One couldn’t not help but fall in love with this little bundle of joy. Johny was so alert and awake, posing for the camera. We love being a part of these special moments with you and your families.
We can’t wait to photograph Johnny again soon.

How the story started for me:

Two years ago certain Patty called to inquire about wedding photography for her daughter’s wedding. Little did we know she was the Patty – the wife of Mike’s best friend from high school. Fast forward to the wedding at One Atlantic where I watched Mike’s reunion with all of his friends, especially Betta. It was the first time she had seen him in over thirty years! If you have teens, you know how inseparable they are. That is what Mike and John’s friendship was like. Betta was like a mom to Mike.

After the wedding we stayed in touch and Mike and the Crownes reconnected. When Ella was born, we couldn’t resist to go visit and join them for their traditional Sunday family dinner of pasta and home made sauce with meatballs. I was apparently talking about them for three weeks! Yes they are that good.

It was amazing to document all the warmth and love this family has for each other and for their friends. Betta shared her favorite photos with us on her iPad. She is more then eighty! She called her husband “Ed you are sooo funny!” after 60 years of marriage! Betta cooked and Ed did the dishes…He did take a break to come check on baby Ella though.

The photos are a slice of their lives. Not necessarily arranged and posed portraits, just moments as they happened that day. Baby Ella will have them to remember her great grandparents! This is when I LOVE what we do the most. Making history.

I hope you remember these cute little guys from last year. We all got a little wet documenting how they swim in the pond.
We met the whole family, including brand new baby Bella, this year and posed for a little while, but soon creativity and fun took over – wheelbarrow, apples, hay, pilgrim costume, hay ride and sparkling green tractor that would make my niece Vali turn red with envy. We captured lively lifestyle images that make the kids’ personalities shine. So much fun….We were taking hay out of our hair for hours, but it was worth it.
Can’t wait to do it again next year!

Remember the super cute belly shoot from a couple of moths ago? Baby is finally here!
We were so excited to meet baby Carol. She was the cutest and most cooperative little girl. We are looking forward to watching her grow.

It makes me so happy to see our couples’ growing families! I photographed Danielle & Stefen’s wedding at Appleford in 2008. We had an amazing time and I could not imagine them hiring another photographer once it came to documenting their growing family. It was a pleasure meeting their new son Ray! What a cutie.
Congratulations and we are looking forward to watching him grow.

We photographed Heather and Doug’s wedding at the Four Seasons last year and we so thrilled when they announced that they were expecting. Granny Pat knew that we absolutely had to do newborn photos. We visited the new family at their Philadelphia home when baby Avery was just ten days old and loved that everyone joined us for her first photo session. Hopefully one of many.
We are looking forward to watching her grow!
Congratulations! Enjoy every moment. Thank you for allowing us to preserve these memories for you.

Baby Ava visited the studio today with her family. We loved meeting her for the first time. She brought her cousin Cameron and they both did an amazing job in front of the camera.
Congratulations Ashley & Ron! She is beautiful. We are looking forward to documenting Ava as she is growing up.
