It’s Time. | Why I Open My Fall Calendar in July

Every year, around Christmas in July, I do the same thing. I start planning, order the holiday backdrop, call my friends with the holiday truck, and open my fall calendar. It always feels a little funny because we're still in the middle of summer. The pool is still open, the beach bag is by the [...]

Spring Family Portraits at Core Creek Park | Bucks County Family Photographer

There are some families that feel less like clients and more like old friends you happen to meet up with a few times a year while carrying a camera.  The Glassman family is one of those families for me.  I’ve been photographing them since their kiddos were newborns, which honestly feels impossible because now they’re five and [...]

Holiday 2025: The Big Sneezes, the In-Between, and the Magic That Lasts

Holiday portraits are never really about the outfits. They’re about the moments between them. Holiday 2025 brought me 24 in-studio holiday portrait sessions, 10 events, and a handful of other meaningful sessions, totaling 72 sessions across Bucks County. And while each one looked a little different, they all shared the same heartbeat: families showing up, even [...]

There’s something truly special about watching a family grow—not just in size, but in love, milestones, and beautiful traditions. I’ve had the absolute joy of photographing this sweet Bucks County family since their oldest son’s very first birthday, and every session with them feels like catching up with old friends. This time, we came together [...]

Summer is My Thing! ✨

Spring was a fling, but summer? Summer is my thing!
