I really think that somehow, Kelly’s two boys manage to get even cuter every time I photograph them. I first started photographing this family when they were a family of three. Since then, I’ve captured their younger son’s newborn photos and additional photos to celebrate birthdays and milestones. We’ve always gone to different locations and […]

As November creeps in, it can be trickier and trickier to find the bright and bold fall foliage colors of October for family photo sessions. But it’s still possible. For this session with a local Frederick MD family of four, it was all about some creative camera angles and finding all the best little spots […]

If you follow me online, you know that I’ve been listening to the holiday music since November 1st and that I love the Christmas season so much. I have a lineup of my favorite Christmas movies that I must watch every year (sometimes multiple times in a year) and I get so excited about creating […]

I love all of my new clients, don’t get me wrong. Their trust in me is so important. However, there is something so uniquely special about seeing a familiar name enter your email inbox, asking you to capture family memories yet another time. Mom Megan is one of the kindest people I’ve ever met — […]

Lauren and her family just instantly make me smile. I love how she and her husband are just incredibly fun and patient parents and how much love they have to give to sweet Shelby and baby Savannah. I photographed Mom, Dad and Shelby last year for Fall photos and again earlier this year when Savannah […]

While most of my photos take place at some of my favorite waterfront and forested locations around Lake Linganore, every once in a while, a change of scenery is needed. It’s exciting to find a new location now and then, especially with a returning client and their family. For Mindi’s section with her three children, […]

Marta is an incredible inspiration as a mother — in 30 minutes time with her and her children, you can see her strength and love. You can feel the joy she brings to her son and daughter. Their laughter rings loud and gleefully whenever they are together. Marta reached out to me in the midst […]

I know that everyone wants a “perfect” family photo session — all group hugs and posed moments — but I really believe there is beauty in the more “imperfect” moments. I’ve photographed Michelle’s family several times now and I feel luckier and happier each time I do. I have captured her and her daughter playing […]

Watching repeat clients and their families return to in front of my camera is one of the greatest joys of my business. I first met Brooke and her family last Autumn while her husband was away on a deployment. I loved hanging out with Brooker and her two oldest boys. We explored, ran around and […]

This family includes one of my dearest friends in Maryland and her gorgeous family. Rachel and Adam and their kiddos have been an important part of our lives since we moved to Lake Linganore just over two years ago. Their eldest daughter has been in our daughter’s class two of the past three school years […]
