I have a special place in heart for this maternity session. It feels like yesterday that I was photographing their wedding, but now they have been married for TWO years and they just had the most precious little newborn boy. These two chose not to find out if their baby was a boy or a […]

Courtney is the momma of five sweet boys, and Camden is her youngest little one. We met at Kauffman’s Orchard in Ronks, PA during peak bloom in the apple trees for an orchard newborn session (though he was probably 5 months by that time). I am not sure that anything more lovely exists! Rows upon […]

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).
