Election day, 2016.  Basically the culmination and tipping point of 18 tense months in our country.  While many sat in front of the TV biting their nails, I spent my afternoon photographing one of my favorite families.  I learned the “dab”, photographed countless giggles, and then we all shared some Pica’s pizza.  All I’m saying is that my election day was better than yours!

I have been fortunate enough to know the Tang family for a few years now, and it was so exciting having them in front of my camera.  I couldn’t help but smile while editing these photos seeing their personalities shine.  Priscilla, Burchard, Penny, and Pauly, thank you for venturing through Ridley Creek State Park with me! I couldn’t be happier with the moments we captured.   Continue reading “Newtown Square Family Photography | Tang Family”

Newtown Square Family Photography | Chung Family | Ridley Creek State Park

Two weeks ago, after a few rain reschedules, I had one of the most enjoyable family sessions ever.  The Chung family scored one of the most beautiful days with glowing sun and unseasonably warm breezes.  We explored Ridley Creek State Park, discovering hidden paths in the gardens and crickets in the fields.  Andrew is in my Kindergarten class, and while seeing your teacher outside of school can be strange (most of my students think I live in the classroom), he was happy to pose with his sisters and make his parents laugh when it was their portrait time.  Soo and Haesung have 3 amazing children with infectious laughs and mega-watt smiles. I am truly blessed by the families that come into my life. I cannot imagine a better way to spend my days!

Philadelphia Art Museum Family Photography | Lucot Family | Allie Skylar Photography

Beautiful family photos at the philadelphia museum of art

It’s always amazing to me how much families change in just a year.  Children grow, bonds get stronger, 365 days of new memories are made.  One year ago, I photographed Stephanie, Brian, Drew, and  Owen (and Matthew) in the rolling fields of Valley Forge Park.  It’s one of those sessions I will never forget, for many reasons.  Mostly, I will never forget the bond and love this family shared.  This year’s session took place at the Philadelphia Art Museum, high above the urban jungle we call downtown.  We laughed our way down the rocky steps, and Owen ran his way back up, and licked ice cream as the sun finally set.  This family, right here, they’re pretty awesome and I am so glad to continue this experience with them!

Giggles rolled through the fields and tall grasses as the sun hung low.  The Gebhart family held hands and laughed together, enjoying an evening out together.  I was fortunate enough to teach Kayla in Kindergarten last year, and I loved seeing her sparkling personality.  Not to be outdone, little brother Kurt told jokes and giggled deep belly laughs while making silly faces.  I am lucky, y’all.  Lucky to spend tiny moments with real families.  Lucky to capture their dynamic and see document their love.

Philadelphia Family Photography | Bennett and Luft Families

When your family is spread out around the country, it’s very special when everyone is able to come together for a few days.  The Luft and Bennett families (well, most of them!) were celebrating the end of summer in Media and decided it was time to update their family photos.  We were smack dab in the middle of a heat wave (I believe the index was well over 100 that day) yet we all made it through with many laughs (and with rotating AC breaks!).  Here are just some of my favorites… Continue reading “Philadelphia Family Photography | Bennett and Luft Families”
