It’s that most wonderful time of the year… and it’s on its way!

No matter how far in advance I plan my holiday shopping, I almost always end up scrambling at the last minute for those unexpected gifts.  It happens every year!  So there I am, out and about in the midst of the holiday rush, fighting crowds, stuck in traffic, and missing out on that good book and a hot cup of cocoa in front of the fire.   So this year, for all those last minute gifts AND even the ones you have plenty of time to purchase, why not consider a gift certificate for a family photo session with yours truly?  All gift certificates come beautifully wrapped in holiday packaging and are all ready to go!  So kick back, grab that new book you’ve been wanting to read, light the fire and warm the cocoa!  I’m just a phone call or an email away and can have most of your holiday gift shopping completed for you in a matter of minutes.  Tempting, isn’t it????

Christmas in July Session Special!

I am always looking for unique things that inspire me.  Last month, we took a trip to New Jersey to visit family, and on the way home we passed this gorgeous old fireplace sitting in the woods alongside the road.  We turned the car around and out I jumped!  I was mesmerized by this beautiful structure, sitting there proudly and peacefully among the trees and overgrown grass that surrounded it.  It looked so lonely, but so charming!  Someone had hung a Christmas stocking on the mantle, which seemed to make the fireplace smile in a way.

It’s moments like this that make me so thankful that I brought my camera along that day.  I was anxious to share this picture on my blog but couldn’t stand the thought of waiting until the Christmas season.  So what I decided to do was to have a “Christmas in July” session special!  Here are the details.  Let’s book that session!

Oh, Christmas Tree!

Ah, the joy of picking out a Christmas tree!  It’s that time of year again when we take our annual trip over to Fidler’s Tree Barn to pick out our Christmas tree.  Let me first say that if you are looking for a place to find your Christmas tree, I highly recommend Fidler’s Tree Barn here in Harrisburg.  We love this place!  We have been going there for the past five years and have continually found the most outstanding selection of trees.  The trees are on display in their beautiful barn, and the friendly faces we find there are always so helpful.  So after a nice dusting of snow this past Friday, we headed over to our favorite tree barn and picked out our beautiful frasier fir.  She now stands proudly in our home where the smiles and wide eyes of two little girls continually stop by to give her a warm welcome.
