As a girl from Beaver County, I love rivers...and so you can imagine how excited I was to meet Hannah and her mom, Amanda, for a session on the Beaver River at dusk.

How about this gorgeous weather? The light at the end of the day has been just amazing and when Amanda asked to me take her family's portraits, I immediately knew we'd be hiking through the woods to capture this beautiful family in some dreamy sweet light streaming through the tall trees. White's Woods Nature Center … Continue reading Whimsical Woods Family Portraits, White’s Woods Nature Center
Everyone wish this sweet little peanut a happy first year of life! Just look at those big baby blues - what a handsome guy! We took Own's 1st year portraits at his great-aunt's house in Avonmore, PA.
