Hi, i’m tawanda!
I am a hybrid family photographer based in Hamburg PA + Beyond. I specialize in film + digital photojournalistic photography that is naturally pleasing to the eye with a touch of pop.
As a parent of three children myself, I have become a true master at finding joy in chaos, especially when photographing families. Having experienced firsthand how children interact with the world, I am all too familiar with their playful energy, unpredictable moods, and boundless curiosity. This understanding helps me create an enjoyable atmosphere during your sessions, enabling them to be themselves and let their personalities shine. I know the right moments to capture, the silly faces that bring laughter, and the soft gestures that make hearts melt. My experience as a parent not only enhances my ability to connect with families but also allows me to anticipate their needs and offer tricks to help children relax and feel comfortable in front of the camera. So, whether it's capturing a sweet sibling bond or freezing a fleeting moment of childhood, I am well-equipped to preserve those beautiful memories that families will cherish for a lifetime.

Kind words
I’m so glad we did a Beauty in the Ordinary session with Tawanda. She did a beautiful job at capturing us in our natural rhythms and I’ll treasure these heirloom pictures always! She put all of us at ease (I was a little nervous about doing my homeschool day with someone watching) but it wasn’t awkward at all and she did great with my girls. I highly recommend!
INvested heirlooms
Investing in photos means investing in heirlooms that will be passed down through generations. These photographs will become treasured family artifacts, evoking nostalgia and fond memories for your children and grandchildren. Imagine the joy on their faces as they flip through the pages of a family album, connecting with their roots and feeling an immense sense of belonging.
