If you saw the blog last week, then this family might look familiar! We captured their beach family photos on their boat and then we had another session together. I love that they couldn’t totally decide between the type of family photos they wanted, so we just went for it and had two sessions together! […]

When this beautiful mama reached out to me, she started with, “I have this crazy idea…”  and right away, I knew this session was going to be unique and so much fun. Her crazy idea turned out to be a documentary style family portrait session on the family’s boat. I have to admit, it wasn’t […]

When clients ask me what to wear for their family or maternity portraits, one of my first suggestions is always a flowy dress for mom. Dresses with flowy skirts and fabrics photograph really well – and everyone looks amazing in them! These dresses are comfortable and help almost all women feel great. Today, I wanted […]

Every once in awhile, I hear statements from parents booking a session for their family that make me smile. There’s a few myths about family photography that are circulating – and often prevent families from wanting to book sessions. I get it!

It’s such a small world!  This family found me on Instagram and were interested in me photographing their daughter. As we began to talk more and plan their milestone portraits, we found out that their sister works with me!!

Recently, a client and dear friend of mine said: “I just wish I had more pictures with my mom.” That single sentence simultaneously broke my heart and reminded me why I do what I do as a family photographer. So many of us look at portrait sessions as a “here and now” thing, when really […]

In a few of my recent posts, you might have seen my reference to my “client closet.” Today, I thought it would be fun to really explore what my client closet is, what’s included, and why I absolutely love it (and my clients do, too!).  So… what is a client closet?  It’s a curated collection […]

I absolutely love working with new families to capture the early days of their baby at home. When the M. family reached out to me about their new little boy’s arrival and a lifestyle newborn session in their Baltimore home, I was thrilled. We immediately got to chatting and planning. I can’t wait to show […]

If I’ve never said how much I love Downtown Annapolis, I’m saying it now. I was so happy when this sweet family booked their portraits and we began talking about locations. They wanted to have an urban location that would feel clean and fun… so immediately, I thought of Downtown Annapolis. I’m so excited to […]
