Sophie has one of the warmest hearts I’ve witnessed. It made for such a wonderful session, and I loved the photos that came out of it! We visited the studio for a portion of the shoot, and I loved playing around with the color palette of the room. The outfits that Sophie picked out were perfect, and it worked out best for a gradient backdrop. Her skin tone fit best with a light-to-dark backgroun[...]

When you start high school, you are definitely a different person than when graduation rolls around. You’ve learned more, grown a lot, and hopefully, become a little closer to the person you want to be. Gillian definitely is well on her way to becoming an amazing adult, and I’m so proud to know her. She is a senior at Vandegrift High School, where she has discovered her passion for sports medi[...]

If you could put a face on fun, it’d be Elizabeth. It was such a great time in our session, and we both loved the photos that came out of it! She has this elegance about her that made for some wonderful shots, and her light-hearted spirit made for some beautiful memories. We traveled around to a host of locations, each with its own unique feel. In the pictures, you can see how each one contains[...]
As I style and design each senior session I do, I always have one moment in mind: the moment when I get to reveal the images to my client and their loved ones. It is always a highlight to see their faces light up and react to their photos. They ooohhh and aaaaaah, and smile and laugh, and that gallery reveal becomes a cherished memory that parents and seniors alike love and remember. Carrie's sess[...]
So, you may have noticed studio portraits look different than outdoor, on-location ones, and you'd be right. But not only are they a totally different look, they also require different things from me (as a photographer) and from my clients. I love the change between on-location and studio, because it does require me to sort of "switch gears" and make changes so both styles come out amazingly! I[...]
Sweet, joyful, and thoughtful. That’s Ava! Of course, when you look through her session, those are the first things that come to mind. It was such a joy to take pictures of her, and capture her unique spirit forever (or, as long as digital photos last)! The lighting was gorgeous that day, and we made a point of visiting a number of nature spots to take advantage of it. Ava has a wonderful grasp[...]
