Savannah & Shelby! | Harrisburg, Pa Children's Photographer

Over Easter weekend I met up with Shelby, his little sister, and their awesome mom!  These kids are some of the most well behaved little ones I have EVER encountered!  I love them!  :)  Shelby was such a big helper as Savannah's big brother and Savannah was such a happy 20 month old little angel!  We even got to see a train while we were hanging out together- trains happen to be Shelby's favorite!  :)  I hope you enjoy these!

Baby J! | Harrisburg, Pa Infant Photographer

Over Easter weekend I was able to meet up with sweet, handsome little baby J for a session.  He and his mom and just too sweet, and I was smiling from ear to ear at all the love flowing in this session!  He was such a good little boy- I can't even say enough good things about him!!!  His session was full of Easter eggs (mostly in his mouth), rocks (again, in the mouth- not a good thing!), dirt (every boy needs a little dirt, right???), and last, but certainly NOT least- a little lovey snuggles from Momma!!  I hope you enjoy these pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them!!

Engagement Session: Lindsey & Dan | Harrisburg, Pa Wedding Photographer

I am so excited to be shooting Lindsey and Dan's wedding in October!  We recently met up for an engagement photo shoot at Italian Lake in Harrisburg.  They were so much fun and it was a treat to have such an adventurous couple that was willing to try any of my ideas!! :)

I met this couple through Lindsey's brother (check out his awesome session with his son, whom he just happens to share a birthday with HERE).  From the wedding consultation, I knew that this was a great couple to photograph and this session helped to confirm my thoughts!  They were great- I had them doing all kinds of crazy things (like scaling a hill of awesome sculpted bushes!) and they did it with smiles on their faces- (even better, right?!)  :)

I love this early morning sun flare!  The flare + the smokin' hot smooch= romantic morning bliss.

We spent a couple hours hanging out at the gardens, chatting about their wedding plans (I can vouch that this is going to be an AWESOME wedding to photograph!!) and catching some secret kisses (hello, who am I kidding? They were steaming up my lens! ;) ).  Be sure to go to our Facebook Page (HERE) and "like" us, so that you can get updates as well as see additional sneak peeks (such as the aforementioned steamy kiss!!).

Great job on the ring Dan!!!  :)


They also did a great job showing their love of pro Football (Dan and the Raiders, Lindsey and the Eagles)...Lindsey even even debuted a new Eagles Retro jersey that she swore was going to cause her sister-in-law (check out this beautiful momma HERE) to be extremely jealous!  ;)



We wrapped up their engagement session at Dixon University in Uptown Harrisburg.  It has SUCH a beautiful campus!  I loved the wide open expanse their lawn gives, and this couple soaked it all up, having a great time together in these next shots!

There's nothing like running into the arms of your one true love.
I love how Dan is sneakin' a lil peek at Lindsey!  :)


I hope you enjoy these pictures from their session!  This is one fabulously fun couple and I cannot WAIT to document their wedding and the beginning of their journey together united as one in October!! :)

Katie's 7 months! | Harrisburg, Pa Baby Portraits

Over the Easter weekend, I met up with Katie and her mom at Steele Creek Park for some fun in the sun!  Katie was a little shy at first, but when she warmed up, her true Tennessee Spirit came out!  :)  She is absolutely adorable, her red hair and blue eyes are such a vivid, intense contrast and she was just so much fun to photograph!  Enjoy!
