I was SO excited for the opportunity to photograph S + R as they awaited the arrival of the new bundle of joy! We met on a nice spring day and they even brought their fur baby, which I love so much! It was fun watching them all interact together. I know S + R are going to be amazing parents!!

The K Family | A Family Session
Well, this fall really proved to be a challenging one. While I had to reschedule many sessions, this one won for most times rescheduled. I felt SO bad for this family. The weather and sickness got in the way time and time again. We FINALLY ended up getting together, and it was an absolutely beautiful day, too!
The T Family | A Winter Family Session
This year, I had the opportunity to photograph this gorgeous family for the first time. We met at a beautiful, local Christmas Tree Farm in, what felt like, a blizzard! They were all troopers, though. Smiling and laughing amidst the snowflakes. By the end of the session, everyone was drenched! I am in LOVE with the images, though!!
N + N | A Couples Session
This sweet couple and their adorable pupper came to me for a fall session. It was a gorgeous day! I love how cute these two are together!! Check it out!!
Miss G | A Fall Session
The fabulous Miss G is growing up entirely too quickly. I’ve been photographing her since before she was walking, and now she is quite an amazing young woman! Being able to watch these little ones grow, and capturing these moments, is such a special opportunity that never gets old. Check out the wonderful Miss G!!
Margaret | A College Senior Sesssion
Margaret’s mom reached out to me about doing a “senior” session for her daughter. She had graduated, somewhat recently, from Allegheny College, but the commencement would have taken place at the height of the pandemic, so it was rescheduled. Her mom thought it would be a nice surprise to hire me to capture Margaret in some of her favorite places on campus! We had SUCH a great time, and I really enjoyed learning more about Margaret, her mom, AND the campus!
The H Family | A Summer Family Session
This summer, I had the pleasure of working with this beautiful family from the DC area! They were up visiting family and asked if I would do their session while they were in town. It had been about 7 years since I had last seen them, so I couldn’t believe how grown the kids were!! We had an absolutely gorgeous day!
The E Family | A Maternity Session
I met with the E family this spring as they were preparing for the birth of their new addition. Little N was SO sweet during the whole session! I couldn’t get over it!! Mom was just glowing, too. We had a great time!
Family Love | A Fall Family Session
I ADORE these humans! Being presented with the opportunity to capture their amazing family made me SO happy. Do you ever have those people that come into your life and just make it BETTER? For me, that is this couple. They are genuinely wonderful people, and each one of them has a beautiful soul and so much to offer the world. Plus, check out how stunning they all are?! STAHHHHP!
Miss H | Dance Session
Miss H was an absolute DOLL during her dance session! She may have missed out on recital, but she brought ALL that sass during the session, and I loved every second of it!!
The D Family | A Summer Family Session
Could this family be any sweeter?! We met one gorgeous summer day to capture these moments while their girls are little. As we all know, time FLIES by. It’s so great to have these memories documented. We spent some time by the water before moving to their beautiful yard. The girls were so much fun and I am so excited about the shots we were able to get!
Little Dancers | Kelly Rhoades Photography
These sweet dancers might have missed out on their recital because of the ‘rona, but their awesome mom made sure to get their dance pictures done, anyhow! Aren’t these talented little ladies adorable?
The G Family | A Family Session
I met this wonderful family one fall day for some family pictures. I first met this mama and her girls when our oldest girls were just in kindergarten. It’s hard to believe it’s been that long! Time flies. Now, her girls have grown into beautiful young women. It was such a pleasure having the opportunity to photograph them. Enjoy this little sampling of our time together!!
Miss G | A Fall Children's Session
I have been photographing the lovely Miss G since she was just 9 months old. There is something so magical about having the opportunity to watch little ones grow, and being able to capture those different stages of life, year after year. I really feel honored. Miss G has grown into a pretty amazing young lady. Her parents have done an outstanding job, and I can’t wait to see what she accomplishes in life!
A Fall Family Session
This beautiful family came to me in the fall, seeking a session so they could surprise their families with some photos! It was an absolutely gorgeous day, and it was awesome to see these four! SO happy N and C have found one another!
The M Family | A Fall Family Session
Hey everyone! It feels SO good to FINALLY be able to catch up on some blogging after the crazy-season. This LOVELY family met with me one gorgeous fall evening, and the LOVE they have is ahhhmazing! I absolutely enjoyed my time with them! How adorable are they?!
The P Family | A Fall Family Session
I met with the P family one beautiful fall day at a local apple orchard. Mom wanted some updated images of the three children, so we spent some time playing between the rows of trees. The light was SO gorgeous and I was thrilled with how the images turned out. I hope mom was, too!!
