That’s a Wrap! | [Chester County Pet Photographer]

My last session of 2011 was a lot of fun. C wanted to do some portraits of herself, her husband J, and their dog B. So we got together at an old barn in their neighborhood that gave us lots of possibilities for beautiful backgrounds.

Sometimes it can be a bit challenging to photograph a dog, but B was great! Even when a neighborhood cat decided she wanted to observe the proceedings. As I shot, she came closer and closer to us—she wanted to check out my camera bag and everyone’s jackets. Then she just sat there, no matter how hard we tried to chase her away or scare her off (I felt bad about it, too!). If you notice that B is looking a little “intense” in these photos, now you know why!

C and J, I really enjoyed working with you and B. Your proofs are almost ready, and I’ll be in touch soon!

Meet Q | [Philadelphia Area Newborn Photographer]

I recently met Q, and I truly think he’s one of the most beautiful newborns I’ve ever seen. Just look at his perfect pink skin and all that hair! He was alert and calm for a lot of our session, but he also snoozed a bit so we could get some photos of him sleeping. He loved being swaddled, and he snuggled in with Dad for a few shots too.

M and M, it was so great working with you and sweet Q. Your gallery is almost ready!

Patti Brown - So cute. Loe his little umbilical cord. Hope you are doing well, girl! PB

Six Months | [Main Line Baby Photographer]

I had a wonderful time with little C, his parents, and his big “sister” J recently. C wasn’t quite sure what to think about all the commotion with the camera, and there were times when he looked at his parents and me like we had six heads (he seemed a little perplexed about the three of us standing there singing “The Wheels on the Bus” to him over and over)! But we captured some beautiful photos of his sweet little face.

In the first image below, I think it looks like C is thinking, “I have these people wrapped around my little finger.” And he does! 🙂

C and G, it was really great to meet you all! Your proofing gallery will be ready soon. Thanks so much!

Nancy at Coneflower Ranch - What a beautiful session Sheila! They all made me smile, great work!

All I Want for Christmas | [Chester County Child Photographer]

I’ve known this family since we moved into the house next door to theirs nearly 12 years ago. So of course, I’ve known little J since the day he was born! It’s been a while since we worked together—here are a few images of him from about four years ago. We often talk about doing a family session, and I’m so glad we finally did one!

We went to one of my favorite Chester County locations, and with the fall color it was the perfect backdrop for this session. J is at a great age—I love that we captured his gap-tooth smile before the jumble of permanent teeth make their appearance.

S family, it was really fun spending some time with you! Seems like we don’t do that nearly often enough anymore, and now that the weather’s getting colder . . . well, let’s just say I hope we get to see you again before spring! 🙂
