A Special Thank You.

In Lititz, inspiration is everywhere – in the beauty or our landscape and in the vibrancy of our downtown. It’s no surprise, then, that we’re home to world class artists, photographers and musicians. Here you’re linked to the folks who created the images that bring this site to life. Their art adds depth and color to our community and for that we’re forever grateful.

Photographer Ava Ren

About Ava

Most of the beautiful images you’ll find gracing the pages of our site were captured by Lititz photographer, Ava Ren. Ava has been capturing the people and places of the Susquehanna Valley for 16 years. Growing up in the heart of Amish country, she quickly grew an affinity for nature and that affinity is what eventually evolved into her career. Seeking knowledge, adventure, and beauty, Ava moved to Massachusetts in 2009 after years of self-improvement, to attend Hallmark Institute of Photography.

She graduated the real-world based, accelerated program a year later, but her journey to learn and explore the world continues to this day. Ava’s love for hiking feeds her need for exploration. Whether it’s hiking into the unknown with her camera and equipment to uncover beautiful scenery or capturing a new family’s first photos; Ava feels at home.
