I wasn’t a theatre kid in highschool but a dancer and performer. I definitely got the bug after highschool though and performed in regional theatre and then moved out to LA for five years where I helped start a theatre troupe, performed, produced and did everything under the sun while I studied acting. It was and still is a part of who I am. So when I get a theatre kid for a session I KNOW we are going to have a blast. Nobody catches on to my posing direction faster ha!

Lucia was a dream to work with. Fun, funny, easy to smile and this girl knew how she wanted to be photographed. Getting into the studio for portraits is not the typical request but I wish more kids were open to it. We got some amazing shots to celebrate everything about Lucia and her awesome personality for her senior year! Congratulations beautiful girl - now go get that big dream wherever you go!

I know sometimes it’s hard to convince your senior guy that he needs photos too. Getting in front of the camera isn’t easy for anyone and for a lot of high school senior boys it can be the absolute last thing they want to do. I always promise them #1 - I won’t make it painful. We do our best to shoot efficiently and I don’t ask them to do anything that makes them feel ridiculous. And #2 - include things that are important to them. Music, sports, your car, WE CAN SHOOT THAT!

Matthew was like a lot of my senior guy clients - finally agreed to shoot because his parents really wanted it. We did a few shots in studio to get his tuba and his guitar based on some really artistic reference images dad sent and then headed out to a park nearby in Harrisburg. At the end of the day (like every other boy I’ve ever photographed:) he said, “That was actually fun” and he got some great shots to celebrate his senior year. Mom and dad were pretty happy too!

I absolutely fell in love with Kira the first time I met her! She was the epitome of the word bubbly; everytime we met for a session she was positively beaming, Her sweet little smirk made me crack up everytime and we would end up giggling through every set. And oh boy - the sets of images we shot! Camp North End in Charlotte is an amazing backdrop for senior photos and we took advantage of a gorgeous day in North Carolina. We even got to include her shy fur baby in a couple of studio shots! I love it when we can create magic that’s all about the things that are important to you! I also love that mom made sure to tell me that being able to see Kira’s adorable freckles was important to her as photographers in the past had gotten rid of them in images - THE HORROR! I want to showcase everything that makes a client uniquely them!

This gorgeous family came into the studio for a milestone session for their sweet baby girl and of course we always capture family portraits during our time together! They brought their A game in outfits and we spent our time together capturing amazing family image and then moved onto adorable birthday images for their sweet pea who couldn’t have been more fun! I’m so glad they chose their family images for a large collage in their living room and they had so many portraits to pick from! I loved capturing these memories for them!

Harrisburg-nc-dance-portraits | cobi

Ever since I’ve known Cobi, I’ve known that dance was pretty much her whole world! This girl is funny, sweet and talented all in one tiny package that packs a lot of punch when she jumps into the air:) It was so great to have her in the studio to do some dance portraits. She was up for anything and a total joy to capture for these dance portraits. I can’t wait to have her back - I’ll just have to grab her when she’s not traveling and competing all over the state of North Carolina haha!
