Hall Family Preview (Chester County Family Photographer)

It has been awhile since I have done a session at Springton Manor Farm, but last weekend I returned to photograph the Hall Family. They booked the session back in September of last year, so it was certainly long awaited.
It was a steamy day with thunderstorms on the horizon, but we stuck to the shade where there was a little breeze, the girls visited with the barn cat, the kids sat on the tractor and everyone generally enjoyed being together before the storm truly threatened.

Hall and extended Family...enjoy your sneak preview!

Shackelford Preview (Chester County Newborn Photographer)

I recently had the pleasure of photographing some children that are dear to my mother-in-law, but are not her grandchildren. You see, she is a nanny for a family with 3 beautiful girls, one of which was just 3 weeks old when I arrived for the session. I was immediately envious of her full head of dark hair because though I was born with hair like that, so far my children have not been given that gift. What a stunning little bundle!
There were moments of sisterly love and moments of independence, but all in all it was a wonderful session and it was great to get to meet the Shackelfords (well, most of them.)

Shackelford Family...enjoy your sneak preview and those precious little girls!

"F" Family Preview (Chester County Family Photographer)

First, let me thank the "F" family for their patience in waiting for this preview. I have been eager to get this up, but good intentions did not prevail over a very busy week and weekend.

I was so excited to get to do this session. My son is friends with their son, and they are a lovely family in so many ways. I was grateful to get the session in last weekend and glad they were flexible enough to move the session up when all of the sudden we were under a tornado warning! They live on a beautiful property that has many options for lush, vibrant backdrops, but the stars of these pictures are the faces.

"F" family...enjoy your preview!

Carroll Preview (Chester County Family Photographer)

On Sunday morning, though rain was threatening, I managed to squeeze in a wonderful session with a fantastic family. There were a few drops here and there, but nothing that kept us from having fun while I captured the joy and love they have for each other.
There is such innocent beauty in capturing a child looking lovingly at a parent or just relaxing in their presence. Those are treasures for sure!

Carroll Family...enjoy your sneak preview!

Stendardo Family Preview (Philadelphia Area Family Photographer)

I don't often do sessions in the city, but last Saturday I met the Stendardo Family at Fairmount Park for a beautiful morning session. Unfortunately, the area we had planned to use, around the Horticultural Center, was blocked off for a race of some sort. I'm not sure why that event didn't show up when I searched for events in the area, but luckily we were able to find a nice place close by.
It was a hot one, but a little shade here and there, and a nice breeze helped dramatically. All in all it was a great morning with a great family!
As you preview the session, make sure to catch the last picture of one of the cutest pouty faces I have seen in awhile.

Stendardo family...enjoy your sneak preview!
