At only 10 months old, sweet and adorable Evan is quite capable of outrunning both his parents already! What a busy toddlerhood they’re going to have with him, I think!
Sadly, his nose was also on the run–poor little guy woke up this morning with a summer cold, which kept his parents quite busy with the tissues during the session. Here’s to hoping he’s feeling much better soon!




Yeah, I know I have. As Miss Kaylee reminded me this morning, they’re by far one of my most challenging ages, quickly and swiftly losing interest in me. They’ve got an agenda all their own, and the legs to to take them wherever they want to go. Knock-knock jokes don’t keep them entertained, and songs get quickly boring. Often, they make me feel like the uncoolest adult in the world as I go on chase to photograph them, quickly discovering just how out of shape I am, and just how slowly my lens takes to focus.
Yet, despite all that, they remain one of my most favorite ages to photograph. It’s like suddenly at 2, God fills up these little ones with personality and charm, making it impossible to resist their unique “two-ness.”


…(no offense to you Elton John lovers), but can you feel the love?

You know those moments where you just get so completely overwhelmed by this amazing love for your child. Those moments where you feel like your heart just could not fit anymore love into it and it might just burst into a million little pieces if one single extra little drop of love would enter it. I think this may have been one of those moments, and I think little Ruby just knows it.
During a rainy, rainy week, Julia & Alan brought the sun out full force on a beautiful Friday afternoon for their wedding celebration–actually maybe they parted the clouds a bit too much. :) The day started off rainy, and then began to brighten once the rain ended. At noon, there was a thin layer of clouds covering the sky–absolutely perfect for outdoor photography, I thought to myself excitedly as I began to get my gear together and get ready for their wedding. By the time we met at three, though, there was full force sun, and beautiful puffy clouds that never really seemed to cover the sun–definitely not great photography weather, but amazing wedding weather, especially considering the wet afternoons we’ve had all week before and since. It’s just a guess, but I think they were truly feeling the power of their prayers for a dry wedding. :)
To a couple who’s obviously devoted to each other and deeply in love: Many, many thanks to both of you, and much love and congratulations as you begin your new life together!

But not for pictures–as much as I love shooting there. If you’re looking for some fun things to do with your kiddos today, the Skippack Summertyme Festival features pony rides, moon bounces, a magic show, games, yummy summer treats and much more! Come and visit the Jennifer Breton Photography tent, say hi, and enter for a chance for a cool $250 gift certificate, and also receive some summer session savings exclusive to people who stop by my tent.
The festival is today only, from 10-4. Give me a call at 610-223-9700 if you can’t find me.
And just in case you’re curious, walking is the standard mode of transportation around Skippack, and curiously, not skipping, as my 6 year old pointed out. :)
…if I told you there were tears and uncooperation a few minutes before this was captured:

Thankfully, the rest of our time together was tear-free and filled with happiness and smiles (especially because they drove all the way from Boston–well, to visit family, but still…)

Safe travels home, guys, and thanks again. :)

8 years old. Unbelievable.
There’s something very special about your first-born’s birthday: I often feel like it’s a little bit of a celebration for me and Joe, too. Maybe it’s because her birthday is just 4 days shy of the date of our wedding anniversary, but on her birthday, a little bit of the celebration I soak in just for me and Joe to honor the anniversary of us becoming parents.
Still. It’s crazy she’s 8.
My sweet Ryan. May all your dreams come true. Happy birthday.
xox.
…because one of my favorite little girls to photograph became a big sister a few days ago, and her baby sister takes to the camera just as amazingly as she does.
My warmest congratulations, guys! Welcome to the world, Sydney!

(J, I’ll retouch. Promise. ;)





PCS. Photographer’s Child Syndrome. My kids have it. Well, they’re sorta outgrowing it since I started pointing my lens more at clients and less at them. But I gotta admit that when this client, who is a Lancaster County photographer herself, called me and asked for family portraits, well, I was a bit worried that her kids would be afflicted with PCS as well. “Oh, they are!” she said and we giggled. Well, she giggled. I giggled along merely to be polite. ;)
Thankfully, the PCS went into remission this morning just in time for our session. And I was sure to grab lots of images of mom with her beautiful kiddos–after all, us photographers so rarely have pictures of ourselves with our own kids.
P.S. Does she look familiar? She’s also a news anchor/reporter on WGAL.
