I posted this to Facebook and just realized I forgot this poor blog (so neglected)! Those who got their photos taken at the Baby Loves Disco Philadelphia event this past Saturday (the 1th), you can find your photos here! Some emails are being returned undeliverable...I apologize if I could not read your handwriting :) http://sarahbloom.zenfolio.com/bldvalentine

Year in Review (how original) 2011, Welcome 2012
Happy New Year, friends!
2011 saw very little blogging from me here, but a lot more photography work! Most of that work was for publications so the photos can not be shared until they are printed. It's been a good year for me, building up more steady work slowly but surely. I somehow am still managing to make things work balancing this with my art endeavors and eking out a very meger living.
Some highlights of 2011 included traveling to Brooklyn, NY to photograph Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jennifer Egan
Oh, who am I kidding--that was probably THE highlight. :)
I had a wonderful experience shooting a three-day conference put on by the International Herbert Marcuse Society, where I met and marched with Anglea Davis!
I shot several creative happenings for the beautiful White Pines Productions
I did several new family shoots and one repeat customer.
I shot some art events during Homecoming Weekend for the Penn Gazette for my third year in a row.
I gained a new client with Penn Nursing Science and have already done several really interesting and fun shoots with them and am looking forward to more!
---
In 2012 I will be shooting a Bar Mitzvah in March, doing more work with Baby Loves Disco, and continuing to work with the Gazette and Penn Nursing. My goal is to find more university press work from one of the many other schools in my area in the hopes of having a few shoots every month to keep things solvent.
May your new year be full of love and peace, no matter what turmoils you may face. May your goals be reached. May you find surprises along the way. Be safe and be well.
Happy New Year. xx

Busy!
Just checking in. Been shooting tons, but can't share a lot of it here yet as they are shoots for publications (so I'll post once they are out). I also just finished shooting a three-day conference of The International Marcuse Society held at the University of Pennsylvania, where Angela Davis was the keynote speaker. An incredible, stimulating, and rewarding experience all around for me, and I can't wait to share some of the highlights with you!
Meanwhile, my husband and I were in England recently to visit his family and I thought I'd share some of my favorites, as well as some favorites from a day of apple picking with dear friends. :)

Beach Daze
Was at the beach a few times this summer, sometimes in a professional capacity, sometimes as friends, sometimes both. Each time it was fun and I got some great photos. :)
Here's a few shots for us to hold onto summer as we head into fall!
I wanted to eat this baby!
Sometimes those accidental shots are still awesome...
I hope you've all had a wonderful summer and enjoy these last couple of weeks of late light and warm days. x
