Tara Lerch Photography Capturing newborns and families with a lot in between. Based out of Central Pennsylvania. Hi there, I am Tara Lerch (your next photographer)!

My love for photography goes all the way back to when I was a little kid. I went from that pestering friend in school that photographed everything and everyone, to photography school in Massachusetts. After graduation I worked for photographers in Philadelphia, my local newspaper, and I became a food and commercial photographer; all while squeezing in family sessions whenever I could. Over the pas

t 16 years I have had the opportunity to grow my passion into a full time career. I really love photographing newborn babies, families and capturing those magical moments on your wedding day . Something about creating lasting friendships and photographing all the milestones makes my heart incredibly happy. Ultimately, I am a Mom, a wife, a sister and a daughter, I totally get what you are going through. My goal is not only create beautiful images and freeze time for you, but to create a fun experience and make you feel extremely comfortable! I know from personal experience that it can be stressful getting your family ready for photos. A newborn won't sleep, your child rubs their body up against the dirty car or you wake up with a weird blemish on your wedding day. Rest assured that will we will work together to make sure everyone is smiling during these photos and having fun!

Mr. Jack rocked this session which I am pretty sure was on the coldest day so far. You can't even tell he was shivering the whole time!

Agapeland Preschool...one of my favorite couple days of the year. I'm always exhausted, left wondering how these teachers do it everyday. However, I love laughing with each little character because that's what they are... characters! Oh, the things that come out of little ones mouths in the 5 minute time frame I am taking their photos.

Last year I bought this adorable tree farm backdrop and never used it. 🙃

This is a little last minute but I plan to hold a few minis this Saturday morning/ afternoon in the studio.

Be on the lookout for a link that will be posted tomorrow morning!

Tried something new this year with girls basketball.

I won't lie, after editing the first team I swore I would never use a green screen again. By the 10th team, I got a bit quicker. Lots of room for improvement with shadowing and I'm still torn on the background. However, I don't think they are half bad and I'm always happy to try something new.

Don't ask me what I did yesterday or even last week. However, I can distinctly remember meeting this girl in American Eagle as a baby for the first time and being memorized by her beautiful eyes. Here we are 17 years later and she is graduating. Man, I feel old! She is beautiful on the outside and even more on the inside.

I am not sure how it is been 5 years since this couples wedding but I am sure glad I got to meet their new addition!

Changing the studio over from my preschool photo set up to tree farm mini for this Saturday.

There was a point in my life where I could whip out a video in no time. I do not want to admit how long it took me to make this video and I wasn't even going to attempt to add music. However, I don't think it's to shabby!

What else is there to do at 10 AM on Saturday when it’s 93 degrees already?!

Sweet Estella making my heart happy with her sweet giggles and smiles!

I wrapped up the holiday season with capturing the sweetest engagement. Gabby and Jeremy had a hectic and long day. While their loved ones were transforming their backyard into a beautiful setting. Best wishes to this beautiful couple and thank you for allowing me to capture such a special moment. Shout out to SignGypsies Selinsgrove/Lewisburg for the cutest sign!
