Family Portraits in New York - One of my favorite couples!

One of my favorite couples of all time is my cousin and her husband. They are so much fun and we just love getting the chance to hang out with them. During our trip up to NYC, we spent time with them and I was able to shoot a few portraits in the process...







This last shot is of Justin and Elias after walking the High Line. It was a fun day with amazing weather for a walk through NYC.

Have a great holiday weekend everyone!

Photography Workshop Update

I can't believe it's June already! Time is flying by this summer and it's no surprise as every weekend has been filled with photo sessions, plans, and impromptu get togethers.

I recently had a session with the cutest little newborn! She was so sweet and I've known her mom for a long time. The parents are so happy with the birth of their daughter and I can't blame them since she is adorable!  I've sent them their photos for review so a sneak peek is pending soon here for all of you!

The photography workshop I attended this past weekend was amazing. Not only was it great to get out of state for the weekend but I met a lot of amazing women!  The photography workshop was incredible from learning more about photography to sharing experiences with other people who have similar interests. We also had photo shoots with families as models which gave us all an opportunity to work on technique. 

Here are some of my shots from this weekend...

The first family had a sweet little girl who loved her stuffed bunny rabbit.







The next family was a family of four. The girls had a lot of fun with mom and dad, plus we all got to see a family of geese walking through the park!










This next little girl was actually with a different family and another group of photographers had been assigned to shoot their portraits. Towards the end of all of the sessions I saw her sitting by some of the purses and took a few additional portraits.



And finally, without hesitation, I even have a photo of these little guys...



The workshop was a defining experience. I met talented photographers who are so friendly and welcoming.  The weekend proved to be an incredible experience over all and I'm happy to share my shots on the blog with you, enjoy!

Lehigh Valley Spring Portraits - The "G" Family!

One of my portrait families contacted me this spring to take photographs of their beautiful little girl! She had this adorable spring dress but was a little apprehensive to sit with the Easter Bunny. Fortunately I was able to come to the rescue and shoot her spring portraits!

Here is a sneak peek from that session...

Enjoy your photographs "G" family!

Sketchy Sunday

We celebrated my father's birthday recently and I wasn't sure what I wanted to get him. It was a milestone birthday and I wanted my gift to be special, meaningful, and unique.  The idea to draw a family portrait came to me one day and I asked my mom if she could send me some photographs.

I was unable to give my dad a photography session of him and his parents. His father has been gone for many years. But I was able to combine three different photographs of him, his mother, and his father into one hand drawn portrait. In the end he loved the gift!  Here is a scan of the drawing...
