I’ve been taking pictures of this little pumpkin since she was brand-new!

At the end of the session – Rachel – said – OH! I hope you got some good ones!

TERRIFIC ONES!! Thank you again!!

My bestest friend Missy is friends with Jennifer and suggested she call me to get some family photos! Because that’s what best friends do!

ADORABLE!

I LOVE THOSE SHOTS!

Jennifer – thank you SO MUCH for brining your family out! I hope to see you again soon!

Sara and her family have been in front of my camera for the past few years – and now their little guy is good friends with Fitzy – they are in the same class at school!

I love that one!

Sara & Todd – thank you so much for asking me to capture your family each year!

Jessica – thanks for bringing your kiddos out in the FREEZING COLD! They did AMAZING!

Melissa and I had a hard time finding a night that worked for both of us – and when we did get together – the light was fading – but it actually worked out to be BEAUTIFUL!

ADORABLE!

I LOVE THOSE SHOTS!

Melissa – thank you SO much for traveling here for your session! It worked out PERFECTLY!

Hope to see you again soon!

Lauren referred Carie to me last year – and I was so happy that they loved their first session with me and scheduled another for the fall!

Isn’t she a DOLL BABY!

Seriously – ADORABLE!

It’s official – fall is my ABSOLUTE favorite!

Carie – thank you SO MUCH for asking me to come capture your little family! I can’t wait to see you again!

Sadie and her family feed us on a far-too-regular basis – because we LOVE pizza!

They own Papa V’s – and we love them for that! Among other things!

And it seems that we’ve hit COLD weather the last few times we’ve scheduled!

I LOVE THOSE SHOTS!

Little *A* was having a moment – but – that’s real life – so you take the picture anyway!

And then I looked out the window and realized that THIS would be a GREAT shot!

And while we already did Ashley’s senior session at the end of the summer – she ended up using this photo for her yearbook!

And that shot explains life in northern Pennsylvania PERFECTLY! Fall one day – winter the next!

SISTERS!

You cannot take yourself too seriously! HAVE FUN! LIVE OUT LOUD!

Thanks again James & Sadie – I love our yearly sessions! But next time – let’s schedule a little earlier in the season!

I’ve been taking pictures of these girls – since *E* was 6 months old!

They were some of my earliest subjects when I decided to become a full-time photographer!

We always have to get that serious shot!

Even their new puppy is a girl! Their dad is completely SURROUNDED!

And we always need a shot of the twins!

I will never forget when Amy told us she was having twins!

I worked next to her almost all day – and when she found out she was pregnant with them – she was SO sick! And I said – well – maybe it’s twins!!

If looks could kill! Well – it came time for an ultrasound – and sure enough – not one baby! TWO!

She slammed the photo down on the counter and said LOOK AT THAT! We were all shocked!

Amy – thank you for asking me to capture them as the years go by – it’s such a joy to watch them grow into beautiful young women – as painful as it might be in affirming MY age!

Little *A* was such a sleepy newborn! And if you’ve followed me for any length of time – you will know that I can’t get my own babies to sleep – so getting a baby that isn’t my own to sleep for me – impossible!

Well – she did end up sleeping – eventually!

Aren’t those PRECIOUS!

Some of my FAVORITE newborn shots!!

Posed newborn shots are NOT my specialty – so these shots were a pleasant surprise!

Jenna – thank you SO MUCH for asking me to capture your little sweetheart! I can’t wait to see you guys again!

Ericka is one of my dearest friends! We’ve been praying for a baby in her arms for several years!

And like most things in life – they come in their own time – when you least expect it!

It’s a GIRL!

Another sweet girl!

Ericka – you are strong. You are beautiful. You are loved. I cannot WAIT to see this baby’s face! I LOVE YOU!
