I had a fun morning with the Yuan family up in the Poconos. Its not often that the entire family is together and this gathering was special to document the kids growing up and to celebrate their grandads 70th birthday.
These guys were quite energetic and silly.
an attempt to display their ages…
The whole family.
beautiful ladies
strong men! 
The kids had fun running for me. It was an every man for himself situation.
Thank you so much for having me up. Lovely family and fantastic kiddos.

This family is growing and Samantha is being a fantastic big sister to Olivia. They are buds.
I spent a few minutes with Samantha before we woke up Olivia from her nap.
Sam is all girl. She loves her jewelry box.
Olivia has gotten so big since I saw her last!!!
Getting so big, reaching for her books.
A few snacks on the counter, we did something similar for Samantha when she was just a little younger than Olivia.
Samantha is all girl, but girl loves to play and swing. 
What a good sister!
Bath time!
A little after bath shot, on tush one big girl shopping in her own closet, she wishes she had a stool to get to the good stuff on the top rack!
It was great to see you! I’m excited to see you again in the fall. Can’t believe how fast the girls are growing.
Enjoy your slideshow!

Its been five years now that I have been photographing this family! Seems a little crazy to think. They have come a long way from those parents experiencing everything for the very first time! They are still experiencing and learning new things everyday, it has made them great parents with a fun and loving family. I’m so happy to watch them grow every year and I have made a great set of friends in them along the way.
Ellie is almost two! Where did that time go?!
Like her sister, she’s full of personality.
See?
Abbie is always in motion, she was very excited to dance for me!
They are a great pair of sisters.
Louie the cat is a saint. He takes all sorts of abuse and torture. He is a great cat.
The faces are becoming a signature move for Abbie. I have no objections.
Everyone, cats included being held as per usual!
The basement has been turned into their very own personal amusement park.
Abbie demonstrates the proper way to get into the crib.
Watch out world!
Our now standard must have shot on the kitchen island. This year it involved chocolate chips and jimmies.
Beating the heat with the sprinkler.
Quite content to chill by the pool.
And just a little something extra. After our shoot there was a BBQ with all of the families from the mommy and me group they were in at the beginning. A five year anniversary party. They are all still close and see each other regularly. They are all moodybaby families as well. I am proud that I have been able to capture each family in pictures over the past five years. Special place in my heart for each of you!! It was great to see you all and be able to spend time with everyone at one time!
My fab five! haha!
Don’t forget the slideshow , there may be some dancing from Abbie!! Thank you guys.

Marlo, where to begin? She is such a vibrant little girl! One of those babies who is also an old soul, you can totally picture what she is going to be like and look like when she is an old lady. Her parents, Heather and Tedford are dear friends of mine and Marlo is the most fabulous mixture of each of them. I’ve been waiting to do this shoot forever, it was my gift to Heather for her baby shower. Now they are expecting baby number two, a boy! Oh my my my, two Heatherfords running around, watch out world!
You see what I mean about that old soul? Yet all baby.
Chilling with her pals from Yo Gabba Gabba. 
Think her parents photographer her much? Nah, haha! Totally a ham for the camera. 
In Heather’s old baby Dress. Like mother like daughter. All “tude”. 
And adorable “tude”.
Love it.
To beat the heat in Philly on a hot summers day, Marlo’s favorite past time is to cool off in the fridge. 
hambone much?
The water table has become her personal water seat.
Ah yea, thats better. 
Drama queen?
Favorite.
hehe.
Can’t forget the browns. Anthony and Mandy.

It was such a pleasure and so much fun meeting baby Vivian. I photographed Sara and Justin’s wedding back in 2010, this was a great excuse to see them again!
Vivian loves the swings, especially when dad ducks.
Yay!
Adorable Fam.
We can’t forget Tilly!
An ever moving one year old.
We did a fun experiment with Viv and some whip cream. I think it went over pretty well and in Vivian’s favor. 🙂
After that we totally needed a bath!
Stories before bed
And a little throw back to Justin and Sara’s wedding day below!!!!
It was so great to see you all and meet Vivian. Wonderful home and wonderful family you have. Much love.

What a sweet little Anna! She was excited to enter this world, if I remember correctly mom delivered her within 16 minutes of arriving at the hospital.
I was very excited to meet her. I did a session with these guys when Emily turned one, it’s always great to see families grow.
Dad’s ring for size.
Big sister Emily is now 3. She was a little shy at first…..
But she warmed up.
Little sassy sass. 🙂
Both sets of grandparents were there, very excited to welcome Anna to the family.
You guys look great!
Emily was a very good big sister, especially when bribed with chocolate or pretzels. 🙂
Mom getting some cuddle time.
Love the little details.
Was great to see you guys! Congratulations.

Baby Maggie turned one a few months ago and her parents were excited to document this stage in her life! Maggie is full of life, she loves climbing the stairs, books, making music, her cat and her two dogs.
She is a happy little girl!
Loves her snacks!
Maggie is still mastering the art of walking!
She likes to make music with dad. She enjoyed hanging out in the guitar case.
When Maggie was a newborn she had photos taken in this window, so we went back up for another set.
Love it!!
Big girl on mom and dad’s bed!
snuggles for mom!
She wasn’t too sure about the grass….
Being tossed by dad is one of her favorite things.
I love this. Pure joy. 
I love just waiting to see what they will do, just waiting and watching.
Pretty adorable little family! Thank you so much for having me out.
