Hey there! Let me tell you all about this amazing photo shoot we had on Broad Street in Philadelphia. It was an absolute blast!

Picture this: a sunny day, but cold day, cheerful vibes, and a girl who was ready to shine in front of the camera. We twirled, we laughed, and we had the time of our lives. It was pure magic!
Now, let me talk about her outfit. Can you believe she wore a feather dress?

It was absolutely stunning and added such elegance to the photos. The feathers created this whimsical effect as she gracefully moved around. It was like something out of a fairy tale!

After capturing some breathtaking shots on Broad Street, we decided to explore the charming side streets. The cobblestone roads and quaint buildings created the perfect backdrop for our portraits. Every corner we turned revealed new hidden gems, with colorful murals and architectural details that made every image unique and memorable.

Throughout the shoot, we formed a great connection. It felt like we had known each other for years! We laughed, shared stories, and created a comfortable atmosphere that allowed her true personality to shine through. It was such a pleasure capturing her joy and radiance.

As the sun started to set, we took advantage of the golden hour lighting. The warm, soft glow added an extra touch of enchantment to the entire experience. The way the light enveloped her, making her look like she was glowing, was simply breathtaking.

By the end of the shoot, we had not only captured incredible photographs but also forged a beautiful friendship. This girl's contagious energy and adventurous spirit made the day unforgettable. It was a true celebration of life, love, and the incredible art of photography.

I can't wait to show her the stunning portraits we captured together. They truly embody the magic we experienced on that special day in Philadelphia.

Why I personally love Philadelphia’s Broad Street

I truly think it takes a bit of time in your life, to truly appreciate the little things in life. I've been fortunate enough to live in other areas of the region and travel the world.  With folks I meet on these travels.. They like to ask where I am from and I say proudly, "South Jersey."  And then I get the oh.. you live in New JOISEY.. and have to kindly correct them that it's not like that at all.  Often times, I'll skip the Jersey and say, "Suburbs of Philly."Oh.. I've been there. Dirty city. Ugly city. Unfriendly city.

 I'll often times mention a few beauties like Longwood Gardens, Morris Arboretum, the Philadelphia Art Museum.. Rittenhouse Square... a lot did not visit nor see.For me, I like the hustle and bustle and some of the grit I find appealing.  I love Philly. I love how it has transitioned over the years to a culinary mecca.  

With world class chefs setting up shop and little neighborhoods popping up like Old City and Fishtown is transitioning.. to even Pasayunk.. becoming a great place to dine al fresco and go shopping in South Jersey. Right down to Reading Terminal Market and our beautiful 30th street station.

 I love the graffiti art walking tours and the robust history of this little gem of a town.  I like being able to walk a city block and have a smorgasbord to use as my background disposal and for my beautiful clients!!  Especially, downtown Philly. I love the architecture. 

I'm proud to say I live here and it took a long time to realize the little gems around me and even in South Jersey! Book one of my favorite sessions today!
