Welcome to my blog! My name is Natalie Franke and I'm a wedding photojournalist and portrait photographer in the Philadelphia, Baltimore, & DC metro areas!

I specialize in capturing candid moments as they unfold and finding real emotion in each image that I produce.

I love my job & feel so blessed for all of the incredible friendships that I have gained through photography. I'm happy that you've come across my little piece of the universe! Take off your coat & stay a while!

Lunch & Learn

The Lunch & Learn went off without a hitch on Sunday and I had a blast with nine other photographers from the area! We walked around Annapolis, photographed each other, & had a delicious lunch. Here are a few shots from the day! :)


And what's a photo shoot without some indoor practice at YoFiore!
Thanks to Vida Carson for capturing this shot of me teaching. She drove down from Philly to help me out!

While Kylie was rocking her inner model - I stole her D90 and played with the HD video! It's amazing!
I also tried to show the girls a few ways to pose senior models. Taken by Kristen Kibby.

I absolutely loved being able to share tips & tricks with photographers who are just getting started. All of the girls were eager to learn and fun to spend the day with! Thank you so much for your enthusiasm and kindness! :) Please stay in touch!

All the best,
Natalie Franke
