Katie… Mechanicsburg Highschool Senior Model

Katie is my Mechanicsburg highschool Senior Model. She is so fun, and easy to photograph… Looking forward to seeing her again this summer for her full session. Just a reminder to any one out there looking to book a senior session this summer. Spots are booking up fast so if you have a preferred week it is best to book your session now!

Here are some of my favorites…

Baby makes 3… Central Pennsylvania Newborn Photographer

Oh… this session makes me smile… i just love way to many images. So here is an overdose of newborn sweetness…

Dominique: Millersburg Highschool Senior Photographer

Dominique is one of my senior model’s this year. We had a beautiful weekend for her session. I am so happy spring is here and we can start going outside!  Here are some of my favorites from her session!

I was trying out something new… like it?

Mechanicsburg Newborn Photographer: Peace Baby

Here are some of my favorite portraits from a newborn photography session.

She was about  a month old when these were taken, but that was due to her coming so early, She was born around new years! What a sweet baby girl!

Mechanicsburg Family Photographer… Brother and Sister…

These adorable kids belong to a friend of mine who happens to be my high school french teacher… We didn’t get together to do Christmas Card pictures so this year she sent out valentine cards!! I just love off season cards!

Real Life… Mechanicsburg Family Phtographer

Sometimes I joke with clients that nobody’s children are as hard to photograph as my own… they do a nice job when I am taking the picture, that is only after years of training… :) but if you add me to the picture, forget about it!! I thought I would share some recent pictures taken with me trying to look cute with my girls… feel free to laugh and enjoy my pain… I always say that I just need one good picture… for most these would be out-takes but really this is what its really like with my 2 girls…

Jourdan… Trinity Highschool Senior Model…

Jourdan is one of my senior models this year for Elaine Gates Photography. I was so thrilled when she signed up, she is so adorable… and fun to be around! Here are some of my favorites from her session!
