Baby Anissa | Newborn Photographer Harrisburg, PA

Wow!  I am so excited to share this post with everyone!  I have been eagerly waiting on Anissa to come and meet our world, and I know her Mom and Dad were dying to meet her as well!  Not too long ago I met up with Tara and Jeremy to take some outdoor on-location pictures (HERE), as well as spend some time in the studio (HERE & HERE), and since then we have just been itching to meet this sweetie!

Here are some pictures from Anissa's newborn session.  She was a whopping 12 days new!  I loved snuggling with her and hanging out with her Momma.  She was so cooperative and during our "rest time" she was quite the little wiggle worm (especially for only being 12 days!!).  I had a great time hanging out with you Anissa (as well as your Momma!) and I am so excited to meet you!! I know your Mom and Dad are equally as excited to meet you- especially after a long labor (of love)- WELCOME!!!

Isabella Turns 1 | Children Photographer Harrisburg, PA

Wow.  It is hard to believe this sweet, sweet little girl has already turned one!!  She has grown so much (take a look back at all of her changes as she has grown below!!).  I am blessed to have this sweet little one at my camera lens's every request!

If you are interested in documenting your growing baby monthly, these sessions are a great way to show how much your baby has grown during the first year of life (and it makes a great 1st birthday decoration- 12 different pictures, 1 from each month!).  There is a monthly session, typically around your child's "monthly" birthday, so the pictures are as accurate as possible.  Email us at info.bellavitaphotography@gmail.com for more information on our growing baby sessions!

Enjoy!








Check out how much she has grown!

Isabella Visits the Beach | Traveling Baby Photographer Harrisburg, PA

You already read in Isabella's 10 month post that I got a little carried away with client sessions and forgot to put up these two posts! Shame on me (again), so here is the 11 month session- yay for time at the beach!!  This a couple months ago Isabella visited the beach for the first time!  She had a wonderful time on the Cape and I know she will love it more and more, the older she gets!  We rolled her 11 month session into her beach session, since they were so close to the same date.

Here are a few shots from her session on the beach.  This was a nice, secluded cove just off the main beach near Head of the Meadow- Cape Cod, MA. 

Enjoy!

Isabella & The Farm | Baby Photographer McAlisterville, PA

I think, with all the sessions going on recently, I forgot to update a couple of Isabella's sessions from earlier in the year!  Gasp, shame on me!  Well, better late than never. :) Here is Isabella's 10 month session.  Stay tuned for her beachy, fun 11 month session coming soon!

Isabella played at our family farm for her 10 month session.  She is moving around nice and strong now, so these new talents make for a fun time!

Here's a sweet little shot from her session.  Enjoy.


and a couple shots from her first Easter session!

Why I am a Photographer.

In order to be a great photographer, I believe you have to have passion, set your goals, and aim higher than the highest goal.

At the top of my list of "goals" is to devote just as much dedication, creativity and love into each session as I did in my very first session.  I believe that everyone should have unique, memorable, naturally beautiful photographs to build the fondest of memories from.

I just want to let you in on a little sneak peek from the session I am currently working on.



This picture is EXACTLY why I am a photographer and why I love what I do!

It doesn't get any more genuine than this, and I am so thankful that my clients have chosen Bella Vita Photography to capture special little moments, like this one between Madison and her Daddy.  love it.

Be Blessed.

Jamie C. Penn State Harrisburg Doctoral Candidate | Headshot Photographer Harrisburg, PA

Jamie is currently enrolled in Penn State Harrisburg's American Studies program as a doctoral student.  She is one of my colleagues and currently is on an educational sabbatical- how adventurous, academic, and absolutely loads of fun!  She will also be teaching Public Speaking courses to incoming Freshmen this fall at PSU-HBG.  She contacted me recently, asking if I would shoot some headshots for her; shots which will be pictured in the Graduate Student Publication.  How cool!?!  (does this mean that I am published now??  wink, wink!)  I, of course, said that I would be more than happy to assist her!

Here are a few pictures from her headshot session.  Enjoy.
