The Mayberry family put their house on the market and within less then 48 hours their childhood home had an offer on it. My friend Kaitlyn asked me to do a little surprise shoot for her family capturing some candid moments. Dad the grill master, mom the baker and brother and sister taste testers invited me into there home to share memories and stories over a delicious home cooked meal! Below are just a few photos from the night!














Good Luck Mayberry Family, in all of your endeavors especially safe travels to the Mr. & Mrs. on their journey to Utah! You are a fantastic family full of love and I’m happy you let welcomed me into your home with open arms.
My beautiful lively friend has had the year of her life! Graduated from college, engaged and about to have a baby! Nat makes a stunning pregnant lady. Her and her soon to be husband Grant are great for each other, carefree, full of life, fun and will make great parents! I got to capture some great photos of her family and friends at her baby shower. The best baby shower I have ever attended! My anticipation is growing for the little nunnion to arrive!














Every year I take the Cameron Family portraits and this year Kelly approached me with an idea of doing something different. Getting out of her backyard and have a change of scenery. Our location? A diary farm! Below is just a little preview of some of the shots I got!











Here is to the best years of my life. Graduation has been the most bittersweet moment of my life. People say your graduating into bigger and better things but I think I want to hold onto these years a little longer. I’ll never forget the nights when Dj Carma threw down, karaoke tuesdays, thirsty thursdays, happy hour crawls on friday, mariachi bands and tequila shots, floating chip bowls in baby pools, slip and slides, natty daddys, 326, and all my friends I have made and grown closer with have sculpted my life and have made me the person I am today. Thank you and I love you all!








It’s March and here in Pennsylvania it feels like summer. With weather reaching into the 70’s how could we resist the urge to bust out the grill and make some steaks?! Monday night we cooked up some Delmonico steaks- that the grill master Chase took care of, braised brussel sprouts, and sauteed onions and garlic for a steak topping! Nom nom nom!


Always halve your brussel sprouts because this way they can cook more evenly and faster! Toss with some EVOO, salt, pepper, garlic, and onion. We also had some bacon we got at the farmers market we tossed in there!



Finish with a cold beer, outside and your in for a delicious treat. Cheers to that!
