Tall and Handsome Derek

My older son, Derek, just turned fifteen.  It is crazy to think of how much he has grown up just in this past year, but when I think back to the adorable baby he was, it is even crazier how quickly the time has passed. We had the best time going out and taking his portraits, taking advantage of some fifty degree weather in December, and I love how they capture my boy.

Beautiful Lori

I recently had the chance to take some headshots for a realtor that I work with, and it was so fun! Although I spend most of my time lately doing real estate shoots, I do still adore taking portraits.  And she looked lovely.

Beautiful Pennsylvania in the Spring

It had been way too long since I had the time to go out and take some nature pictures.  While I was out taking my daughter's portraits, it was the perfect chance for me to get some shots.  I love taking pictures of wildflowers, and even old bridges and buildings, but I was especially excited to get some pictures of a Baltimore Oriole.  They are so beautiful, and I caught it holding still and on the wing.  It made my week :).

Sweet and Sassy at Seventeen

My daughter Lily turned seventeen, which I still can't quite wrap my head around.  She is going to be a senior, and so although these aren't technically her Senior Portraits,  they are her birthday portraits right before her senior year.  She has truly grown into a beautiful and amazing young lady.

Sweet Seven Year Old

My baby boy turned seven, and so we snuck out a rare 50 degree January day and I took his portraits. He is such a funny guy, and throughout the shoot, he would suggest different poses, and even tell me how many of each shot I should take.  He was hilarious.  I love taking portraits of my kids.

And just for fun, here is one of the "outtakes," or silly poses he had me take.

A Lovely Summer Morning for Family Portraits

I had the most wonderful morning the other day, when I got to take portraits of the Loar family.  Not only are their children adorable, but they were so much fun.  And we couldn't have asked for more perfect skies and lighting.  I just love how the pictures turned out!
