This stunning lavender bloom field family photo session in Frederick Maryland’s own Springfield Manor is one of my favorite traditions each year. Signaling the beginning of summer to me, these fragrant blooms shine in the most lovely purple and green hues, making the perfect backdrop for family photos at sunset. People ask me each year is this in Maryland? With total disbelief as it looks out of France or some exotic location – but yes this is right here at home in Frederick Maryland! I love all of the little boutique farms and specialized crops that our town produces, and adore that they offe ..read more

This stunning newborn baby brother in studio newborn session was the perfect way to end the year! I’ve been photographing this beautiful family for a couple years, and this special baby brother was incredible for his newborn session and I loved how excited big sister was too. This beautiful mama wore one of my studio wardrobe dresses and big sister had brought a really special star dress with loads of sparkle and shine. The stunning newborn baby brother was super sleepy for parts of the session and then wide awake with great eye contact for other times. I love how the session was filled with n ..read more

One year goes by so quickly – especially when viewed through the eyes of a new baby! This sweet baby boy was just in my studio seemingly yesterday (even though it was a year ago) for his amazing newborn session. This year we celebrated him turning 1 and it was such an awesome experience for his birthday fun! We started outside in the prettiest spring day, wearing gorgeous colors and clothing, to celebrate his spring birthday. Then we came inside and did some beautiful neutral images in my all white studio, and then ended with the super fun space cake smash. The parents brought in some fun ball ..read more

This post has been a long time coming – as it was one of my most memorable I’ve had in all my years being a photographer. As all of you know, my business (along with the rest of the world) was shut down in April of 2020, due to Covid-19. I’ll never forget talking to this mama who had just brought home her new baby, and we were supposed to have our photo session the week of April 15th. We both decided to “put it off for 2 weeks” and meet up after this whole “virus thing passed us”. HA. What an unfunny, insane joke looking back now. Needless to say, months went by before I was able to legally wo ..read more

I adored this in home Northern Virginia lifestyle newborn photo session as it combined the beauty of a spectacularly decorated home with the adorableness of a new baby boy. This sweet family welcomed their first baby boy into their gorgeous home and I was so excited to capture it all! The gorgeous mama wore one of my studio dresses, and had her hair done up in a super cute side braid. Dad was so loving and adorable with his new family of three, and so very proud! Sweet baby L was spectacular and so much fun to photograph, and even flashed me a couple of sweet smiles. We used a few textured thr ..read more

This Frederick MD in studio newborn session was absolutely epic! I’ve been photographing this beautiful family for a couple years, and this special baby sister was their fifth baby and first girl! This beautiful mama is the owner of the incredible bridal store in Frederick, MD called Posh Bridal, so you know having a baby girl after all these cute boys was a special surprise! Mama chose a dress from my studio wardrobe, and the focus while on baby girl, was hard to not get excited about the whole group of five siblings together. These four brothers were super sweet and protective and loving wit ..read more

I adored this in home Washington DC newborn lifestyle photo session as it combined the beauty of a spectacularly decorated home with the love of an amazing family. This little brother’s newborn session was the second time I had photographed in this DC home, as the first was when I photographed his big brother’s newborn session a few years ago. I loved getting to meet their new baby boy, and see this amazing family again. Their home is a photographer’s dream home with architectural details everywhere you look, and beautiful decor surrounding each room. This little brother had the sweetest face ..read more

This Frederick MD in studio newborn session was absolutely stunning! I’ve been photographing this beautiful family for a couple years! I photographed them initially for new big brother’s newborn session a few years ago, and it was so fun to have them back to Frederick for their new baby girl’s newborn photo session. This beautiful mama’s red hair stole the show, and we kept the rest of the colors soft and neutral to keep the focus on their sweet baby girl and their love for each other. I love when my clients come from Northern Virginia and Washington DC to my Frederick Maryland studio as they ..read more
