Hamburg, New York
Where Yesterday
Today
Children and family photography that bridges generations — captured in film-inspired portraits, blended with your family's history, and preserved in heirloom keepsakes that last lifetimes.
The Glitches in Time Experience
Past & Present, Together
A "glitch in time" is that feeling when you look at your child and see your own childhood staring back. I make that visible.
Generational Sessions
I photograph multiple generations together — grandparents, parents, children — creating portraits that tell a whole family's story in a single frame.
Photo Blending
Bring me your old family photos. I'll artistically blend them with your new portraits — creating one image that bridges decades and generations.
Digital Heirloom Drive
Every image from your session — fully edited and delivered on a portable hard drive you keep forever. No expiring gallery links. No cloud subscriptions. Just your memories, in your hands.

Yours to Keep Forever
Every Image. On a Drive.
When your gallery expires, your memories shouldn't. With the Glitches in Time Experience, I hand you a portable hard drive with every edited image from your session — full resolution, fully yours, no subscription required.
Plug it in ten years from now. They'll still be there.

About Shylia
10 years. 4 kids. One camera.
I'm Shylia Denning — a mom of four based in Hamburg, New York. I've been photographing families for ten years, and I built the "Glitches in Time" concept because I kept noticing the same thing: clients would point at their kid and see their own childhood staring back. I wanted to make that visible.
