As a small business owner and parent myself, I value a high end experience for all of my clients. That means I want them to get everything they wanted during their session with me – as well as before and after! This sweet family might look familiar. They were on the blog in March and […]

Springtime in DC is one of my favorite times of year. The light sunsets, the sweet cherry blossoms, and the warm weather just create such beautiful days! This spring, I had the chance to meet up with M. and her parents for a family portrait session at the Constitutional Gardens and Albert Einstein Memorial here […]

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 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 […]

It’s such a small world!  This family found me on Instagram and were interested in me photographing their daughter.

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 […]

As the spring quickly approaches, it’s common to see family photographers advertising their spring calendar. You might see announcements of “spring minis” as well as photographers talking about a regular, full session. If you’re wondering which is the right fit for your family, today’s blog post is for you! We’re going to talk about how […]

This sweet Shrine of St. Anthony’s spring mini session is sure to make you smile! I photograph a lot of sessions here at the Shrine of St. Anthony’s throughout the year, but these spring portraits are just so perfect. This is one of my favorite spots in Howard County because it’s always quiet and looks […]
