When I was looking for someone to bring a vision of a country cowboy session to life, Kara jumped at the chance. I was so excited to get these two in front of my camera! They are the most laid-back, joyful people, and it was so fun hanging with them to photograph these sweet photos. […]

Tania and Fred emailed me a few weeks ago in hopes of getting a maternity session in before they welcomed their little girl into the world! When I asked Tania what she wanted for her session she said “Grass and fields”. I think we were able to deliver on that at the beautiful park where […]

I love photographing seniors, and Libby was no exception. She has the sweetest and kindest heart, and is following in her mom’s footsteps to become a nurse. The best thing about Libby was that she just glowed talking about how excited she was to start her career and to start making a change in the […]

This engagement session was a special one. Leah and Jordan are tying the knot this summer at Camp YoliJwa, a place near and dear to my heart. We spent this cloudy afternoon getting to know each other and how they met – through mutual friends – while wandering around Caledonia State Park. It was a […]

Studios are such a fun way to mix up sessions, and this session was no different. Shooting in a studio forces me to get creative because I’m not relying on scenery and lighting to help tell the story. I’m solely focusing on the couple that I’m photographing. This offers a nice way of keeping the […]

MEET Holly & Grant

Colin has been one of my best friends for a long time. When he and his girlfriend Mary happened to be down in Charleston at the same time I was, I couldn’t resist getting them in front of the camera. We walked around downtown together and had so much fun! I love photographing my favorite […]

Elizabeth and David picked the classiest outfits for their engagement session! I absolutely loved every detail of their session. From Elizabeth’s satin dress to her pearl stud earrings, it was adorable! They waltzed around the Harrisburg Capital with me and were down for anything. Their black and white picture in the arch just might be […]

Who says you can’t get good engagement photos in the rain? Because you totally can! It was POURING Sunday when we captured Erika + Caleb’s engagement photos! But with a clear umbrella and an indoor conservancy, we got some of my favorite photos to date. I’ve photographed Caleb + Erika a few times this year, […]

Kayla + Kyle chose The Goldfish Barn for their engagement session because that’s where they’ll be getting married in May of 2024! Our evening was absolutely perfect. When Kyle met Kayla at Dairy Queen, he joked that all he wanted was ice cream when he went. But he left with meeting his future fiance! How […]

This might be a little controversial, but I’m here to say it. For a regular wedding day, you do not need more than 6-8 hours of wedding coverage. Why? Because it’s a waste of time and money. I say this lightly to all couples out there planning their wedding days. Unless their photographer does all-day […]
