Kisses, Smooches, Pucker Up!

My wedding anniversary is on February 14th, yup, Valentine's Day. My husband and I celebrated with a hibachi lunch and a date at the movies. I'll admit, I love a good love story, or even the love shared within families. And when I photograph families, some of my favorite shots are the few that I sneak in of mom and dad, parents and children, or the couple that is about to have a baby---all sneaking a smooch when they think I'm not shooting. Here is just a sampling of some of my favorite shots...

I was inspired to post this after seeing that PopPhoto ran a Valentine's Day Kiss Contest, some of the photos sent in by viewers were beautiful! It's always amazing to see the love and affection we share for the special people and pets in our lives!

Spring is on its way!

To celebrate some of this warmer weather I've decided to post some colorful photographs...

It seems like spring is on its way!!! 

We've had a lot of snow. A LOT. But now the weather is warming up a bit and the sun is making an appearance!  Now is the time to dust off your bike or your hiking shoes and get out to enjoy this weather. I've had a late winter cold the last few days but I can't wait until it passes and I can get outside and take some new photographs!

Some of my favorite outdoor places in the Montco/Bucks/Lehigh Valley area are:

Green Lane Park - great mountain biking trails
High Rocks Ralph Stover - awesome vista
Hawk Mountain - fantastic hiking
Jacobsburg State Park - hiking, biking trails
Promised Land State Park - camping and hiking
Hickory Run State Park - hiking, and boulder field
Rickett's Glen State Park - beautiful waterfalls, great hiking

Enjoy!

Photo of the Week

PHOTO OF THE WEEK

You may remember this pretty girl from a session I had done around the holidays. This couple has the most adorable little boy, and their dog was such a sweetheart during the photoshoot. Check out their session!

I know it's hard to believe with all of this snow, but spring is around the corner! If you are looking for family portrait sessions or a gift for someone you care about, now is a great time to book your session. Contact me to reserve your date!

Updated Gallery!

The new year is off to a great start! I've had some beautiful portrait sessions, started teaching an intro to photography class at a local craft store, and I've been participating in an annual creative sprint with other artists on Thing-a-Day.

But my latest effort is actually the subject of my post today, and that is the new and improved gallery!  I separated the gallery into different sections focusing on specific types of portraits. I have also updated them with some of my latest work.

I invite you to get comfy and start browsing my portfolio!
