Mahoney Girls (Philadelphia Area Children's Photographer)

One of the many blessings of this job is getting to reunite with friends that I haven't seen since college or even high school and take pictures of their kids. Last weekend I got to do just that.

I hadn't seen my friend Karen in at least ten years. (We couldn't manage to put our heads together and come up with an exact amount of time.) And, because her beautiful daughters are younger than that, I was meeting them for the first time which was so much fun. Karen and I were friends and sorority sisters in college. It was so much fun catching up (at least partially) on life during the last ten or so years.

Karen was just sure that the session with her girls would be rained out, but amazingly, out of the three sessions I did in DC that day, the weather for this one was the best. The girls were excited to explore and be photographed. It was a great time!

Enjoy your preview my friend!

Greeves Family (Philadelphia Area Family Photographer)

I can't even begin to tell you how much fun it is when I get to photograph kids and families as they grow!

The first time I met little Miss "A" she was about 5 months old. The second time she was almost 1 and was getting close to walking. And this time she was almost 2, and was so adorably polite and talkative. I can hardly wait until the fall when I will have the pleasure of photographing her as a big sister!

It was misting through most of our session, but that didn't keep us from having a great time. At one point the mist got a little heavy and Miss "A" asked to wear her hat. Thank goodness because the cuteness is almost overwhelming!

Greeves Family...thank you for braving the weather for another fantastic session. Can't wait to meet the new addition! Enjoy your preview!

Lindeblad Family (Philadelphia Area Family Photographer)

Last weekend I spent my Saturday in the DC area. I love going down there to do sessions. I get to work with some wonderful families and this is one.

I have never been rained out on any of my trips to DC, but I thought this might be the first time. There was a 60% chance of rain, and on my way to our selected location it was pouring. Thankfully I checked the radar on my phone and knew it was just a passing shower. Though it began to mist at the end of our session, we got the whole thing in and actually it was perfect photography lighting.

It was so great to work with this family again! The girls are full of energy and enjoyed exploring the area and all of its beauty.

Lindeblad Family...thanks for a wonderful morning...enjoy your preview!

Lloyd Family (Chester County Family Photographer)

I recently had the pleasure of meeting the Lloyd Family. We had no idea the adventure we would embark on when we scheduled the session.

You see, our first choice of location, Springton Manor Farm, was shearing sheep the day of our session and we weren't allowed on the property at the time we planned to take pictures. So, I took the opportunity to try out a new spot that I had been eyeing for awhile and boy am I glad it worked out. The Lloyds were great and were up for the impromptu change of plans.

What a fun and gorgeous family. We truly enjoyed the beautiful morning that God provided and managed to capture the excitement of bubbles, the fun of peek-a-boo, the joy of picking flowers and the love of a wonderful family.

The girls even found a piece of bark that looked like a camera and took a few "pictures" of me!

Lloyd family...enjoy your preview!
