Crickett Julius lost her battle with breast cancer in 2006, and every year her friends, family, and many others inspired by her story come together to celebrate her life and legacy. A huge thank you to all who donated to the silent auction, and to our friend Matt Cleveland, Occasions DJ, for providing the music and MC’ing the event!

To learn more about donating to Crickett’s charity please contact Bonnie Julius: bljulius@comcast.net

Here are the images from the event- looking forward to next year!!

Hundreds of people gathered on Beaver Street to sample art, food, music, and culture. Downtown Inc. partnered with Bring on Play to bring a wonderful family friendly event to Downtown. Attendees enjoyed a bouncy house, face painting, a magician, and even pics with the Easter bunny himself (by Camera Center of York).  A huge thank you to everyone who participated!

Here are some of our favorite shots from the night. Enjoy!

They are a band determined to bring us back to a more simple time, with awesome 80’s music and authentic 80’s attire (complete with Member’s Only jackets…)

Thanks to Kenny and John for throwing such an incredible event! Check out some pics from the show- you can pretend you were there singing along with us to “Time after time” and other 80’s faves.

If you miss the 80’s as much as we do- come on out the the Big 80’s Bash tonight at The Roosevelt Tavern from 10:00pm-1:00am- and dress up in your best acid wash jeans and Blondie t-shirts!

In fact we get to travel to Ireland for work almost every year (and we always throw in a little play as well!:) So to celebrate we’d like to share a few images that we captured on our last trip to Ireland with the good people of York cause remember, EVERYONE is Irish on St. Paddy’s!

If you would like to purchase any of the prints feel free to contact us through Living York and have a pint of Guinness for us!

The Wagner family has been such a huge blessing to us, and after shooting MaCall’s sister Mallori’s wedding, MaCall’s wedding, and now her little girl, we are so blessed to have captured so many important moments in their lives. Here are some of our favorite images….We love you guys!

York Hospital is always such a pleasure to work with, the facility is beautiful, and the staff is wonderful. We are there often for births, as well as our charity work for NILMDTS . Someday, we look forward to having our own little one there!

Mayor and Sam Brenner gave the final countdown as we watched the impressive tree light up the night! If you didn’t get a chance to make it downtown, you can see the video below, as well as some fun images of the performances.
We also were able to squeeze in a Christmas card session with the Yacoviello family. Rob is an incredible opera singer that we hope to see performing in York very soon (fingers crossed!).
Happy Holidays!

There were singers, comedians, rappers, and group skits. Everyone did a fantastic job, and we can’t wait for the Christmas program! To learn more about Logos Academy, visit logosyork.org and check back for our piece on this phenomenal school that is committed to making a difference in York.

A short 5 minute drive from the city is Browns Orchard where you can pick your own pumpkins and apples! We had a great time photographing the Bailey family as their two beautiful little girls, Addie and Mackenzie picked out their Halloween pumpkins. But if you’re looking for your own pumpkin to carve you better hurry because I’m pretty sure they picked the best ones! (OK, maybe there are  a couple good ones left..)

Visit Browns at  www.brownsorchards.com for more info.

By the way, it’s not too late to book a family shoot in time for the holiday season!

**Forgot to mention, some of you may recognize Addie, the little girl in the pics. Not only is she the daughter of Principal Warren Bailey (the principle at Logos Academy) but if you’ve ever seen the Browns Market commercial, Addie’s the little girl chomping on an apple at the end! Celebrity!
