid a great job. We got a beautiful family photo and a lovely photo of our 2 month old daughter at a very reasonable price. I could tell the photographer loved her job. I would definitely go back. Thank you!

    This is a really cool park near Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, and Target around Upper St. Clair that I…read morelike to stop at whenever I'm in the area. The trail is great for beginners or if you just want a quick jog. There are several benches you can sit down on along the way, plus a tree stump in the woodsy part that you can also sit on to rest. It's a very well maintained trail that smells like freshly cut wood chips, and has a nice variety of terrain. I didn't see any dog poop (it's a no-dog park) and no litter at all, which the multiple trash cans around the loop definitely help with. While a good portion of the trail has the wood chips, some areas could use a bit more. After rain, a few spots can get muddy and it can get a little marshy in the grassy part where there is no trail. The outer loop is about 1.2 miles, and there are several spots where the trail branches off. There's a more "woody" section and a more "grassland" section, which keeps it interesting. It's also not hard to find parking at the church across the street. There's a lot of birds chirping and tons of squirrels and bunnies, and every once in a while you'll spot deer. Inside the barn fence there are lambs and sometimes horses, which is a nice touch. Also kind of cool is that there are wild chive plants around this trail which is common in the Pittsburgh area, and you'll find some growing in the park if you know what to look for.

    This place is incredible. We stopped today for their Community Open House event, and even though I…read morehave been here in the past, it is always nice getting to see it again. The old house, and farm are really special, and I am so glad that the Upper St. Clair Historical Society maintains these buildings and property so we can occasionally get to visit and see how things used to be. Today they had all kinds of activities going on, from hayrides, petting zoo, sheep shearing, cow milking, yarn spinning, beekeeping, and of course tours of the historic house, barn and outbuildings, all of which are like a museum. This place was well worth the price of admission . . . FREE, but the suggested donation was $5 per person.

    Working with Holly is always a guaranteed great time. My husband (like many men) was not looking…read moreforward to taking our first family photos. He didn't want to get dressed up and was worried about the kids misbehaving. As soon as we got started, all of those worries went out the door. We left the shoot with my husband saying "that was fun, make sure to schedule our next shoot a little sooner." That's what Holly brings to her photo shoots...FUN!!! She is amazing in the way she listens to her clients and is patient with them. She understands what is means to work with kids and doesn't sweat the small stuff. At the end of it all, you're left with an amazing experience and great photos. She captured the individual personality of all of my kids which is not always easy. I have been fortunate to work with Holly on a variety of shoots and not once was I made to feel uncomfortable or rushed. She welcomed my ideas and thoughts and if at anytime I wasn't sure of something she took the time to explain things. Our family loves Holly and we were truly heartbroken when she moved. She was the only choice when it came to being our resident family photographer. If you have the good fortune to work with her, please do so. You won't regret it.

    Holly is awesome! She worked with us on a date to have our photos taken around the holidays. It was…read morefreezing outside so she quickly worked with us and our pictures came out amazing. We actually ended up using one for our wedding invitations. She is well priced and we had plenty of images to choose from. Definitely would recommend!
