Goldie

Sep 11, 2023

Jenny Jones. If this name means anything to you, you most likely graduated from Bangor Area High School between the years of 2004-2006. Jenny used to be a sweet, hysterical, outgoing, silly & caring girl who was disliked by none. Jenny is now a wife to Matt & a mother to Goldie, and lives on the other side of the country. She continues to be sweet, hysterical, outgoing, silly, caring, and is disliked by none.Jenny reached out to me, not really for herself, but for a special friend ...

Lindsey, David, & Their Tribe of Five

Aug 11, 2023

So many times more than ever, clients show up to a shoot with their game faces on. Meaning, they are ready to smile, pose, and interact with each other in a loving way for the next hour of their lives. I envision (because I have been on this side before,) that on the car ride there, there are incentives and rewards promised for those that cooperate. (Nine times out of ten it's Rita's down the road.)There was something different about this family though. It didn't feel like any of this ...

Ryan & Christy

Jul 06, 2022

May 7th, 2022 will be a date that forever holds a place in my heart. It will certainly hold a special place for Christy & Ryan Fraunfelter. This is the day they exchanged vows in front of their many close friends and family, announced their pregnancy, danced the night away, laughed until their bellies hurt, and kissed a LOT.Almost a year ago, after Ryan and Christy got engaged, I was asked if I would be their wedding photographer. At first, I think I thought (and said) absolutely NOT! I ...

Hudson Michael Miller

Jun 06, 2022

My brother Buck and sister in-law Karly make cute babies. That's pretty much all I have to say to make this blog complete because the photos speak for themselves. BUT, since I like to write a novel about amazing people that stand in front of my camera, I will do so. Buck & I fall into slot 3 & 4 (not respectively) in the birth order of our family. He's the only boy of the family and so he's definitely had to deal with his fair share of hormones throughout his earlier life. We ...

Little Girl & Her Little Girl & Boy

May 19, 2022

This is Christine, also known as my Little Girl. I have been calling her this since the spring of 2005, when we met at ESU and decided to pledge a sorority. We can probably both agree this was one of the silliest decisions we ever made...but a decision we wouldn't regret for one second. This pledging process created a bond some can only dream of. I won't go into details, but I will say the combination of Vaseline and sprinkles does wonders for a friendship. I realized that during this time, my ...

Anastasia is ONE

May 14, 2022

About one year ago, I took care of a new mother, Veronica and her sweet little baby girl, Anastasia. During my shift, I was doing my hourly rounding (like every good nurse does ;)) and walked into Veronica & her husband Charlie totally gushing over their daughter, and it nearly brought tears to my eyes witnessing such a candid and beautiful moment. I cannot remember the details about the next part, but there was a good camera lying nearby, and so I offered my photography skills for a quick, ...

Fallon

Mar 16, 2022

This is Fallon and her beautiful growing family. I met Fallon when I made the decision to change locations at Lehigh Valley. Fallon is a labor & delivery nurse, so if you have had a baby at the Muhlenburg campus over the last 4 years, there is a good chance you've seen her. She's a boss lady. At least, that was always my impression of her after hearing about her coming into the hospital ready to push out a baby, only for her baby Charlotte (pictured) to be in the breech position. An ...

James & His Beauties

Sep 28, 2021

Michelle is expecting her third daughter this fall, and she literally could not be more beautiful while growing this little person inside of her. I have known Michelle ever since first grade when we attended Washington Elementary School together. Naturally, we knew everyone in the school given its small size and population of "satellite students," but I remember thinking Michelle was one of the most beautiful girls I saw walking amongst the hallways. Then, in second grade when we had the same ...

This Family Gives you Abs

Sep 27, 2021

This family is plain and simple, 100% authentic and ridiculously entertaining. I wasn't really sure what to expect crashing a family's lake house weekend, but I literally belly laughed from the moment I got there until the minute we were chased indoors due to an impending lightning strike. Tony & Maryellen are the lovely couple that couldn't seem happier. They started a beautiful family, raised them in the rural town of Pen Argyl and now get to watch their ...

Quinn, Maclin & Sofie the Giraffe

Sep 13, 2021

Just like most moms out there who are working full time and parenting 2 kids under age four, my friend Devin was very on top of getting professional photos done when her son (and second child) turned 6 months old. Devin traveled the distance to come to her homeland of Mount Bethel and it was a no brainer doing this photo shoot at Potomac Park, essentially the park her Dad has been the mastermind behind for years. It was only fitting then that he showed up halfway through the shoot. I have ...
