Welcome to my blog - it's here that I share some of my most recent work - be sure to check back often!! Kathleen Chapman Photography specializes in child and family photography in the North Country NY counties of Franklin and St.Lawrence in locations such as St. Regis Falls, Brushton, Malone, Massena and Potsdam. I offer studio and on location sessions designed to meet your creative vision!!
Another month has just flown by!! I love the contrast this month of North Country snow vs. Bermuda beach pictures!! We had a great trip to Bermuda - so many great memories with Beck and Rick, delicious food and the most amazing water I've ever seen - we can't wait to go back!!

I've challenged myself to a 2020 366 project. A picture for each day of the year to document our journey through the 1st year of this new decade!!
During January I loved taking pictures of our Christmas tree, snow, precious grandkids, tried out my new Mavic Mini drone, enjoyed decorating my office with some new furniture, took the winter picture of our new season series, began packing for Bermuda, said goodbye to my Canon camera and switched to Sony and celebrated Myla turning 5 - it was a great month!!
