After such an overwhelming response to the headshot sessions I’ve offered this year, I decided to take this opportunity to talk about the age old question of, “what do I wear?” for a professional headshot.  

Your headshot is more than just a photograph—it's your visual introduction to the professional world. It's the image that potential clients, employers, and colleagues will use to form their first impression of you. So, it's essential to choose the right attire that not only reflects your personal style, but also conveys professionalism and confidence. 

Here are some of my favorite tips about what to wear for your professional headshot session!

Have we had a session together at Lockridge Park in Alburtis?

Today I’d like to share with you three reasons I love shooting at one of the OG Lehigh Valley photo locations Lockridge Park!

Whether you're in the Lehigh Valley area and looking for a family photographer, or just curious about the differences between mini sessions and full sessions, you've come to the right place! As a professional photographer, I offer both types of sessions to my clients, and today I want to share some tips to help you choose the best session for you and your family.

If you're looking for quick shots or just need one good photo for a specific purpose like a holiday card or a pregnancy announcement, a mini session may be the way to go. However, if you want genuine smiles and a variety of images to choose from, a full session is the better choice. With more time to get to know each other and build trust, I can capture those special moments that truly reflect your family's personality.

As you already know, I shoot sessions all over the Lehigh Valley! My location guide provides you with a number of suggestions of places we can hold a session depending on the look and feel you want your photos to have. However, today I want to focus on historic downtown Bethlehem, one of my very favorite places to shoot. Here are three reasons I love Bethlehem for any type of photo session:

Today I want to give you a behind the scenes look at what a full gallery for a family session looks like. You’ve heard us say that the Sentimental (full gallery) package is the best deal for any type of session, but what does that really mean? 

The Sentimental package includes a minimum of 30 images and gives us the opportunity to capture a variety of groupings and poses with each member of your group. You have the option for up to two outfit changes if you desire. The best part? You don’t need to narrow down your list of favorites to just a few images. You get ALL of them as free digital downloads! 

Because my full sessions are defined by image count and not time, it’s not at all surprising potential clients want to know how long to expect to be at a session, especially if their group includes small children. People are also often curious if ten minutes is enough time to capture all the photos and poses they’d like during a mini session.The answer to both questions is an overwhelming YES. How do I know and how am I so confident? The answer is simple…it’s all in the numbers.

Hi, friend! Welcome back! Today I’m so excited to answer some of my clients’ frequently asked questions just after they’ve booked a session. As you may already know, giving clients the best experience possible from initial booking to delivery of the final gallery is extremely important to me. Let’s dive into some of the questions you may have about what happens after booking a session with me. I know you’ll feel you’re in good hands after reading today’s blog!

Choosing outfits on the daily can be a hassle. Deciding what to wear for your photo session, especially if you are coordinating outfits for a family, can be downright daunting! No one understands this challenge better than me.

Though we live in a digital age, there is so much value and importance in printed images. Children love to see photos of themselves around the house (there have been studies done that prove this is beneficial to their development), grandma loves having a new photo to proudly display in her kitchen, and fond memories come flooding back to couples when they see their wedding picture in their living room.

Let’s get real with our talk today. Who has ever dreamt of having the most beautiful family photos only to begin stressing the moment you book the session? This girl right here has!! Yes, that’s right, a professional photographer, mom, and former teacher stresses about getting family photos taken….and for good reason.
