A new big brother… Main Line Newborn Photographer

March 11, 2010

Mr. A. dazzled me with his personality a few months ago when we met to photograph his family for holiday photos and to document Mommy’s pregnancy. He again dazzled me with his wonderful big brother skills. He was so excited to introduce his baby sister to me and was so gentle holding her. So sweet to see the sibling love! Thank you so much Carrie for having me out again to photograph your gorgeous family. Enjoy your sneak peek!

Thanks for stopping by!

Best,
Michelle

and out like a lamb. Starting off March with a somewhat warmer day so hopefully that is a good sign for the month of March. I am not going to jinx anything by saying any more than that. However it was warm enough to take a stroll with some adorable little people in the city. I had the pleasure of photographing Miss E. again and meeting her little brother yesterday.

Miss E. has grown so much since I have seen her last. She used to be a little apprehensive when I would visit. Mom and I would have to work hard for her to show me her beautiful personality. However yesterday she was all about showing off and flashing me an awesome grin.

What better way to end the session than to have your big sister read you a book?

Thanks for reading!
Best,
Michelle

Stacie: Oh, these are just great. I'm sure the family will love them!

Carol C.: These are precious!

Laura: Love the first one - amazing perspective. Beautiful, children.

Rebecca: These are all great, love those cute expressions!

TaraMc: So cute Michelle. I love how you captured their personalities. The siblings shots are precious too, definitely images to treasure. Great work!

Alicia: What a sweet pair! Love the personality in these!

Holli: So sweet! Love the images of them reading the book together. Adorable!

Jane Eaton Hamilton: Sooo sweet. Love the expressions, and the little boy holding himself up is tdf. The reading is pretty darned cute too.

Dawn: Wonderful expressions and some sweet moments captured here. Congrats on winning her over easily this time!

Michelle: Thanks so much everyone!

Scenes from the Bahamas…

February 28, 2010

I enjoyed a few lovely days on the Grand Bahama Island with my husband this past week. I just wanted to share a few of my favorite photos from our vacation.

I already miss my flip flops. By the way, Teva mush flip flops are the best ever!

A few minute before sunrise…

As the sun is rising…

Island flora…

a very large bird’s footprints…

We stayed at the OurLucaya resort. I highly recommend!

and what’s a trip to the Bahama’s without the drink in a coconut! =)

Stay tuned for a busy week of beautiful baby photos…

Best,
Michelle

giovanna: Beautiful!!! Love those skies!

Carol C.: Beautiful photo's... love the last one :)

Away again…

February 24, 2010

I will be traveling again February 24-March 1. Will return calls and emails when I return. Thanks!

Wondering if I will return again to snow?

Best,
Michelle

Back from vacation…

February 12, 2010

We returned from our Disney vacation to mountains of snow — what is up with that? I can not complain about missing two major snow storms while we played away in sunny Florida and of course I have to share a few images from our wonderful family vacation.

Yes, it was warm enough to swim!

Disney World is truly a magical place…

where else can you be a pirate and fight the swashbucklers with swords?

or train to be a Jedi and face the evil Darth Vadar?

where the mouse is the biggest cheese in town…

and where every handsome prince gets a kiss from his favorite princess…

I am back to catching up on emails and voice mails (not to mention shoveling!!!)

Best,
Michelle

Escaping…

February 2, 2010

to warmer climate. =) We will be out of the office February 3rd – February 10th and will catch up with all emails and voice mails on February 11th.

For those of you in need of warmer climate, may I suggest a trip to Longwood Garden’s Conservatory? It’s perfectly warm and lovely this time of year. I had an opportunity last week to stop and smell (or photograph) the flowers.

I know it is going to be a great photo session when I walk into baby’s room and he wakes up like this…

Love the hair!!! =) This adorable boy, who is just shy of 3 months already has an intriguing personality and loves to be engaged by Mommy and Daddy.

These are my favorite moments to capture for families. I just love that you can see the mutual adoration and love in the photo.

Enjoy your sneak peek, it was great to meet you all.

Ch-ch-changes… ~ Philadelphia Baby Photographer

January 18, 2010

The next couple of months are going to be exciting around here. I can not wait to reveal some of the big changes that are in the works. However mum’s the word until everything is ready to be released. Are you on Facebook? — if so fan us the fan page will keep you up to date and check back to the blog, often. =)

Today I am sharing a sweet, baby girl not quite 2 months old. She already has a sparkling personality and you can see how much she adores Mommy and Daddy. It was great meeting you C. Family and I hope you enjoy the sneak peek of your images!

Every little girl needs a pair of Uggs… Right?

Best,
Michelle
