remember that time on Nutcracker weekend when we had a bunch of snow outside to accompany the beautiful snow dancing on stage inside? ❄️☃️🩰 I definitely prefer the dancing type 💞😉

Four years ago I started working with and what an absolute delight it’s been! We’ve photographed recital portraits, Nutcracker performances and Company photo days - like what you see here from our shoot last month! I’ve gotten to make many new friends, witness some truly amazing dance and eat a lot of delicious handcrafted macarons (IYKYK). So grateful that I get to be a part of their wonderful community!

There’s no better way to spend a Wednesday evening than with the amazing dancers at Artists in Motion Performing Arts!! I love returning in each spring to see what everyone is up to. This year we had some cowgirls and zebras and at least one carnivorous plant ;) So many wonderful dancers!!!

🧡 Our last photo of the night 🧡 A lot of care is put into every photo taken so our students and families have a keepsake they’ll love! Thank you Emily Brunner Photography , our teachers and Miss Erin Umphrey for the beautifully crafted photos!

I wrapped up my Nutcracker season this week with 7,933 photos delivered to all of the amazing productions I'm so lucky to work with. I always try to capture some of the sweet moments before and after the shows as well. This photo, taken after the bows of Main Line Dance Company's final Nutcracker show last weekend, really captures what they are all about. I love the support each dancer gives to one another. One of my favorite things is when the dancers sneak into the audience during the show to watch and cheer (SCREAM😁) for their friends on stage. I haven't quite figured out how to photograph that - it's really more of an aural experience than a visual one! But you can see the love they have for one another here 🥰

This week I finished the UMLY Swim Team senior bulletin board! I love doing this project every year - it’s such a nice way to celebrate their hard work. And boy, do they work hard! Congrats seniors on everything you’ve achieved and on all of your accomplishments yet to come!

Have I already mentioned that it’s Nutcracker season? Next weekend I’ll be photographing 3 amazing productions including Artists in Motion Performing Arts! Last weekend we held a day long photo shoot for their fantastic dancers and this photo was just one of hundreds that we created! The big question is who will win the battle this time? Nutcracker might be undefeated, but will this finally be the year that the Mouse King is victorious? 🐭😅

We encourage anyone who has an interest in taking part in this Christmas classic to audition! This fantastic tale of a Nutcracker doll come to life has been delighting audiences for more than 125 years. Don't miss this wonderful opportunity to be a part of our third annual production of The Nutcrack...

‘tis the nutcracker season

I kicked off my Nutcracker season last night with Schuylkill Valley Regional Dance Company’s dress rehearsal! This is my favorite season of the year and I can’t wait to go back again tonight to photograph their second cast! ❤️📸

I've been suffering from major Decision Paralysis lately. Every time I go looking for a photo to share with y'all, I get completely overwhelmed and can't decide on one. I start to question myself, asking things like - Which type of photo session should I share - dance, senior, family, headshot or something else? Which photo should I share and why? Has enough time passed since I took the photo for my client to have the chance to share it themselves first? And are these questions even relevant or are they just worries I'm imagining? So here I am again, trying to decide and I'm not going to talk myself out of it again 😅

Here are 3 photos that Janice and I created last year (exactly one year ago today) for her portfolio. 3 photos because it's definitely impossible to choose just one. It was hard enough to choose these 3 from all of the portraits from her session! I first worked with Janice in 2018 when she was a dancer in high school and it's been such a privilege to work with her and watch her artistry throughout her college career as well!

Today was Back to Work Day after my summer vacation!

I got to spend the morning with Center for Families, one of my favorite clients💞. They’re opening a new office in West Chester and needed photos of their beautiful and cozy new facility. And while I was there we also did headshots for their new therapists. I love that I get to play a small role in their mission of providing awareness, education and treatment programs for families dealing with mental health and substance use struggles. So thankful our community can count on them as a valuable resource!
