Don’t worry about a thing.. is every little thing.. gonna to be alright? 2022 is CRAZY LOL
Bob Marley may have been onto something. I know things are complete insanity right now. I haven’t watched the news in months, but I do read, A LOT and I do see what it costs at the pump.
In my Shooting Star Photography world, I truly do want my clients to not worry about a thing because IT IS going to be alright. Time is passing by. Sometimes, we need to just live in the moment and maybe that’s what he was onto. That being in the present.... magic! Take a deep breath of the air around you and look around the room. You will probably smile. You’ll smile whether you are at your desk, or home, or with your children because that world, in front of you, is what you created. It may be perfect, but it is yours, right?
Magical unicorn sessions are always a delight!
Capturing smiles worldwide. My job and this little angel's hugs are worth it.
Listen... life is what you make of it. You can either see the glass half empty, or the glass half full. So what? House is messy, clothes need washing… those aren’t permanent things. Just like rough times, they shall pass and they always do and they get cleaned up eventually, right?

Happy Happy Joy Joy. Vintage in the studio in Haddon Township.
My job is to get you to enjoy and be in the moment with your family. That’s all. And that’s what we do. We sit back and watch the magic unfold and we capture that through our lens. I love what I do and I love seeing my customers happy and enjoying themselves and thus, they’ll enjoy the final images and walk away HAPPY. We need a bit more of that in this world.
One Dress- Multiple Looks
I can't tell you how many times am asked if this dress (not this one in particular) can be used in this particular setting. The answer is YES. If you have the right photographer, they can help stylize each and every session to capture what you want to do!
Love this Anna Triant Dress and the brunette beauty truly shines. We took this at Weymouth Furnace in Atlantic County.
Fairy sessions in a local park.
Fairy Magical Sessions. I always love adding a little magic to our images.
Winter fairy. We actually created this "snow" effect in post to make it more magical.
Twirling on the streets of Philadelphia.
Same dress (which is made by Anna Triant) by the way. Different location in Philadelphia. It's also the same girl as above.
Twirling in a meadow in Sewell, NJ.
Taken in a local park in Sewell, New Jersey. Same dress as all other examples.
Having fun in the cornfields in Alloway, Salem County, NJ.
Photoshoot in Alloway, Salem County, New Jersey. From country gal to city girl.. styles can be versatile.
As you can see, just one dress, can be used in a variety of locations and situations. That's what we are here for and to create beautiful images for our customers.
If looking to book the most magical Philly photographer around, we are here for you!
Have a magical day, my friends!
