Jamie & Andy, Philadelphia Engagement Shoot

Jamie & Andy are adorable! We met up a few weeks ago on a hot/windy afternoon. 🙂 They are gearing up to move to Hawaii in a few months, Andy is in the service.


It was a gorgeous day to be out on Race St. Pier.

We had the darndest time with the wind………..it didn’t like the cute banners Jamie made…..
But I did get one amidst the wind!!
Hunger set in quickly and Jamie had to introduce Andy to Dinic’s. Too bad I don’t eat meat….my Sprite was totally refreshing though. 🙂
A little fun in the market.
Love this one.
For their future Hawaiian adventure.

See you guys next year!!!!!

Luca, Franco & baby sister Siena, Moodybaby Sessions

Luca and Franco are two cool kiddos. I had so much fun with them, they could have kept me occupied for hours showing me their skills, their stuff and goofing off for the camera. I think they rather enjoyed having a personal photographer.

Of course we had to have a batman and joker battle. I mean come on, who wouldn’t!
They love their mama!
Their reward.
Little sister had been naping during all the crazy brother photographs, she was well rested and ready for her close up.She is going to have quite the protective brother army when she grows up.
Love this face!
We went to the pool at the end of our session. Its been their favorite thing to do this summer and both Luca and Franco passed their swim tests which earned them the right to jump off the diving boards and swim in the deep pool.


This was Siena’s first visit.
The boys showing me more of their skills.I had a great time with you guys! Thank you for a wonderful afternoon.Be sure to watch the slideshow for more below.

A few weeks ago I spent the weekend in Ocean City Maryland with a good friend of mine, Mrs. Marybeth, I had a few shoots while there and Marybeth’s brother and his family was one of them. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing these kiddos grow up. They are a fun and lively bunch and Mom has a monumental birthday coming up so we thought a new family session was in order.

Baby Isabella, Philadelphia Newborn Moodybaby

Meet baby Isabella.  Two week old squishy precious baby girl. I had a wonderful session with this family. It wasn’t that long ago that we did a belly session and now there is this adorable little girl! It always amazes me.


Nobody, even the fine furry friend, can keep their eyes off her.
Love these with Dad.
Watching Mom

Spit-up happens. Poor thing. We really put her to her limits. Everything that could possibly come out of a baby came out of this little girl during our session. She was totally pleasant and peaceful through it all though. 🙂 A whole new meaning to being new parents and having what is the beginning of many “firsts”.
Can’t leave out the original baby of the family.
You guys are too adorable.
Congratulatios!Be sure to watch the slideshow below.

Raquel & Greg, Ocean City Maryland Engagement Shoot

I met up with Raquel & Greg down in Ocean City MD a few weeks ago for their engagement shoot.  They live in the DC area but Raquel is originally from Florida and really wanted to incorporate the beach into their engagement shoot. It was her first tim in OC!  We had a gorgeous evening, had to race against a storm at the the end but it was some great scenery for it!


We caught the light just right on the beach.
The storm rolling in…..made for a gorgeous back drop on the bay.
Off to the board walk for a little fun.I’ll see you guys in two weeks!!!

The grounds of Whitewing Farm were gorgeous.

A few details from the brunch.
The speeches were great. Deb’s sister got to read the typed parts of the speech and her husband had the honor of piecing together all the “chicken scratch” written in. It made for  an added comedic feel. 🙂
There was no denying that it was a super hot and muggy day, Neil welcomed the push from Maddy into the pool to cool off!
Congratulations you guys! Thank you so much for making us part of your day.Be sure to watch the slideshow!
