There's no substitute for the lasting quality of professional pictures. Capture your family in their best light—from the four-footed to the freshest little bun out of the oven—with one of these phenomenal local photographers who specialize in exactly that.
1. Slobbery Dog Photography
Look no further than the Slobbery Dog portfolio for a kaleidoscope of mugging mutts. If you've ever called yourself a crazy dog parent, you already know the value of a portrait that captures your best friend's unique personality, and Maggie's got a gift for just that. The Senior-for-Senior program helps support older and long-term shelter pups by accepting donations toward their care in lieu of a fee for your senior dog's session.
2. Unleashed Pet Photography
The furry members of our family are so cherished, but if you've ever tried to invite Fido into a group photo, you know they have no clue how to cooperate. Be it you and your bestie or a whole cluster of kids, dogs and parents, Chelsea at Unleashed is armed with the treats, noises and patience to get shots that make even untrained dogs look like they understood the assignment. That pure love of a dog for its person or people is on display in these masterful portraits.
3. Kristin with an I
Time flies when you're raising a family. Put a pause on the most precious moments in Kristin's airy, organic style. As a motherhood photographer and newborn specialist, her specialty is classic portraits of expecting mothers, tender new babies and families in heirloom style. Reach out in the second trimester to ensure a session in the brief newborn window when your little peanut is prime for the camera, and three to six months in advance for family photos.
4. Meghan Marie Photography
Young at heart, Meghan is a child and baby whisperer who stages sessions in gorgeous natural settings or her studio in Catasauqua, and with adorable accessories for vibrant and vivid photos. From newborn and maternity to lifestyle and the crazy mess of the cake smash, Meghan's patience and skills get all your favorite people's personality to come through. You're going to want these bad boys enlarged and on the wall.
5. Jillian Paige Photography
Jillian believes no two family sessions should be alike. Before every session, she schedules a 30- to 60-minute phone call with her clients to talk about their family's routines and habits, interests and dynamics, and how/where they spend their time at home. By taking a photojournalistic approach to in-home sessions, Jillian's able to capture families naturally, doing what they love, in the spaces they connect with the most! Her shoots craft a unique experience that feels authentic and intentional, with a touch of artistic flair.
