A fresh approach to studio photography in a cozy, sun-filled space where tender, heartfelt moments are captured to treasure for generations to come

offerings

Studio Illume is a natural light studio located in beautiful Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Though small but mighty at nearly 500 square foot, this studio is drenched in light and is the absolute perfect space to capture some of the sweetest moments from maternity and newborn sessions and so many other milestones!

All portrait sessions photographed in the studio take a lifestyle approach, meaning less "Look at the camera!" prompts and more interactive, genuine, real-life moments captured. Because my emphasis is on capturing the sweet smiles, belly laughs, tender snuggles, and real connection of the people in front of my camera, you won't find any additional cheesy props or distracting backdrops. Instead, you'll find a bright white space and neutral colored backdrops, perfect for making sure the moments I am capturing remain the sole focus of each photograph.

The Studio Illume space is perfect for capturing maternity portraits, lifestyle newborn sessions, childhood milestone sessions, professional branding headshots, family portraits, and "mama and me" sessions.

THE STUDIO SPACE

Oftentimes, figuring out what you are going to wear can be an incredibly stressful part of scheduling a photo session. Not only finding a dress you love, but finding a dress that is within budget and one you know will photograph beautifully can sometimes feel like finding a needle in a haystack. And let's be honest, mamas, who has the time for all that? 

Booking a portrait session in Studio Illume gives you access to a curated selection of *dozens* of beautiful dresses for mama and even outfits for babies and toddlers (up to size 3T). Most dresses are both maternity and non-maternity friendly and are available in a variety of styles and sizes. The dresses within the Studio Illume Client Closet are timeless, neutral colored, with delicate florals-galore, and are sure to photograph beautifully. Some of our featured dress brands include Nothing Fits But, Free People, Worth Collective, Baltic Born, & dozens more.

The 70+ dresses in the curated Client Closet range from a size XS to a size XXL - you are sure to find something you absolutely love and feel completely beautiful in (at no extra cost to you!)
