Research continuously shows that visuals have a big influence on decision-making online. Up to 75% of users judge a company’s credibility based on website design and photos before even reading your content.

Here’s the part that matters even more: People remember only 10% of information three days after reading it. Add a photo? Recollection improves by 65%.

I got to work with Princeton's School of Public and International Affairs (SPIA) for the first time this year. I'm always blown away by the intelligent and thoughtful people I get to meet in this line of work – SPIA is a perfect example of a community where curiosity, rigor, and genuine commitment to public service come together in a way that’s both inspiring and energizing.

This fall, I had the chance to visit Merion Mercy Academy again, and it was such a great day on campus. The goal for this shoot was to refresh their photo library with a mix of classroom candids and lifestyle shots featuring students. We had a solid plan going in, but left plenty of room to move things around and capture moments as they naturally unfolded.

As 2025 wraps up, I’ve been sitting with a lot of gratitude and reflection. Every year teaches me something new, but this one felt especially defining. Not louder. Not busier. Just clearer.

This year wasn’t about chasing more. It was about refining what already matters: how I work, who I work with, and why I do what I do in the first place.

Here are a few of the biggest shifts that shaped 2025.

If you know one thing about me, you know I am a BIG fan of dogs. I am partial to boxers (I’ve had five), but any dog is a good dog in my book. When North Penn Animal Hospital was working on a new website and updated brand and called ME to update their photos, I was unbelievably excited — I don’t think I’ve ever answered an email faster. Offer me the chance to spend the day with the team in Lansdale and pet every dog I could find?? Dreams do come true.

When your organization launches a brand-new event, capturing the right visuals from day one is key to building momentum for future marketing campaigns. Recently, we had the opportunity to photograph EW Community Day, an event designed to bring the community together for a day of fun, learning, and engagement. Besides documenting the day, the goal was to create a library of marketing ready images that could be used to promote future events and show the value of attending future events.

The campus of Holy Family University came alive as the institution officially launched its new campaign, “Bold Vision: Empowering Futures. Transforming Lives.

As you plan your 2026 marketing budget and plans, you’ve probably already added the usual line items: social media ads, website updates, email campaigns, print advertisements, the list goes on. One item that often gets overlooked is professional photography.

Whether you’re a small business owner, nonprofit, or educational institution, investing in high-quality photography is all about creating connection and credibility that drives actual results.

Widener University Homecoming weekend is always a good time! Last year we had picture perfect weather, so we were due for a little drizzle this year (while inconvenient for the event, made for some memorable photos)! This year, MKP team member, Theresa, ran with the show and did an amazing job capturing every event across campus, both big and small. I’m so thankful for the incredible team I’ve assembled over the years. Their professionalism makes sure every client experiences the same high-quality photography we’re known for.
