Little newborn Dominic!! This is the baby I had been waiting 9months for! I photographed my best friend through the stages of her pregnancy and *finally* got my hands on baby Dominic. We had a great session, even if Dominic was more interested in eating than anything I was trying to do with him. He wasn’t much interested in sleeping either, but I still managed to get a few shots. 🙂

I had so much fun during this mini session. Such a great and fun family with little Lola just bursting with personality. I loved being able to capture it for them. Mom was due in a month so naturally we included some maternity shots as well. And how gorgeous was she? Seriously. Perfect baby belly, gorgeous and fun family, great light. I really loved this session.

Meet the winners of my free session giveaway for reaching 1,000 fans on my Facebook page! They chose a family session and it was exciting all around I think! This gorgeous little girl is Lucy. How much fun I had photographing her and her beautiful family. Such a sweet family and little Lucy was just overflowing with personality. She just didn’t want to sit still so we followed her lead and had fun with it. It was a really great session with some very pretty light. Can’t ask for much more!

Meet our local hawk. And by local I mean he literally hangs near our house and we see him flying overhead daily. He’s pretty cute isn’t he? I mean, when you overlook the whole “snags-baby-animals-to-eat” thing. But that’s nature right? Or so my husband tells me when I snark at this hawk for being mean. 🙂

You can imagine the surprise my husband (and dog) experienced this morning when going outside for the morning dog walk. The hawk decided it would be a great way to say good morning by practically buzzing my husbands head. He then landed on our backyard fence and stayed there all morning.

What’s a photographer to do? Get her camera naturally. At first I was a little worried about what he would do, but it turns out he just stared at me the whole time.

“S’up?”

He is kinda cute. And huge.

Dance recitals mean dance portraits. My daughter is in dance class and absolutely loves it. She loves being on stage and thrives on the attention. Stage fright is definitely not an issue with her. This was year two of classes and I realized the DAY BEFORE her recital that I still had not taken her official dance portraits. Slacker mom indeed. So I set up all my equipment (which was a BREEZE compared to getting her dressed), dressed my daughter, did her hair (oh the ballet bun…gah), and took her official portraits. She was thrilled. Mommy was not quite so thrilled (seeing as I’d be getting her all dressed again the NEXT DAY for her recital *cough*ballet bun*cough*), but I can blame no one but myself.

Until next year ballet bun…

I had the pleasure of photographing this First Communion session at Lock Ridge Park in Alburtis PA back in May. This was my first time at this park and boy was it beautiful. So many places to inspire beautiful pictures, and of course I had the PERFECT model for those portraits. We went all over the park -even the places that required a small hike to access. Didn’t matter that she was in a gorgeous white dress, she was fearless. Between the ruins, the bridge, the old mine tracks and the flower garden there was no end to the beauty we found here.

This was such a fantastic session and I really hope to make it back to Lock Ridge Park again soon. I bet fall sessions would be gorgeous here too! 😉

My first little gender reveal! When I found out my best friend was pregnant, naturally I was thrilled for her, but after that faded all I kept thinking was “oh the things we can do during her pregnancy!” (is that normal? I assume for fellow photogs it’s a normal reaction…Yea, I’ll go with that…) So I’ve photographed her bump a few times so far, but I also wanted to do a fun gender reveal! We kept it simple, but still fun! Here’s a little share from our gender reveal session.

Oh sweet, sweet Jude! My third NJ mini session. What personality! And what a smile! This is the second time I’ve have the pleasure of shooting sweet Jude and it was just as much fun as the first time. He has such life in him, and is such a sweet little man!

As soon as he saw me this day I heard him say “Is that the photographer?” and then he ran over to give me a big hug. Tell me, how do you not melt into a huge puddle at that moment? He remembered me from our twinkle light mini sessions last December. <3 <3 What a heartbreaker. Just was in his element at this outdoor park which was where we met for our mini session-it was all I could do to keep up with him. I love that though, because I was able to capture Jude as the active and adorable little man that he is. I even got mom and dad in on some portraits, which is something I always, always, ALWAYS insist on with parents. 🙂 What a gorgeous family! Jude gave me so much variety at our session -mostly because he didn't stop moving once the whole time. And I don't think he stopped smiling the whole time either. 🙂

This lifestyle shoot came about in a backwards kind of way. Originally it was a day my daughter actually WANTED to go outside and take pictures. I had an idea in my head for the shot I wanted so I quick dressed her and we got ready to go outside. Except when we looked out the window we noticed it was pouring rain. I decided we’d wait for a little while and see if the rain would stop.

At first Maddie was ok with waiting.

But as the waiting continued she started getting impatient and sad.

So what’s a mommy to do? Say screw it and go outside in the rain to play. 🙂 Everyone should play in the rain more, don’t you think? So we played. And we danced. And we jumped in puddles. And it turned out these lifestyle pictures were more real and fun than what I had intended anyway.

Meet beautiful Olivia! I was so thrilled to be asked to take her First Communion portraits during my mini sessions. We had a beautiful warm morning and she was such a pleasure to photograph. I love the dresses and accessories little girls wear, right down to their adorable matching shoes! Plus Olivia was up for everything; sitting down, leaning against the fence, etc. all while wearing her dress. Made it fun for me!

Did I mention how beautiful she is?
