SANTA POP IN SIGN UP IS LIVE! 🎄🎄
Link in comments for booking. Please note, this booking is strictly Santa. I will have another date in November for families to come for my other Holiday backdrops.

I have 3 dates with Santa Skip this year, featuring this adorable wrapping paper station room.

🌟Saturday, Nov. 14th, 2026 @ 1pm to 5pm
🌟Sunday, Nov. 29th, 2026 @ 1pm to 4pm
🌟Monday, Dec. 14th, 2026 @ 4pm to 7pm

I anticipate the 14th to sell out first, so if you want to get your photos early to use for cards, don't wait to sign up! 🎅

As a reminder... My Pop In sessions are 5 minutes in time. This is a quick meet and greet with Santa, where I will guide your child through various prompts to get some fantastic photos.

Your child will have time to discuss wish lists with Santa, and we also have time to include Mom + Dad as well!

No money is exchanged the day of the session. Simply sign up, come to my studio at your time slot, and receive a gallery to choose from shortly after your session. At this time photos are selected and payment is received.

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out to me!

My schedule is almost at capacity, and once I am full I can't take any additional sessions for my own sanity. 🤣

I have a few mini session spots left at the Capitol Building in Harrisburg on October 24th. I also have 2 weekday mini sessions left at Fort Hunter the week of October 18th.

Additionally, I have a few of these model call spots left (pictured) at just $100 in October! I have really enjoyed working out all the details of using an off camera flash outdoors and am SO Thankful for all the clients who showed up and let me experiment.

You will never regret taking the time to get family photos taken! 🍂✨

This Momma even threw outfits together with things they already had just a few days before their session. Goes to show that family photos don't have to be stressful or hard to plan.

The session took just a few minutes where I guided the family through posing, and asked them if they had any ideas.

The kiddos had a few ideas of their own and I loved being able to capture their ideas as well! One day I hope they look back on the photos and cherish the memory of this time in their childhood. 💕

If you are thinking about Fall photos, and haven't booked yet I still have some limited availability! https://danacarvellphotography.pixieset.com/booking/

Your children's school pictures just got a glow up! 🌟🌟
OCTOBER 3rd 10am-11am
OCTOBER 12th (Columbus Day Holiday) 10am-11am
https://danacarvellphotography.pixieset.com/booking/back-to-school-pop-in

You may have seen some of the recent school photography drama making its way around the internet… the big corporations and lists and whatnot.....

And while I do shy away from anything political/controversial here I have heard many clients asking for other options and I'd absolutely love to provide that for you!

My Back to School Pop In features two beautiful setups:

🍂 a soft sage backdrop for the typical headshot

🍂 a whimsical "Forest School" backdrop — perfect for a little something special! I'm accessorizing this one with a little vintage desk, apples, and vintage looking books. (samples coming soon)

Shortly after your session you will receive a gallery of photos to choose from. Photos are $20 each and delivered via digital download.

This gorgeous family helped me at my model call yesterday!

I love this simple vibe, and it is exactly what I was going for. 💕

As a photographer I love being creative. I'll chase your children through a field or jump in the ocean if needed.

At the same time, I feel there's a place for a super simple and clean family portrait. The ones where you are just looking at the camera and gently posing.

I had such an overwhelming response, that I added a few dates in October on weeknights. I sold out of nearly every single time I had posted previously and wanted to give another chance to grab this awesome deal!

$100 for 10 photos. Follow the booking link if you'd like to grab a spot!

✨ Your Baby’s First Photos — Without the Stress ✨

Bringing a newborn into the world is a beautiful, exhausting, and completely overwhelming experience. I understand because I've done it 6 times.

Yes, I am that kind of crazy. 🤣

One thing I know as a newborn photographer, is what it takes just to GET TO THE SESSION. Leaving the house with a newborn is a whole task.

But... I promise once you arrive your work is done! I take care of every single detail of your session from there .My goal is to keep things as simple and smooth as possible for my clients because I simply "get it."

📸 Newborn sessions are best reserved during pregnancy. My Fall is JAM PACKED. If you'd like a newborn session soon, I encourage you to reach out sooner rather than later because my schedule is really tight. 💕

Looking forward to all of my Fall babies!

I may be a little biased but ..... JUST LOOK! 🥰🥰😍😍

Putting a feeler out for outdoor Holiday sessions with this adorable guy. Location is in Carsonville, PA. It is a short drive but the landscape is absolutely stunning and it is such a fun experience!

Would anyone be interested in something like this?

Mondays are better with cake!

If your little one is having a BIG birthday soon, a cake smash session is the perfect way to celebrate (and make a fun mess)!

And the best part? I PROVIDE EVERYTHING! 🙌

🎂 The cake
🎈 The matching balloons
✨ The backdrops & props
📸 And, of course, the photography!

If you are interested in a cake smash session, I'd love to tell you all about the whole process!

I have added one more Fall Mini Session location in October for peak foliage and that is at the Capitol Building in Harrisburg! 🍂

The Capitol Building gives us a mix of beautiful architectural elements and foliage, so the best of both worlds.

Additionally, since my model call sessions were SO popular, I added two more week day options with a few spots. Please note, I will be testing new lighting techniques and lenses at these sessions, hence the discount.

I had a few people reach out regarding what to wear for the model call mini sessions, and believe me... I'm wondering too! 🤣

So I asked ChatGPT and look at all the beautiful and cohesive options. Who knew!?
