Well the weather outside is weather… {cleveland family photographer}

If you’ve lived in Cleveland or the surrounding areas for any period of time (or you’ve even visited for one single afternoon) you may have noticed the weather here is… temperamental. At best. Sometimes, Mother Nature can be a downright B-word. This winter and then Spr-inter have been really, really crappy. I *hate* being forcedContinue

Pretty Photo Challenge {cleveland photographer}

I belong to a number of photography communities on Facebook. One of those group is Pretty Presets for Lightroom. The group is really nice for photographers of all levels. I’ve been a community member for quite some time; I have been published in their magazine, and have had three articles published on their blog! TheContinue

Your legacy in photos {cleveland photographer}

On Thursday, Feb 1, my Grandmother Martha Randall left this life for the great dance floor in the next. My husband, kids, and I drove home to PA on Friday and spent the weekend with my parents and the rest of my family. We did as so many others do when there is a loss;Continue

Caleb’s newborn session {cleveland newborn photographer}

Sweet Caleb Clay was in a hurry to meet his family! He is healthy and perfect, despite his slightly early start ❤ His early-ish birth also made scheduling his session a bit easier- we had to reschedule his session because NEO was nailed with a pretty nasty storm (though nothing like what my hometown outsideContinue

Mandi’s Maternity {cleveland maternity photographer}

On this freezing Thursday, I’m throwing it back to Mandi’s maternity session! We had a beautiful, chilly day. Big Brother Ben was *so* adorable, giving kisses and snuggles, and big smiles! It’s so awesome to be able to include the new “big” sibling in maternity sessions.  Isn’t she beautiful? Perfection, they name is Charlie Belly. Sometimes,Continue

Elise is 6 months! {CLE baby photographer}

Playing catch-up as always! Oh how I miss those beautiful summer evenings. Little Elise left me speechless when she pushed herself up into a crawl! Couldn’t you just eat her up? She has the sweetest little face ❤  You. Guys. ❤ I was given this hat by a vendor to use for newborn photos, onlyContinue

Film Photography Love {cleveland film photos}

Once again, I need to sing the praises of my favorite film developers, Old School Photo Lab, in Dover NH. I sort of, kind of, went nuts with my film. I think in June-July I developed something like 10 or 12 rolls. I was getting the actual 4×6 prints back as well as high resContinue

When Madison turned 4 {Brunswick child photographer}

I’ve been photographing Madison “Mads” since she was about 8 months old. She was as full of spunk then, as she is now! And she is insanely beautiful. Child model material for sure. She is such a perfect mix of her gorgeous mom and her hilarious dad. She’s pony obsessed like all four year oldContinue

Dexter is ONE! {Twinsburg Baby Photographer}

Dexter, it’s been a joy to Watch You Grow over the year. You are the sweetest little pumpkin. Your sparkling smile cannot be beat and your precious pout could melt even the iciest of hearts. Your cheeks are divine and I’m so glad I got to hug on you so much. I could photograph Dex,Continue

Extended Family session {CLE Family Photographer}

If you’re lucky enough to have your family nearby, you’re lucky enough. Getting to meet the Pienta clan this summer was a treat. I’ve been shooting for Joey and Mandi for nearly two years now and I recently got to meet Joey’s side of the family 😀 I have a feeling we’ll need to updateContinue

Moms in the Picture

It’s Mother’s Day this weekend here in the States, and this week I’ll be sharing some of my favorite #momsinthepicture over on my Facebook page. I was inspired to do so, with help from the good people at Pretty Presets who’ve written up some helpful blog posts to help you get in the picture. YouContinue
