  • The Kemmerer Family | Berks County PA Film Photographer

    Film photography is something that many people are not used to seeing anymore.  I love that I can bring the magic of film back to my clients.  It’s truly an art form that was somewhat lost, but has so much beauty.  The way light is captured, colors are displayed, and the wide dynamic range make it the perfect way to capture images. I met with the Kemmerer family a couple weeks ago, and we had an amazing session.  The sunlight was perfect, the temperature was mild, and the love between family members was evident.  Here are some favorites from this dreamy film session!   Fuji400h, Canon 1v

  • The Rhein Family | Berks County PA Film Photographer

    I photographed the Rhein family on film a few weeks ago, and they were such troopers in the cold and wind!  Thankfully, we still had some pretty sunlight to fill our images with some warmth.  I love all of the photos from their session.  Here are a few favorites!   Portra400 Film, Canon 1v

  • Moyer Family | Film Session | Katie Ballantine Photography

    I am often asked why I love to shoot film so much over digital.  For me, film is an art that cannot be replicated using a digital camera.  The tones, the dynamic range, the softness, and the 3-D effect are all so magical.  I choose which film I use for a session based on the color profile I want in my finished art.  For golden, warm tones, I use my Kodak Portra film… for light and airy pastel tones, I choose my Fuji film. The Moyer family’s session was in a field and on the beach, and film captured their images so perfectly.  The light and color tones are so…

  • Lukose Family | Berks County PA Family Photographer

    This sweet family lives across the street from my family, and we’ve become wonderful friends.  Their kids and my kids play together almost every day, and I value their friendship so much.  I love the way this session turned out and how you can feel the love between all of them.
