Beautiful Amelia! – {Philadelphia newborn photographer}

Erin and Peter welcomed Amelia into the world just 13 days before our photo shoot.  I met them at their home in Philadelphia.  Meet beautiful Amelia!

Erin explained that what she was looking for in the session was some simple and artistic photos of Amelia.  I just love it when my clients are able to tell me exactly what they like.  It is such a huge help.  Although I love to shoot in the family’s surroundings too, my black background is perfect for artistic shots.

I often change images to reflect a different mood using effects like black & white, sepia or vintage.   However, I always give my clients the original as well so they can decide which one they like the best.

So at this point you’re probably thinking that little Amelia slept through the entire photo session right?  Ummmmm….no.  She was keeping at least one eye on me most of the time, which was all very normal.  But I’m glad it looks that way!!!!   The key to newborn photography is patience.  My sessions can take between 2-3 hours because of feedings, changing and very determined and awake little girls!

I'm kind of tired, but I better keep my eye on this lady for a little longer!

Kelly Fox - Aw, I love the little nose rubbing with Daddy.

Erin L. - Amelia did recover and slept most of the afternoon and did really well at night. Thanks again for coming to the house and being so patient. We are IN LOVE with the photos. Now we have the really hard part of picking the ones we like the most! Thanks again!

Denise - The smiles are amazing on this little girl. You captured some really sweet moments.

admin - Thanks so much. It’s the best job ever!

My New Maternity Sample Album has arrived!

I just love it when packages arrive on my doorstep!!!!

I ordered this sample from WHCC.  Their lay-flat album is perfect for my maternity and newborn session clients.  It’s not too expensive and the quality is excellent!

For the sample, I chose a mineral fabric cover. Custom designed photo covers are also available.

Here is what I love about this album, the pages lay flat next to each other which makes it so much easier to view the album.

The thickness of the pages is amazing!

The printing is excellent quality as well.

The Finger Lakes are photo heaven! Part I

Last week, hubby and I took our 2nd annual trip to the Finger Lakes with a bunch of friends.  We first found out about the area in July 2006 when we went for a weekend and just happened to get engaged!  I love how it’s not crowded and beautiful everywhere you turn.  There’s tons of stuff to do….amazing restaurants, wineries, waterfalls, kayaking, fishing…and just hanging out with friends by the fire.

I was really tempted to pull the car over about every 30 seconds while we were on our winery treks to photograph something amazing.  I don’t think my friends would have appreciated that so I mostly shot pics in and around the wineries.  This was not a sacrifice at all…..the views and gardens at the wineries were spectacular!

This vintage truck was in the yard next to one of the wineries.  I couldn’t resist!

I had to make it even a little more vintage!

This was just a small garden area on the side of a winery. The scene reminded me of a still-life painting.
