CB Portraits – Lancaster Portrait Photographer

Newborn and child photography in Lancaster PA

Hi! Thanks so much for taking the time to visit my blog and check out my work!

My name is Bonnie Ingraham – and I am a photographer in Lancaster County, PA. I’m a wife to a great guy, and a mom of three beautiful kids ages 8, 5, & 2 years. I only take on a limited number of sessions each month because I want work part-time in order to stay home with my kids, and to ensure that I can give each client the individual time necessary for a great custom portrait experience.

Something else about me...I like variety. I get bored easily and I don't like to do the same thing twice. :) This is true with my portrait sessions as well. Each session is different from the last. I am always looking for new props, and ideas to add a different level of creativity to my sessions.

I also love to do things with my hands. It’s something I’ve always enjoyed doing. My most recent passion has been knitting. I taught myself on a long vacation drive a couple years ago, and I think I’m just a little bit obsessed! I love finding new and unique yarns to knit as props for my newborn sessions!

I do newborn and baby sessions at my home studio in Akron. For everything else, I am an on-location photographer – which means I want to capture people in an environment that is fun and comfortable for them. No studios where you have to pose perfectly and smile blankly into a camera. My passion in photography is to capture people as they experience joy, wonder, love, and intimate connections with each other. I love the challenge of being invited into my client’s world – and using photography to capture who they are as an individual and a family member.

I’d love for you to look around my blog and website (www.cbportraits.com) to see if my style fits what you are looking for. Please contact me if you are interested or if you have any questions.

Senior Pictures * Akron PA Senior Photographer

Meet Masa and Tom, two handsome young men I photographed recently. They are here in the United States with a program called Home Life. Both are seniors at a local school. This session was by far my quickest one ever. These two guys were on a serious time crunch to get their senior pictures done and into their school. So, between their busy schedules and my schedule – we finally found a 45 minute chunk of time to do their pictures in.

On a side note, I do offer a Senior Buddy Portrait Session. This is when two friends have their senior session at the same time, in the same location. Each senior gets a $25 discount off their session fee. It’s a great option for seniors since I usually have them bring a friend along anyway – it helps them relax and have more fun. The poses are varied so each senior gets a unique set of images.
