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.

Casting Call!

I am in need of couple newborn girls to help me with some new ideas that I want to try out. If you know anyone who is pregnant (with a girl) and due in the next month or so, please send them my way! Here are the details:

*Participants will receive the session for free, and 5 free 8×10′s of their choice.

*However, this is not a typical infant session, and will not include a full range of images. I will only be focusing on specific poses.

*This session is for the baby only (and in some cases mom or dad). We would not be doing any family/sibling shots.

*The session must be done before the baby is 2 weeks old, so mom needs to contact me while she is still pregnant.

*The session will be done in my home studio in Akron, and will take approximately 2 hours.

*All images have the potential to be used in marketing or promotional material for CB Portraits.

I will only be able to take the first couple mommies who contact me, so act fast! Email me at bonnie@cbportraits.com. Feel free to pass this information on to your friends. Thanks!

And here’s a picture of an adorable bundle of sweetness. Doesn’t it just make you want to scoop her up and kiss her all over!
