Wildflower Fields Senior Session

Aug 28, 2024

Let me tell you all about Kenzie’s wildflower fields senior session—it was a total blast! Even with just 30 minutes, Emily, on the HMP Team, captured so many amazing shots that it’s hard to believe they squeezed it all into such a short time. Kenzie came down from York, which was quite the trek, but […]

How to Easily See Where the Money is Going in Your Business

I started my business with one financial principle — that I would grow my business without taking out any loans or going into debt.  Sure, I didn’t have the best camera starting out and I only shot with a 50mm at sessions, but I saved up and only spent the money to upgrade once I […]

Automate Your Bookkeeping: Spend Minutes, Not Hours Taming Your Finances

Aug 7, 2024

Does this sound like you in March every year? Maybe even April if you really push it off?  You’re anxiously flipping through hundreds of papers and receipts trying to find a specific expense. Or maybe it’s trying to go through your drives, trying to remember exactly where you went every day for the past year. […]

Summer Senior Session at White Cliffs of Conoy

Sep 8, 2023

Most times, the hardest tasks or longest treks bring the best rewards! For sessions at the White Cliffs of Conoy, this couldn’t be more true. The photos below will prove it! It is about a 1.5 mile walk to the location. Nothing crazy terrain-wise, but it definitely can cause a sweat if you don’t take […]

Downtown Annapolis Grad Session

Apr 20, 2023

As a Lancaster, PA photographer, most of our sessions take place at a location filled with greenery. Not many include city streets or water features. So when a client reaches out to do their session in downtown Annapolis, our ears perk up at the chance for a change in backdrop! Especially when it’s for a […]
