Every family has their own story. Some are loud and messy, filled with belly laughs and crayon drawings on the walls. Others are quiet and steady, marked by knowing glances and well-worn routines. Some families look like the ones we grew up with, and others look entirely different—bound by love, not tradition. What unites them […]
I loved getting to work with this family! First-time parents are always so much fun to work with. Sessions feel so tender and sweet because it’s truly a major milestone in their lives – and the story of their family. This newborn session took place in their daughter’s nature inspired nursery in Baltimore, MD and […]
One of the most common questions I get from expecting parents is when they should book their newborn session with a lifestyle newborn photographer. My response is always the same: whenever you’re ready. For years, photographers said newborn sessions needed to be done between 5-12 days after birth. But the reality is that you, baby, […]
You may have noticed that many newborn sessions feature little ones with a white onesie. It’s not a coincidence that a lot of photographers recommend these simple outfits for their clients’ newborn sessions. I, along with many other newborn photographers, want to create a simplified experience for our families that really allows your final images […]
I just adore the M family! I have to admit, this was one of the easiest commutes to a session… because I just had to walk next door!

One of the best things about being a family photographer is documenting moments for other families.

We were neighbors growing […]
I can’t say it enough: I LOVE lifestyle newborn sessions. These sessions are always so much fun and they’re a great way to see how families are in their natural environments. Being at home means way less stress for everyone – especially new parents and big siblings who want some extra attention, too. This sweet […]
When it’s time to book your newborn session, you’re going to find there’s two main styles of photographers: lifestyle v. posed newborn photographers. Each type of session and photographer has their own pros and cons. You’ll want to look through the differences and decide what might be best for your family. There’s absolutely NO right […]
Perhaps one of the best things about my job is getting to watch a family grow over the years. I’ve had the honor of photographing this particular family for years and watched as they’ve welcomed new babies to the world. So when they reached out to me about photographing their newest little girl, I couldn’t […]
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 […]
