Scotty Brown | Art Showcase | Central PA Commercial Photographer

No comments

I love getting the out of the blue e-mails from Scotty Brown letting me know that she has just completed or will soon be completing a painting because it means that I will soon get to photograph it and admire it in person. And even more enjoyably, I will soon be able to steal a few moments just talking about art with Scotty. That is one of my favorite parts. Art is such a subjective thing and when my attention is grabbed, my biggest curiosity is what kind of journey the Artist went through when he or she purposefully created a work of art.

Big Girl Hailey | 12 Month Edition | Mechanicsburg Baby Photographer

3 comments

I have enjoyed an amazing photographic journey that lasted over a year with this beautiful little girl and her incredibly beautiful parents. Hailey is a Princess in our Baby Milestones Program. The result is a collection of images showcasing the evolution of Hailey’s growth, her smiles, her adorableness and her mobile mastery from before she was born to confident walker all in the span of about 1 year. It amazes me all the time to witness such drastic changes that occur that 1st year. And to have the great honor of being able to photograph it along the way makes me feel more like Aunt Gracie than just the Photographer.

Totally love the cupcake one! Grace, you do such a wonderful job matching everything in the photos – love how the shirt, cupcake and background all blend seamlessly. Such attention to detail! Awesome! And Hailey’s a cutey too!

There will only be 1 background set up, which is in the sample, with small adjustments made based on age. And parents & individuals are more than welcome to view the shots from the camera during the session and choose the one they like best before they pick their final package. All images will receieve our signature style of editing & retouching to enhance the spookiness of monsters or the beauty & cuteness of our princesses and adorable ones =)

Hi. I was wondering if we get to see the pictures and select the photo we like before ordering the packages? Also, will you have available a plain white background? Thanks!

Grace Lightner - October 9, 2010 - 11:23 am

Yes

Amy Chapman - October 9, 2010 - 10:36 am

She is 7 months (sitting with assistance), is the background you will be using the one in photos above?

Grace Lightner - October 9, 2010 - 8:09 am

Great question! For babies we will be propping them up and using the same background or if they cannot be propped up we will lay them on mummy wrap and shoot from above. How old is your baby?

Amy Chapman - October 8, 2010 - 9:15 am

Hi! I was wondering what kind of background you will be using for the babies? Will there be more than one to choose from? Thanks

Leslie & Matt | Tie The Knot | Harrisburg Wedding Photographer

1 comment

I have grown to have great fondness for this couple. Especially Leslie. When we start chatting an hour can go by in a flash as I listen to her beautifully genuine stories of herself, life, Matt & her Family. She has an endearing quality about her that you just can’t help but to be drawn to. Matt is Leslie’s calm, her rock, her source of endless laughter. He is a bit of a cut up and balances Leslie’s more serious nature perfectly.
