The first question I ask when I receive an inquiry about newborn photos is whether the client wants to do studio or in home photos. This is a very important consideration and it is extremely client dependent. There are so many factors involved in determining where your newborn’s photo session will take place and I […]

Today we’re going to talk Bucket List Photo Locations. I’ve been in business since March of 2017 so I’ve done a LOT of photo sessions. When you’re first starting out, you shoot anywhere that the client wants. Oh, I’ve shot in so many places that I look back on now and shake my head at. […]

As a former postpartum and newborn nurse, breastfeeding is near and dear to my heart and, at every opportunity, I offer breastfeeding photo sessions. 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 […]

My studio is a good size…if you’re a newborn. If you’re a family of 5, things get a little dicey 🤭 Family posing in studio is something that can definitely be done in the studio but it takes a little finessing, depending on how many family members we’re talking about. When I shoot a newborn […]

No, I am not claiming to be the best newborn photographer – though I might be the best one in Burtonsville, hee (self-deprecation is my M.O.). No, my goal with the title of this blog is for Google to send you to me so that I can show you why I am the best newborn […]

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 […]

Maybe you’ve never thought about what a Google review means to a small business – and if you’re not a small business, why would you?? – but I’m here to tell you that it means A LOT. So many people make a hiring decision based on reviews and the difference between a business that has […]

God’s timing is perfect.

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 […]
