(This post has been sitting in my draft folder for weeks.) Every year near the beginning of the new school year, we have an official “first day” which includes, getting on the bus {the van}, packing our lunch, and having fun school snacks. And with all this excitement, two year old Joey got into his […]

In April 2009 my cousin Chris married a beautiful, wonderful girl named Ania. And now these two amazing people are expecting their first baby in January. We took these pictures at the beautiful gardens at the Masonic Village in Elizabethtown, Pa. The light was stunning, the fall bokeh was gorgeous and the weather was beautiful. […]

I am honestly so happy and excited about how much I’ve grown in my photography in just one year. It helps of course to have professional editing software and better lenses (both pictures were taken with the same camera) this year. But all the same, I’ve learned so much in regards to posing, backgrounds, editing […]

It seems to rain every few days around here and for the first time I ventured out past the protection of a roof to photograph the raindrops. ~Mary Kate

Way back in spring my mom came up with a plan to re-do my sisters’ bedroom and a few months later my dad helped make her plan a reality. In June he built his first piece of furniture, their loft bed. It’s truly wonderful and gives them so much more space in their already small […]

All the pictures are from Ocean City, NJ School has started, jeans and sweaters are out of closets, chai tea is a regular occurrence, and pretty soon the leaves will start to change. But this summer was amazing and I’m not ready to let it go. Not yet. When I was going back through my […]

I think I’ve finally found my “style” of photography. At least the editing part. I’ve been struggling for awhile to have my own unique style. I would end up editing my photos to look like other photographer’s photos but I wasn’t ever completely thrilled with the results. But then I started to shoot in RAW […]

Today is my very last first day of highschool and to celebrate my Senior year, I decided to start a 365 project. I’ve only tried this once before and I got through about a month and this time I’m determined to do better. And this time around I’m posting my pictures on flickr and they […]

I love these little girls so much! Their gorgeous Mama is my cousin, Jen. She’s funny, sweet, a wonderful mother and an excellent hostess. I had an amazing visit at their house in Napa Valley. And in a few months their family will be blessed with a little boy! Love you all! ~Mary Kate

I got to do my first guest post for Morgan over at Snapography. Here’s a small preview: Late night summer storms. The split-second flash that lights up the night sky, followed by the house shaking boom of the answering thunder. You know, the kind that make you want to run into Fraulein Maria’s room in […]

On Sunday July 22nd I flew to California by myself and had the best two weeks in Santa Paula, CA at Thomas Aquinas College. I went to the college’s two week High school Summer Program that they have every summer for uprising Seniors. And it was incredible. Everything was incredible, from the people I met […]

The Schultz’s have come to visit our house every year since before I can remember. They are part of my mom’s huge extended family, my Aunt and Uncle and cousins. This year they asked me to take their family pictures while they were visiting and luckily we were able to catch some gorgeous light at […]

This little character is the definition of “boy”. ~Mary Kate (Pictures are from a warm May evening.)
