Award-Winning Philadelphia Family Photographer – Ivory Tree Portraits Wins Seven Important Awards in 2025

Jul 7, 2025

Ivory Tree Portraits named Award-Winning Philadelphia Family Photographer and Award-Winning Bucks County Family Photographer.

Another year, another award-winning Philadelphia family photographer AND award-winning Bucks County family photographer award season! Kinda like Moira Rose from Schitt’s Creek (if you’ve never seen the show, you are totally missing out), My Favorite Season is Award Season! All kidding aside, it’s such an honor to win so many awards and to win them year after year. We do not take them lightly. The entire team works tirelessness all year and for me it’s a time to celebrate all of their hard work!

This year we won 7 different awards from 7 different companies honoring the work we do with Newborn and Family photography in Philadelphia, Bucks County and on the Main Line.

The Awards We Win – Award-Winning Philadelphia Family Photographer:

The Community That Votes for Award-Winning Philadelphia Family Photographer

What I love about most of these awards is that it’s the community that votes. That’s incredibly important because it means the Philadelphia, Main Line an Bucks County Communities believe in us, our mission, our values, our artistry, our experience and what we give back to the community.

As a studio, we believe deeply in supporting the community that supports us. We donate to, almost any, silent auction, school auction, sports or theater group activity that asks. It’s absolutely our way of supporting all of the activities that help shape the kids of our community and help them create self-confidence!

We also create three charity events throughout the year that support the local community. This year we have partnered with the ASPCA in support of all of our furry family members. The Kin Wellness Centre, this was in support of all those who are affected by cancer within our community. And Philadelphia Family Pride, supporting the LGBTQ+ families within our area.

What We Win as an Award-Winning Philadelphia Family Photographer

We win for all sorts of things – for our work with kids, for our studio, for our experience, for our imagery, for our work within the community.

Some of the awards are specific, best studio. This is incredibly special because I created this business not as a photographer (because I can’t shoot a camera) but as a busy mom. I created a studio knowing that if I prepared my toddlers (at the time) and husband for a session, no way could I reschedule.

For me, personally, I’d get all the outfits ready (including shoes), the hair cuts, my nails done, and take a day off of work. No way was it going to work for me if it rained that day and my session needed to be rescheduled or the photographer had something else come up. I know the effort it takes to prepare for a session, so our studio is created to make annual family portraits easy enough to do them, annually. Discover more.

Some of the awards we win are for our work with kids. I always say, you can be the most amazing photographer but it doesn’t mean you know how to work with kids. Similar to how teachers learn classroom management we teach our team studio management. How to create a fun, safe and relaxing experience. It allows mom to relax and in turn, the kids to relax. It allows them to show up as themselves. It also means, we can guarantee every session, we won’t stop until we get the images out clients want. Discover more.

Some of the awards are for our Luxe feel. I felt it critical that when creating the studio experience that everyone feel taken care of. Our luxe feel is from the timeless feel of our images. It’s intentional that we create images that are timeless so you love them as much in ten, twenty, even thirty years as you do today. It’s also because we create an easy experience.

The mental load of motherhood is hard, we are here to make it just a little bit easier. And our products are luxe. They are curated and sourced based on interior design trends. We follow the trends so you don’t have to. Our backgrounds, products and collections are designed to fit seamlessly into your life and home. Discover more.
