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.

This sweet holiday family portrait session was just a joy to photograph! I love this time of year and working with families while they’re cozy in their house is always a good time. For this Howard County in-home holiday family session, I got to spend the afternoon at their gorgeous house capturing a little bit […]

I’m so happy I had the chance to capture this family’s sweet Fells Point family portraits. These four are just SO sweet together and we wound up with the perfect day to use some spots we might not otherwise have been able to. I love when my clients introduce me to new spots – it’s […]
