Now Offering Custom Framing

This winter, I learned all about custom framing thanks to a few retired framers who were willing to share their craft.  This was the next logical step for me as I made a shift a few years ago to providing high-quality artwork with the intent of simplifying this overwhelming task for my clients.  And I am so excited to see this coming together with the purchase of professional framing equipment and setting up my workshop.

Feeling the Love with this Maternity Session

Happy Valentine’s Day!  Just had to share a few favorites from this recent maternity session.  It will warm your heat with a sweet couple ready to welcome their baby into the world.  I love this mama’s red dress and one of my favorites from the session is the silhouette of her in that dress!

Expectantly Waiting: A Maternity Session Before Two Becomes Three

I love photographing expectant parents together.  Sometimes dads-to-be can feel as though they’re looked over as we focus on that growing baby belly.  And while a mama is doing all of the work growing that baby, a dad’s role goes from supportive partner to so much more.  I see this in my own family and can say that he is a huge deal for my two boys.

First Birthday Cake Smash and Bubble Bath Session

This little sweetie turns one today and we celebrated with a photoshoot a few days before her birthday with a smash cake and bubble bath!  We didn’t get any real smiles until the cake was served, that’s when the magic happened.  Sometimes babies don’t know what to do with cake, but this baby girl knew she liked it!

Maternity Portraits at Cranberry Photo Studio

This maternity session in the studio is the start of something beautiful.  This sweet mama and her baby on the way is the main story.  And the backstory is that there are lots of maternity and newborn sessions on the horizon and I couldn’t be happier!  Focusing on this niche has allowed me to explore new techniques and offerings like this overhead angle, mixing studio and natural light and a new wardrobe of maternity gowns, newborn swaddles and knitted things.  I feel like a kid at Christmas!
