With the motherhood event coming up so soon in April, I thought it was a good time to share some recent photographs I took of this momma with her littles. I wanted to photograph a bonnet that I handmade for the client closet, so I asked Faith to meet me at the studio that morning […]

You may remember this adorable newborn and lifestyle family photography session from last year of the family behind the The Archer Foundation for Hydrocephalus. Well, it was the surprise of a lifetime to hear from Jillian (Abby’s mom) was that they had won a contest and that my photograph would be on display in NYC […]

A newborn session at the studio has become a favorite to shoot. This is because we can replicate a ‘home’ feeling as you snuggle your newborn without the stress of cleaning right after your life has gotten busier (& more sleep-deprived). The studio has lovely light flowing in from a large window, which allows for […]

This little guy, Jax, is the perfect addition to this already perfect family! Congratulations, Griffith family! He is such a calm, sweet little guy. You all are so blessed with your boys! It was so sweet how your older son took to his new little brother. Isn’t it wonderful to see the beginning of a […]

THIS GIRL. Oh, my. This baby girl, Elizabeth, turned one and was nothing but smiles about it! I loved her adorable curly locks and joyful personality during her first birthday session! Just look at her sweet smile! Happy birthday, Elizabeth!! I love photographing her clap her hands, crawl around and do all the cute things […]

It’s such a joy to be a newborn photographer and meet all of these little ones during their first moments. Braeden may have dark hair, especially in stark contrast to his big sister and her very light blonde hair, but his parents say that she looked the same at that age! From dark brown hair […]

Courtney and Joey have done a little traveling and so it was fitting that we had a Hawk Mountain engagement session, where we had some STUNNING views (even with all of the Canadian smoke floating back into the area). Courtney wore a dress she bought in Spain and the two looked just perfect! I always […]

To say that I had fun styling and photographing Sienna’s floral newborn session would be an understatement! I love my job as a newborn photographer and styling flowers always is a fun addition (YOU could book one, too!). It was a pleasure to work with Lesley and Brian to make their vision come to life […]

Each year since the opening of my motherhood studio in Lancaster, PA (lovingly called Studio Illume), I have hosted floral sessions each year in honor of Mother’s day. I decided this year would be a little bit different. I decided that I would take on the floral design myself (when in the past, I have […]

Katrina and Chip just happened to schedule their session for the day after my Motherhood Event, so we took full advantage of all of the flowers and the backdrop I put together. Let’s be real, though. It was these two that made the session pure magic. I am so thrilled to be photographing their wedding […]
