March 30, 2017. A day that I will never forget. But first, let's back up a bit. In 2013, I got an email from Rachel. We were both members of a Maryland Photographers' group on Facebook and she was looking for second shooters to help her out with weddings for the year. I was weeks away from quitting my day job and starting this hustle full time, so I was excited and eager for the extra work. We met in person,...
Last year I met Kinsey, Jon, and Orion for their first session as a family. It was the perfect milestone, 6 months old. Ori was such an easy baby to photograph, everything was interesting and he was all smiles! I didn't expect that it would be just as easy for his one year session. One year is such a tough age - everything is more interesting than the camera, and their mobility is greatly increased. It's always a challenge. But...

Here are just a few of the various family, maternity, and anniversary sessions done...
When Lauren reached out about doing a family session this fall, I was beyond excited. Lauren was a bridesmaid in one of my favorite weddings earlier this year, and I couldn't wait to get her family in front of my camera. Little Nate is the happiest 8 month old and he totally stole my heart! It's no wonder he's such a cutie with gorgeous parents like Lauren and Shane! We lucked out with a November day in the mid-70s and there were still...
A couple of weeks ago, Kinsey reached out to me about capturing their first family photos as a family of three. Baby Orion is 6 months old (best name ever) and there's no better age to be photographed, if you ask me! Six month olds are happy and engaged and so fun, and Orion was the epitome of all of those things. I had a blast capturing this adorable family at their new home. I hope to see Kinsey, Jonathan...
