Family Session at Herr Park in Lancaster PA

Posted on April 27, 2015 by preciousimagephoto

Mother’s Day Session Fun

I remember the days of having to hold them and not let them down or they would run! Who is with me? That is what the little guy did in this session. Put him down and he is off and running! Notice how he is in her hands in almost every picture? If it wouldn’t have been so muddy from the massive snow we got this winter, it wouldn’t have been so bad!

This park has a nice walking path and gorgeous landscapes for portraits! My kids have their sporting events right next door and so it was a walking path for me during those. Every time I would walk the path, I would think about how amazing the photos could be taken here. I can’t wait to experience it when everything is blooming and the weather cooperates!

A mom and her boys! This was her first experience at outdoor portraits. She has always wanted to do them and finally has! I hope she enjoyed her experience even though Mother Nature didn’t want us to! We had rescheduled twice because of the snow! This winter was tough here i Pennsylvania! I hope to get a studio up and running by next winter so my clients and I have no need to worry about the pesky weather!

The sky was overcast this day which made the lighting perfect! Not having to worry about changing light, shadows and shade make such a big difference. I just attended a lighting class last week and can’t wait to put my new knowledge to use! Lighting is key to making a good photo great! Understanding it, how it falls and how to use it to your advantage is so important.

I have so much to learn because with photography and I love doing that! Classes, workshops, tutorials have all taught me so much and I can’t wait to learn more to keep improving! Don’t forget to like my Facebook page and share with your friends!

Mother’s Day Session Family Session

Posted on March 26, 2015 by preciousimagephoto

Well doing this family was such a fun time. Teenage boys are always exciting. You never know which way it will go. They either complain the entire time or love it. Thank god these boys were having fun with it. Their mom was so nice too. I love this little location too! Its a safe, off the road covered bridge to capture some true Lancaster County feel photos. I really love my job and all that comes along with it. Please comment if you like them and share.

Babies, Babies and More Babies

Posted on March 24, 2015 by preciousimagephoto

So today I was looking over some of my recent babies and I thought I would talk a little bit about how I started this company. I ventured out on my own in photography a little over 6 years ago. I bought a nice Nikon camera and a brand new Mac and thought I was set. Started a business with a co-worker and we were off! Little did I know how much actually went into this new venture I started.

After working with the friend for less than 6 months, we decided to split ways and create our own companies. She ended up getting away from photography completely. So that is how Precious Image Photography began while pregnant with my last child. So until she was about 2 I didn’t truly become serious about making this work. She is now almost 5. Things are going great!

Why babies? Well I worked at the baby hospital in my local area for over 4 years as the Photography Manager. I learned there that I love working with babies. I also got plenty of experience with them. This gave me the safety knowledge and the skills needed. I also got the experience of working with the new moms and learning how to listen to them and understanding whether this is their first child or fourth, how different they can be.

How adorable is a sleeping baby?

So I learned and absorbed as much as I could. I would watch videos, attend workshops, and learn from anyone willing to teach me. I have come so far and I love that the learning will never end! My skills are always improving and my love for this deepens. Photography is such an amazing gift to have and share!

Generation Shoot

Too cute!

This was a quick shoot before a storm. We did it right at their house and used the surroundings. I can work with anything. I will find a way to get the right light and the best background available. How cute is the little one? She is so sweet too! Very quiet and well spoken! Enjoy!

Too cute!

Love her little face

Such a cute family!

How true is this sign for everyone?

One of my favs by far!

Mother’s Day Session

Posted on March 19, 2015 by preciousimagephoto

Having your photo in the Lancaster Newspaper Mother’s Day Tribute is exciting! I am super excited to have so many participants this year. I really got a chance to meet some great families. When I did this family, the little girl was just a ball of fire! I had so much fun with her! She was interested in everything I was doing and wouldn’t sit still, but what else would you expect from a 3 year old? Typical. I was prepared! I have 3 kids, nothing phases me! Kids will be kids! Check out some of her adorable faces! I can’t wait to do their photos again!

How can you resist that face?

Precious!!

Just priceless!

Happy Mother’s Day!

Alicia Generation/Mother’s Day

Its always a pleasure photographing people you went to school with. You get to catch up and see how they are doing. Alicia and her husband both went to the same school as I did. They have kids my children’s ages. The reaction I got when posting them on Facebook was terrific! I am enjoying my job and all that comes along with it! Hope you enjoy!

Tina Family/Baby Session

Posted on March 10, 2015 by preciousimagephoto

I will be photographing Tina’s sisters wedding this fall. I got a chance to meet her family and do some great shots with them. Her little chunky monkey was a spirited baby to work with. He needed his pacifier to keep happy until we ready to snap. Works for me! I am a go with the flow type of photographer. Not every shot is going to be perfection, especially working with small ones. I will constantly move myself to follow the child where i need them to be in the frame of my camera. This is something that just comes natural to me. Enjoy!

Cute little owl.

Love is beautiful!

Why are you looking at me?

Two brothers!

Mother’s Day Shoot ~ Brandi

Posted on March 9, 2015 by preciousimagephoto

I am a participating photographer in the Lancaster Newspaper Mother’s Day Tribute. It is a big thing around her to have your photo in the tribute. I love doing these sessions. I get to meet new families and build friendships and relationships with them. Today I am going to talk about Brandi and her wonderful bunch.

This family was a fun group to work with. Due to the winter we were having here we moved it to an indoor shoot. Her family was eager for photos, since they haven’t had them done all together like this before. The colors they wore really look great! This family was ready for their big day!

Lorelai Arrives Early

Posted on February 26, 2015 by preciousimagephoto

I was contacted by Lorelai’s mother in January about doing a birth session. I was over the moon excited to be able capture such a special moment in someone’s life. Her parents didn’t know whether she was a girl or boy. They were most excited in capturing the moment of when they found out. Sadly Lorelai came quick and I arrived about 10 minutes after she. Most importantly thought she is healthy! We were able to capture some great shots and moments. Enjoy!

Love how she is looking at mom!

Foot print time

Who doesn’t love baby feet?

Meet Miss Delaney Jones

Posted on February 24, 2015 by preciousimagephoto

Miss Delaney decided to come into the world early. She was ready!! And she just slept through her entire session. Made life easy for mom and I! I had a blast working with her and editing her sweet face. Look at her, how can I not love my job? Enjoy!!

Such a sweet face!

Working with the little ones can be challenging but I wouldn’t change it! Seeing the end result is always very exciting. I am not sure who is more excited to see them, me or the mom!

Love me some baby feet!!

Working with babies is such a rewarding part of the job. I can hold and snuggle with the new ones and create art for families to treasure for years to come!

So sweet!
