New Baby and Sister

 I have had the pleasure of knowing (and photographing) little S for almost 2 years now! She is one of the sweetest girls I know and I love watching her grow. Every time I see her, she's even cuter and more fun than the last.  Now she has a baby sister, who I know will be just as much fun to get to know as S has been.  S is such a loving big sister and did an incredible job with the photos. I was blown away with how she interacts with the baby being so young. Baby F was equally great with the photos.  I always love sleeping infant pictures, so I was happy to get some of those, but she was also awake for some, which is always nice. She was so alert and calm, I could really do almost anything with her. They're both so sweet and easy to work with! I can't wait to see how the two grow together. I am so lucky to have such amazing friends who have such amazing kids. Hope you all enjoy the preview of these sweet girls as much I did photographing them!

So precious!

All the little details. Just love.

Reading Date & an Awesome Sunset

My boyfriend and I used to have "Library Dates" every week. ...that lasted about a month.  Recently, we've moved and only 15 minutes away is this awesome park right on the Delaware River.  You can see Philadelphia, and more importantly the Philadelphia Airport and the planes flying to or from the city! We, obviously, love to read and decided to move our "library dates" outdoors to this park for "reading dates."  I absolutely love going here once a week to sit on a blanket in the sun and read! I made the mistake (or great decision) of bringing my camera with me this time, so I only read a chapter of my book, but, boy! did I get some great shots! I love the sun at this angle for photos (NOT for driving! So difficult!) I know it's not the best to point your camera at the sun so much, but I just cannot help it! I love it! Some of these shots are very similar, but I just couldn't decide.  Don't worry, next week I'll leave my camera at home or this will become an "airplane watching (by Randy) and photo taking (by me) date."

Adventures

I love to travel.  Whether it's a week long vacation to a place I've never been, or a day trip to a place I visit often, like today. This wasn't a jam packed adventure kind of day like we can have sometimes, but it felt just as nice.  The weather was (close to) perfect! Finally, we're getting cooler weather here.  It was still a little warm for perfect day trip weather to me (I like it kind of chilly so I can wear scarves and hoodies!), but the sun felt good on my face with the cool breeze.  We headed down to Ocean City, NJ for a small airshow they put on there.  I love when I'm able to make it to this air show.  Now, I love all (but one) airshows, and this one is much smaller than any of the rest we attend, but that's one reason I like it so much.  It's always in September, after the summer crowds and heat leave the shore. I get to lay on the beach (with room!), read my book, take some photos and listen to the airplanes fly overhead.  More than even being on the beach, I love the ride down to the shore!  We don't take the major highways as much as we can and today we actually got to drive down a new road (to us), which is always exciting.  With the windows down and good music on the radio, it's one of the best parts of traveling.

Six year old, R!

 I met up with R for her 6 year photos at Redbank National Park.  She was so easy to photograph, really a natural in front of the camera.  As much as I love her big smile because she looks so happy and cute, I also really love her little smile.  She seems so grown up; like she could be a little model.  She's such a pretty girl and OH! THOSE FRECKLES!  I really had so much fun with her! I can't wait for more! 

This first one is one of my favorites! Watch out world!

Just LOVE her freckles!!

Seriously, so sweet!

Day Trip to New Hope

 I have been wanting to go to New Hope, PA for over a year now.  I finally made it, and it was so much more than I expected! I love it and I cannot wait to go back.  It's full of unique shops and restaurants.  There's bikers everywhere and I love the site of all the bikes lined up along the street. It has a dirt path along a canal that's really nice to walk though. You can, then, walk across the bridge to head over to Lambertville, NJ.  It's definitely a place worth seeing (and photographing!)

I just love this red door!

The Bridge to NJ and some detailed shots of it (which I love, of course)

Wedding Part Two: Kathy & Mike

Part Two!

I love this venue! I am sure it's beautiful all the time.  We were so lucky to have a beautiful day as well only to enhance everything! The ceremony was amazing.  It was fun, sweet, short and full of true emotions.  I love when couples write their own vows and these two really wrote beautiful ones.  You can really see how much the love each other when the speak those words. Yet, they didn't take themselves too seriously, and there were still plenty of fun, sweetly laughable moments, which make a ceremony truly unique to the couple.  Photos of the family and just the two of them were so easy! Everyone is laid back and fun and it makes for a great experience for everyone involved, not like "work"! I just love them all!

Love this look of the groom watching his bride walk down the isle to him!

I don't know what those looks are about, but I love them!

Excited to get her sparkle on her finger!

Showing off the back of her dress! Love this!

Such gorgeous girls!

"Look at me. at each other. kiss" They had it down pat! Love these!
