So I had every intention of blogging about my Christmas tree farm minis before Christmas, but my break from teaching has gone anything but planned! After battling a virus all week, I’m finally starting to feel a bit like myself and I’m trying to knock things off my monstrous to-do list. Since I have been […]
Life Update: Learn why you need to book your fall sessions today!
So, this blog post has been coming for a while. In case you didn’t know, I’m a military spouse, and any of us who are military spouses know that we aren’t completely in control of our lives. Part of why I got into photography was I needed a more flexible job that I could control […]
Sunflower Mini Session | Calvert County Lifestyle Photographer
So while I’ve been trying to cut back on photography, I just couldn’t resist sunflowers. I had been hunting for some last summer, but everything I found was too far away. Then, I came across an event on Facebook with the Accokeek Foundation featuring their Sunflower Days. One of my best friends from college was […]
Richardson Military Promotion | Family Photographer Washington, DC Area
It’s hard to believe that it was just last year that my family was in the Richardson’s shoes. We celebrated my husband’s promotion to Lt. Colonel in the Air Force over Memorial Day last year. I know my husband was a bit envious of Jason Richardson’s promotion when I came home and told him about […]

Small Business Feature: Medart Galleries in Dunkirk, Maryland
So I don’t know how many of you are like me, but I take a lot of photos of my kids. When they were little, I bought the month by month stickers, and I made sure I took a photo. With my first, I was religious about it. I took them on the monthly milestone, […]

1st Birthday: What a lifestyle & documentary shoot likes like
So what makes me different that those other photographers you see? You may see “Lifestyle and Documentary” photographer and wonder what that really means…while I do some “portraits” here and there, most of what I try to capture is life.

Documenting life again after the winter blues
If you are interested in a documentary session, don’t wait. What is great about TRUE documentary is you don’t have to plan anything. You just do your normal thing. I can even show up while you are still in PJs (and actually that’s even better). It’s about capturing the routine–the making of breakfast, the sharing of meal and conversation, the play, the discipline, the love–every good and bad part of what your life is like RIGHT NOW.
