About
My goal is to create a professional end product that will 1) meet *and hopefully* exceed your expectations, 2) capture the special moments in your life in high resolution and 3) bring a smile to your face [maybe even a tear or three]
I began photographing and filming events in 2013 as a side business but put it on hiatus to focus on my young family and career in 2017. Recently, with the kids being a little older and a supportive wife, I am able to dedicate more time and energy to this passion.

Hertzler was delightful. He listened to our needs and helped pose us in the arrangements that we requested. The photos are beautiful and just what we wanted. I totally recommend him for family portraits. He was a pleasure to work with.

Hertzler was available for a last minute large family photo shoot and we were so grateful he was able to capture our Poconos vacation. He was prompt and right on time and very friendly and professional. He handled all our photo requests with ease and the photos were great and his price is very reasonable. I would definitely recommend him!

We were looking for a photographer for just the church ceremony for our wedding. He was accommodating, responded quickly to any questions from us after the initial discussion, and unlike my brother in law who was told numerous times including by both my husband and I that all we needed him to do was sit there and record the ceremony in case the video call with my mother in law dropped with whom became very distracting during the ceremony pinging all over for photos. Mr. Hertzler seemed to disappear into the background unless he was having us pose for photos as any good photographer will. The photos themselves were absolutely beautiful. We couldn’t be happier and would hire him again for any event. Highly recommended.
Details: Religious event • 25 - 49 guests • Indoors • Physical proofs or prints • Album or photo book

Hertz was such an amazing professional to work with. He delivered all pictures as required and was even flexible enough to accommodate for a longer work time due to an issue with my catering so vet appreciated. We loved our Gender Reveal pictures and he knew what shots to take, when to take
Details: Couples portrait • Candid (captured in the moment) • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Home • My home, venue, etc.

FAQs

We can negotiate a price that all parties are satisfied with. Discounts are available.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
after the initial introduction, I want to get a feel for your personality and incorporate that in the videos.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
At first, I was consuming a lot of educational media about photography and eventually had a lot of hands-on training shooting a variety of events throughout the years.
