Ready for spring? It is coming! At the studio we're going to celebrate the coming of spring with a special Limited Edition Session on Saturday, March 11. We will have the most adorable live bunnies (and maybe some 2 month old baby bunnies, too)! This session comes with an 8 x 10 metal image with an easel back - a special product only offered with these sessions. No frame is needed. This image of your child interacting with a bunny will make you feel like spring, even when the weather isn't cooperating. Just image in the expressions your…

I am so happy that my portrait of Karl won a Blue Ribbon! I entered it in the competition held by the Guild of Professional Photographers of the Delaware Valley. The competition was held on Sunday at Dennis Kelly Photography. There were so many great images by talented  photographers in the area.

I enjoyed working with people more than…

This year, for the first time, I had a day in the fall where I offered short mini-sessions with a Christmas theme. I decorated a tree and had an antique sled and "snow". I also offered a few specialty products just for this mini-session. I loved meeting new families and children I had never photographed before! Here are a few images from the sessions. Even though it was early (1st weekend in Nov.), the kids were excited to think about Christmas and especially excited to sit in the sled in the "snow". Even though the sessions were short, we were…
