As a photographer, growing your business is exciting, but it also comes with new responsibilities, especially when it comes to taxes. That’s why I created this post about tax planning tips for growing photography businesses. Knowing what to do ahead of time can save you money, keep you organized, and prevent a lot of stress […]

Alivia’s Hibernia Park senior session was one of those evenings that reminded me why I love photographing seniors so much. The lighting was perfect, the locations were stunning, and Alivia herself? Absolutely radiant. From her natural beauty to her killer fashion sense (seriously, I wanted to buy every single one of her outfits!), this session […]

Julia and Brennan’s Elizabeth Furnace fall wedding was the perfect mix of romance, joy, and downright fun. After 12 years together, these two tied the knot surrounded by friends and family who celebrated them with full hearts and packed dance moves. From the pearl details on Julia’s gown and veil to their hilarious pea row […]

As photographers, we wear a lot of hats: creative, marketer, bookkeeper, editor, and sometimes even part-time lawyer and accountant. But when tax season rolls around, one of the most common questions I hear is: “Can you deduct personal expenses as a photographer?” The short answer? Not usually. But the truth is a little more nuanced, […]

Amelia and Nickolas’s wedding day was the perfect reminder that love doesn’t need a big crowd to be meaningful. Their intimate Central PA elopement in Bellefonte, PA was heartfelt, beautiful, and completely true to who they are as a couple. Originally, they had other wedding plans, but life and circumstances put those plans on hold. […]

Joelle’s Founders Hall summer senior session was nothing short of perfect. I couldn’t stop saying that word the entire evening.

From the moment we started, it felt […]

When I first started my business, I was working photography part-time while balancing another job. If that’s you right now, I get it, you’re hustling on the weekends, editing late at night, and wondering how in the world you’re supposed to handle your taxes as a side hustler. Taxes for part-time photographers can feel overwhelming, […]

This Historic Poole Forge summer engagement session with Becca and Chris was everything I love about photographing couples: laughter, golden light, and a love that shines through every frame. We couldn’t have asked for a better August evening. The kind you dream about. The sky was completely clear, the sun set in a golden glow, […]

That’s exactly […]

This cloudy wildflower field senior session with Ally Eager, one of my 2026 senior spokesmodels, was such a highlight of my summer! I’ve been joking that I basically live at the Wildflower Lookout because I’m there once or twice a week. But honestly…with fields this stunning, I’ll never complain. And this time was extra fun […]
