But also, how has it been 18 years? Here are a few things I’ve learned along the way and a few favorites from our whirlwind of a May so far.

If it’s been a while since your institution updated the photos on your website, you’re not alone. Time gets away from us when we aren’t paying attention and pretty quickly your ‘new lifestyle photos’ are 3 years old. The faces on your site may have long since graduated, and some other cringe fashion trend from your youth is making a comeback. But don’t stress, one of the easiest (and most impactful) ways to breathe new life into your website and online presence is by updating your branding photos.

Before we let Women’s History Month slip away, we wanted to share our recent collaboration with Lasalle University during their 2025 Women in Leadership Award Luncheon.

Lasalle’s Women in Leadership Award Luncheon celebrates the achievements of exceptional women who have made significant impacts in leadership roles. The event highlights their contributions to various fields and provides a platform for inspiration and networking. And this year, it just happened to fall on International Women’s Day!

Sometimes it feels like we are drowning in a sea of perfectly curated content where every Instagram feed looks like a magazine spread, every LinkedIn post feels like it went through three rounds of PR approvals, and you know as well as I do, we're all getting a little numb to it. This is exactly why candid event photography is one of my favorite things. True candid images should become your best friend when it comes to marketing your next corporate event.

This fall, I had the opportunity to travel to Mississippi for a two-day shoot at Alcorn State University. The first day we had beautiful, sunny fall weather, while the second brought an overcast, foggy atmosphere. Spending two full days on location provided a wonderful variety of weather and backdrops, resulting in a diverse collection of outdoor photos. While on campus there was no shortage of programs to document. We hopped from the business school, to the tennis courts, agricultural courses in the chicken coop and radio & television hands-on-experience on set. It was a great experience to travel outside of my usual stomping grounds and challenge myself in a fresh setting.

Widener’s Homecoming weekend had it all…Tailgate Village and Wild Zone, Flag and Wreath Laying Ceremony, Alumni Reunions, Statue Unveilings, the Homecoming Court Reception, a traditional Broom Drill, and finally, of course, the Homecoming Football Game. The schedule was jam packed and we were thanking the weather gods for a beautiful weekend to be running from event to event. As always, the MKP team made it possible to be everywhere at once!

Traditions build a school and its legacy. Mount Saint Joseph Academy has its fair share of traditions. From Alumnae Induction, to Commencement, Freshmen Fest and the Golden Girls Luncheon (I’d like an invite to that please); they are always recognizing and celebrating their past and current students and I am here for it.
