This trip had been a trip in the making for YEARS. Seriously. Since 2020, we’ve been dreaming of traversing the rugged and beautiful landscape of Iceland. We planned this trip three times – once in 2020, then again for 2023, and then again for 2024 – the third time was the charm, and we finally […]

So somehow Blake found me on instagram by searching #harrisburgphotographer. Praise the Lamb for hashtags my friends. Blake and his wife Sarah were the absolute sweetest!

Okay. So the world jumped when Canon announced the newest camera to their mirrorless line – the Canon R6. The initial R was a flurry of excitement, and the R5 shook the camera world. However, being much more expensive than the normal consumer could afford, I think everyone got excited when the newest R6 was […]

I’ve known Maddie for several years now. We met when we both worked as preschool teachers in mechanicsburg, and worked together there. Her son Micah was a curly haired cutie that has grown up into the cutest big brother! I am so excited for this sweet family as they welcome their newest member next spring! […]

However, there are a lot of great camera bags you can use when traveling. Having a great bag is one way to […]
