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!

Birthday Portrait Session

I did a portrait session yesterday for a client's birthday. Her and her best friend got their portraits done together for fun & they are turning out beautifully! =) These girls were so much fun to photograph. They jumped right in the leaves, fell off of a tree swing, and climbed on a boat all for the perfect shot. It was such a blast!

 I really love this weather. A little but not too chilly, leaves on the ground. I am getting more and more excited for some upcoming sessions this week! I still have slots available if you are interested in booking a session during the Thanksgiving Break. Just send me an email & we'll see what we can work out. Here are a few of the shots from yesterday, enjoy!

Something to Brighten Up Your Day!

As the rain pours down outside my dorm room, I wanted to post something cheerful! Below is a picture I took over the weekend of the butterfly bush in my backyard. They are calling for a few snow flakes to fall in the showers tomorrow morning (snow! already?) so I'll have to remember to ditch the flip flops & keep an eye out for the last remaining flowers of summer. Haha.


I hope everyone is having a wonderful day! Keep your eye out for the website coming up this weekend.. It's going to be great! =)

New Website!

Last night, after helping to design a new website for a local lacrosse organization, my entire photography web page was accidentally deleted. After scrambling and freaking out for an hour - I realized that this would be the perfect opportunity to design a new website exactly the way I want it! =)

With that said, I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. The new website should be up and ready to view by Friday! Stay posted for updates and all of the information as it becomes available! =) I wish you all the best & happy fall!




Yours Truly,
Natalie Franke

My New Blog!

The past month has been incredibly busy for me! My laptop crashed a few weeks ago, and I lost just about everything! It was horrible. Fortunately for all of you, the crash pushed me towards purchasing a new iMac with Photoshop CS3! This means quicker processing, better image conversions, and more expansion as a whole! (So exciting! Yay!) My goal with this new blog is to post more often with more pictures - check back frequently!
