Make Something
Get crafty! Check out Pinterest if you need ideas or tutorials. There are so many ideas out there, and they don’t have to be pricey or difficult! This sweet mama made costumes for her kiddos when they wanted to be a marshmallow and an owl!

I am Angie, a wife and mama to two sweet little boys! I’m a portrait photographer in Lancaster county capturing the journey to and through motherhood. I believe that women look the most gorgeous when pregnant and I want them to feel the same way about themselves. My goal for each maternity session is for mamas to realize just how beautiful they are. I also enjoy capturing little ones while they are still little. All the details of newborns, from the tiny toes to the milk bumps on their nose, are my absolute favorite!
