Teaser: Child Portraits at Haverford College

Warning: absolutely stunning eyes (and eyelashes) ahead! You've been warned.

Just a few teaser images from my shoot tonight with D…





I'll do a full write-up once I get through them all, but I wanted to share just a few pics of this sweet (and active!) toddler from today's session at Haverford College.

Enjoy!

Happy Fourth of July

Wave your little flags, watch the sky for fantastic colors, and eat yourself silly among friends and family!


You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism.

July Desktop Images

Every month I feature new images for download for you to use as your desktop background. Click to download it and see it at its huge size and resolution.

I visited Valley Forge National Historical Park a few weeks ago on a scouting mission for a project. I went during "golden hour" and the place was list up beautifully. There's really no better time for lovely, sun-drenched pictures than the hour or so before sunset. I try to schedule all of my shoots around this time so that I can get this gorgeous look. Photographers refer to this as "golden hour" or "magic hour". It's easy to see why.

Enjoy!
