Addison Street- Philadelphia/Fall Family and Christmas Sessions are almost gone!
A magical session on Addison Street is the best place to capture some lovely Christmas Photographs. Each tree is lined with twinkling lights in Rittenhouse square. It is a beautiful place to shoot at and safe for children. I love walking around with the families I photograph and finding new nooks and crannies to explore! As a Greater Philadelphia Area photographer, we have so many beautiful locations at every corner. I love it here!
Happy Birthday! Capturing Magical Birthday Portraits in New Jersey!
Celebrating a child's birthday with a portrait session is a wonderful way to capture memories that will last a lifetime. Here are some reasons why it's important to do so:
1. Marking milestones: A child's birthday is a significant milestone that should be celebrated. A portrait session is a great way to capture the child's growth and development over the years, creating a visual record of their life journey.
2. Creating memories: Children grow up so fast, and a portrait session is a way to freeze time and capture the special moments of childhood. Looking back at these photos can bring back memories and create a sense of nostalgia for both the child and their parents.
