Odin's At Home Newborn Mini Session

During Thanksgiving I had a chance to meet the very charming baby Odin. Our mini session included some great natural light, a couple nautical details, and a hat that was very fitting for his name. To see a few of my favorites from that day, keep on scrolling. Disclaimer: you may need to mentally prepare yourself for how cute his smile is. Congrats on your brand-spankin-new arrival, you guys!

Marilyn's Voice Adoptable Pets Shoot

So, the following post is a little out of the norm for what is usually posted on here. While it isn't EXACTLY someone's big happy day, it could definitely lead to a big happy day for a furry little someone (and maybe you too!).

We recently partnered up with Marilyn's Voice to photograph some of their adorable little rescues that are currently up for adoption. Each photo below is a sample from a shoot of a different dog (and one cat) that is looking for a loving home. Keep scrolling; maybe you'll fall in love:

Lastly, here is the spokespup for Marilyn's Voice/queen of the castle, Betty, working the camera:

Owen's At Home Newborn Shoot

This past weekend we made the trek back to one of our old stomping grounds in New Jersey to photograph the newly-arrived baby Owen. Since we were able to shoot at his family's home, it was a great way to make things truly personal to them. Along with the location, we also were able to incorporate heirlooms as well as some of the parent's interests like books and music; there is even a nod to their wedding song in the photos. Keep scrolling for a peek into their session (as well as a peek at little Owen's adorable face).

Congratulations, Drew and Alyssa, on your new addition to the family!

Carissa + Tyler Wedding

Recently, on a sunny June day, I got to watch two of my friends/fellow art kids tie the knot... I also got to document it! Carissa and Tyler are a pair of fun, unique, and creative people and their day was a reflection of just that. From the handmade flowers to their awesome confetti guns during the ceremony, their wedding day truly captured their spirit. Below you will find a tiny peek into their summer celebration.

Carissa + Tyler Engagement

Here comes the last shoot of the fall season, complete with some lovely autumn colors! This session is a little special because it took place at three separate locations: his hometown (Durham), her hometown (Bethlehem), and where the couple met (Kutztown). It is also a little special because I got the opportunity to photograph some former classmates and friends/all around cool kids. Keep on scrolling for a little preview of their fun engagement shoot:

and, of course, it would be foolish not to include the most melodramatic engagement photo I've ever taken...

Happy planning, you guys; we're looking forward to your wedding!

Allison + Jason Wedding

I have to start off by congratulating Allison and Jason on their new lives together... in more ways than one. Not only did these lucky kids recently have a beautiful autumn wedding, but they also just embarked on their relocation journey to San Francisco; what a sweet deal! Of course, it is always a pleasure to photograph a bunch of friendly folks who are constantly on the dance floor (seriously, super friendly; I think I made like 20 new friends that day). Continue scrolling for a little peek into their wonderful day, complete with some cute handmade details:

Best of wishes to you two in everything you do!
