Lifestyle newborn sessions are always a joy, but there’s something particularly special about photographing a family in their own home. Recently, I had the privilege of capturing a beautiful, lively family of four in their DC row home, and it was a session full of love, laughter, and just the right amount of chaos. A […]
Following a baby through her first year of life is such a rewarding experiences as a photographer. From the tender newborn moments to the joyful chaos of a first birthday, each session tells a piece of the story that families will cherish forever.

As a lifestyle newborn photographer, I am always excited to capture the sweet and special moments of a young family welcoming its newest addition for baby’s first photoshoot! When I arrived at Leya’s family’s large, light-filled home in Glenwood, Maryland, I was greeted by her adorable two year old brother and the family dog, Lulu. […]

I breastfed all three of my children for at least a year each. It was the most precious connection to share during that time and, often, I think back and kick […]
Today we’re going to talk about when you should reschedule your photo session. I have to be honest here…I’m not one of those hard core, heavy duty photographers who will shoot in tornados and gale force winds and epic snow storms. That’s just not my style and I know that about myself. My clients know […]
I love shooting in home newborn photos. I have traveled as far north as Harford County, MD, as far south as Loudoun County, VA, and as far east as Wicomico County, MD. (Disclaimer: I far prefer to stay within about 25 miles of Burtonsville, MD – these far-flung destinations aren’t my norm). I’ve been in […]
