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!

Weekend Sneak Peek

This weekend was one of the best by far! I photographed Anna and Micah's gorgeous Charlottesville wedding on Saturday and wrapped up my 2009 wedding season! The fabulous Vida Carson drove down with me to second shoot and the 5 hour trip from Philadelphia to Charlottesville seemed to fly by! :) Here is one little sneak peek picture from Saturday! I'm loving the autumn colors!


On Sunday afternoon, after returning from Virginia, I photographed Lauren and Michael's engagement session in Annapolis. I'll be photographing their wedding in early April and (especially after their amazing photoshoot) I am extremely excited! They are so happy together, and it shines through in every single image. Here is a sneak peek from their session on Sunday as well!


Stay tuned for more pictures from these two amazing couples later on in the week! :) I've been incredibly busy lately so if you are waiting for images, just hang tight! I sent out one shipment of discs this afternoon and will start editing again after my midterms conclude on Thursday. You all are the best and I appreciate your constant support!

Stephanie & Jake's Engagement Session

Stephanie & Jake make a wonderful couple. They were incredibly easy to photograph, always laughing and smiling. Quickly into the session, I found out that Jake is Penn alum. Such a fun coincidence! They are getting married in Georgia & after hearing just a few of the details - I have no doubt that it will be a beautiful wedding! Here are some of my favorites from the afternoon.

My new favorite gate! :)



I told Stephanie that every time she looks at Jake, she lights up. It's so true. They are perfect together!





When I saw her ring my jaw nearly dropped! Gorgeous! :)
