Taylor and Peter are expecting a little baby boy so soon! I loved the dress that Taylor chose from the Studio Illume client closet for their maternity session. We started their session in their yard at their new home (pups included!) and then *fun fact* we found the second location on the way to another […]

As promised, part two of some very floral sessions! Raphaela is adored by her whole family, especially her big brother! He loves and takes of his baby sister so well. This lovely family came to the studio after the newborn session with little Brynna. I wanted to show clients that we can make their milestone […]

This is by no means an exhaustive list of the beautiful locations available in the south-central and south-eastern portion of Pennsylvania, BUT these are some of my favorites. It’s always a good day when we choose one of the following for your session! Read on below to see some of the best locations for photographing […]

Melinda thought she would always be a boy mom (which is an amazing blessing!), but then this little lady came along and surprised them all! We celebrated her arrival with a very floral newborn session, just momma and baby. Brynna was a few months old by the time this session took place and was all […]

The Earhart family and I first met many years ago when I photographed Jessica and Ben’s wedding! They had a beautiful wedding day at a privately owned estate and these two basically looked like they were straight out of a fairytale. Fast forward to this year, they got in touch about photographing the arrival of […]

And just like that.. little Aaron was born! This little man made his arrival just weeks after Louise and Zach’s maternity session (which you can see posted here). He is just as perfect as we all had imagined and is adored by everyone around him! He spent nearly all of his newborn session being the […]

I have a special place in heart for this Lancaster maternity session featured below. 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 […]

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 Lancaster engagement session feels like it was a long time in the making! If you have followed my photography for a while, you might recognize this beautiful couple. Allisa and I first met during an extended family session, but then after we another session more focused on her, her daughter, and her boyfriend (Dylan). […]

This is Emma’s second studio maternity session at Studio Illume, and yet again she looks absolutely lovely! I first met this sweet family while she was pregnant with her first son, Aiden. This time around Aiden is SO big and a big brother! It is so cute to see him running around as a toddler. […]
