If you should run into Melanie and she is hungry – she loves pretzels!

This beauty came down from Tamaqua for her senior portraits. Her Mom went to school with Susan. Before the shoot we had a chat on the phone to discuss outfits, accessories and hair & makeup. We also discussed the look she was going for with her session and how she wanted to be photographed. Melanie wanted some outdoor nature looks and an edgy look. We started at the Creamery studio for the images on the palettes as well as the images in the grass. I love what we can create without having to leave the studio. BUT…then we went out on location for some of her edgier images. I love the look of the lace and sequin dress against the dilapidated building and how she just kicked back on the steps. We had a really good time getting to know each other and laughing. Melanie is one of the happiest girl’s I’ve ever met!

P.S. If you should run into Melanie and she is hungry – she loves pretzels!

Magic Monday

Here's hoping your 4th of July was as magical as ours. Happy Monday!

Matt's Senior Photo Shoot

"Matt, have a seat on the ledge, sit back and put your feet up on the palettes and nail this shot!" Matt does just that! This was my favorite image from this senior photo shoot.

Josie's Communion

Here are just a few of Miss Josie during her communion photo shoot. At the end she gave me a little over the shoulder look as if to say "I know, I got this."

Communion Photography

I've always been fond of photographing Communion. It's a perfect age, and just as pretty as a wedding.

hello beautiful!

Oh snap. Is it Monday already? We thought we'd start the week off with some fun. A Selfie Contest!

Need a selfie stick? You’re in luck! Simply head to our contest page on Facebook to post your best individual selfie in the comments section for a chance to win a selfie stick! The one with the most votes (FB Likes) wins. Winner will be announced next Monday, June 15, 2015.

Here are some tips for taking a great selfie. • Pay close attention to your background before photographing. • Know your good side or bad angles. If you cannot find the right pose, just opt for your sweetest smile! • Look for good light. • Be confident. We’re our worst critics. You’re more beautiful than you know. • Hold your phone slightly above your head. • If you wear glasses tilt your head down slightly, it helps minimize the glare. • Please stay out of the bathroom.

…of course, the more creative the better! Lets see those selfies!!! Good luck!
