Philadelphia Family, Child, Newborn and Senior Photographer Ryan Estes bio picture
  • Welcome to the blog of Ryan Estes Photography. I live and work in the greater Philadelphia area providing families, kids, babies and seniors with cutting-edge photography. Here you'll find the latest images, news, and bits of this and that. Come back often -- there's a lot happening, both in my life and in the lives of my clients.

    Often I'll post pictures I've taken for fun... whether they're shots of my daughter, trips we've taken, or simply interesting/fun/bizarre/crazy/cool stuff from everyday life. Why? Because photography is intensely personal... in your search for the right photographer, you should connect as well with the person as you do with the images. This is who I am... I hope you enjoy.

family portraits at the philadelphia zoo

I love, love, love fall and winter.  Give me a cool breeze, a warm fire, about 4 feet of snow on the ground and a good book and I’m a happy camper.

But when it comes to photographing children and families, I sure am missing warm October days like this one!  I met up with Eric, Angela, their son, and Eric’s father for an afternoon at the Philadelphia Zoo.  This is one of the chillest kids I’ve ever met.  Loved the camera, and everything else too.

 


chestnut hill family portraits | the “b” family

I have almost never seen a 1-year-old who smiles this easily.  I met her and her parents in Chestnut Hill on a sunny but rather chilly morning, but the cold didn’t stop her from being pretty much delighted with just about everything she saw!

 


easton family portraits | the “h” family

Just some favorites from a recent family shoot.  We took these in and around their family’s home, which I think often adds a whole extra dimension to family portraits.  (Don’t you love looking at pictures of places you’ve lived when you were a child?)  These kids were overflowing with personality and loved the camera!

What happens when your 3 year old eats a chocolate ice cream cone and plays with your photo booth app on your phone…

 


baby “b” | philadelphia newborn photographer

If you’re a long-time blog reader, you may remember Courtney & Blake from their wedding last year.  That was a great day, but it wasn’t the end of the story.  Skip ahead a year, and C&B have just welcomed their son into the world!

family pictures at hopewell furnace

Just a few favorites from an extended family session I shot last month… could we have these kinds of autumn colors all year long, please?

This family was a lot of fun… I love this shot below.  Perfect portrait?  Nah.  Worth keeping?  You bet.

 


doylestown engagement pictures | reghan + ed

Reghan & Ed have some of the best chemistry I’ve ever seen in my clients.  They were instantly at ease in front of the camera, are obviously in love, and weren’t afraid to show it.  We got together a month or so ago in Doylestown to take these pictures.  Enjoy, you two!
