Family Portraits: The Peters

 I had the opportunity to go up and take these photos in York, PA on a farm of the Peter's family. Taking a family photo of 19 people can seem like a daunting task, but they made it one of the easiest experiences for me! I didn't have to photoshop any of these faces, folks. The eyes were all open, and the faces were all smiles. Here are some of my favorites from that day:

















 Lanny is a farmer, so this was an obvious choice for a prop for him:



Lanny and Ruth Anne are the last people you'd see on a motorcycle, so we had to have some fun with the one they had at the barn with this shot:

Portrait Session: Casey

Casey's mom, Lauren, won a free portrait session with me after bidding on the gift certificate for a one-hour sitting at a softball fundraising event. We were able to go to a beautiful park in Eldersburg, MD.  Casey was a lovely subject to work with, and was great at improvising and working around the poses that I set up for her. Her personality was bright and bubbly, and I felt that in every shot I took of her that day. The lighting was wonderful that day, and despite some light showers in the middle of our session, it all worked out. Here are some of the shots from that day:
