Snow Day

While other people might have been getting ready to go out on a romantic date with their significant others this Valentines Day, I was running my butt off doing a million things in my hometown in Pennsylvania. I had a lot of errands to run, wedding things to do, and a maternity shoot to fit in before the babies grace the world with their presence (more on the maternity shoot later).

I had just finished up my friend's maternity shoot and I was on my way to a store when it started snowing. First it was just flurries, but then it started coming down nice and slow. When I was pulling out of the store parking lot, the snow flakes had gotten much bigger! It was so beautiful!! I had my camera with me so I called my brother in-law right away and asked if I could borrow my oldest niece for a few minutes for a snowy photo shoot. Of course he said yes and my niece Madelyn was so excited to help me out! 

Once I got to my sister's house, I quickly bundled Madelyn up in her favorite coat, brushed her hair, and ran outside into the snow! We had so much fun! I really enjoy the photos that I got  of my sweet niece, and I was so happy that I jumped on this importunity for a snowy shoot!





I couldn't help sneaking a selfie with this cutie

Dancer Project


       A few months ago I wrote about having personal projects, and today I have an update! This summer I contacted some dancer friends of mine and we set up some photo shoots to add to my dancer project! With the winter not being an optimal time for outdoor shoots, I was able to work on this project and get some editing finished.

        This is Meghann. She was my co-worker and a beautiful dancer. I had been working with Meghann for a few months before I mentioned my project, and she was all in! Meghann had mentioned that she needed some new head shots taken anyway so we knocked both out in one evening. 

        We had a wonderful time shooting on Roosevelt Island with the Queensboro Bridge behind us! I think we got some great shots that showed Meghann's strength and grace! 


          I am really happy how Meghann's shoot turned out! It made me excited to add more shoots to this body of work! More to come soon!
