Bluebird & Bear Photography Co. is a lifestyle photography business based in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, serving families, couples, and individuals across Central PA and beyond. Founded by Veronika Smith—a wife and mother of two boys—the business was born out of a love for capturing both the natural, unscripted beauty of candid moments and the timeless elegance of posed portraits.
At Bluebird & Bear Photography, the focus is on connection, authenticity, and storytelling—blending gentle guidance with a relaxed atmosphere so clients enjoy the best of both worlds. Veronika specializes in photographing families, children, couples, maternity, newborns, seniors, and creative lifestyle sessions.
Each session is designed to feel comfortable and fun, with a balance of beautifully posed portraits and candid shots that reflect real personalities and emotions.
The Story Behind the Name
The name Bluebird & Bear holds personal meaning, inspired by Veronika’s own children—her greatest muses and the reason she first picked up a camera. That personal connection extends into her work with clients, as she treats each family and couple as if they were her own, pouring heart, patience, and creativity into every session.

What Sets Bluebird & Bear Apart
What sets Bluebird & Bear apart is not just the imagery, but the experience. Veronika brings warmth, humor, and patience to every session, helping clients feel comfortable in front of the camera. She understands that children may run wild, couples may feel camera-shy, and families may want both “smile at the camera” portraits and natural storytelling shots.
Her philosophy: you don’t have to choose—you can have both. Each gallery is carefully curated and hand-edited with consistency and attention to detail, ensuring that every final image is a piece of art.

At the heart of it all is a simple mission: to preserve memories in a way that feels both polished and personal, posed and natural. Because one day, the little moments—the way your child giggled, the way your partner looked at you, the way your family came together—will mean everything. And those are the moments Bluebird & Bear Photography Co. strives to capture, frame, and preserve forever.
