First up in the catch-up game, here’s a lovely family portrait session I had the privilege of photographing in Philadelphia last fall. Both siblings were moving away, so the family decided it would be a perfect time to have some family portraits made. Any excuse for family portraits is a good excuse, if you ask me. Not that you did, but I thought I’d throw that out there.
We had a lot of fun walking around Old City, it’s one of my favorite places to shoot in Philly. Enjoy the photos!

This session was one of my favorite family sessions this year. I first photographed this sweet little girl when she was still in her mommy’s belly and then again when she was first born. Hard to believe that she is already a year old! The interaction between Kristina and her daughter, Hailey, is so sweet, you might need to see the dentist after viewing this. (hardy har har!) I’ll start off with my absolute favorite photo from the session…

Rachel & Adam welcomed baby Ryleigh into the world in August and were surrounded by friends and family when I arrived at the hospital to photograph their growing family. A lot of conversation was made on the topic of who she looked more like…mom or dad? Dad’s baby photo appeared from Grandma’s wallet for comparison and it was decided that she had her daddy’s hair but her sweet little nose looked more like her momma’s. It was a beautiful day and such a pleasure to document the hospital room happenings on beautiful baby Ryleigh’s first day of life.

While weddings are the bulk of what I see in front of my lens, I also love doing portrait sessions. I recently had the pleasure of such a session with an amazing family. The W family is one of the most loving and nurturing families I have ever met. While I’ve photographed this family before, I was excited to finally get to capture them with their newest addition, Baby Aurora. Aurora and her big brother, Maverick, had a blast playing in the Enchanted Woods at Winterthur and with beautiful weather, it made for picture perfect portraits.
Take a look…
