Deale, Maryland Family Photographer | The G Family
June 6, 2019 By  Teresa With  0 Comment
In  Photography

Deale, Maryland is one of my favorite little places along the Chesapeake Bay. So I was thrilled when this momma and military service member asked me to capture her family of five.

When she e-mailed me to inquire about a session, she mentioned that she liked the connection she saw between the families in the frame, and as a family photographer, I’ve been trying really hard to do more than get pictures of people smiling at the camera.

I still love a good portrait, but my heart sings when I get paid to play, and that was what last Friday was. The G Family was my family in reverse. Mom was military, dad was a nurse, oldest kid was a boy, and he had two younger sisters. Age differences between the kids were about the same as mine… he was three almost four and the youngest was just about seven months old

I stepped back into time momentarily, remembering how hard life was… my oldest was not quite old enough to really help, and I felt trapped at the house because it was hard going anywhere with my two year old and baby.

I was impressed at how not tired this mom and dad seemed, and can we pause for a moment … if you only look at a few photos in this gallery look at the ones I included of just THEM. Man, are they in love?! They let the kids be and took a few minutes to really connect with each other, and it was gorgeous to document!

I played and played, loving every minute of it. And their little boy was my buddy; he warmed up to me fast, wanting to hold my hand as we walked around. (Side note: lots of creativity was needed since I needed him with his family, not me!)

Thank you, G Family, for being so much fun to spend time with; I love when my job doesn’t feel like “work”! I loved witnessing the connection and in your family of five!

If you are interested in booking a session, message me through my contact page or e-mail me at teresa@tcjdesign.com. I still have summer openings!

    There is something I just love about the 2-4 age. I embrace the curiosity, the desire to be close to mom and dad, the silliness, the raw emotions. I know many photographers hate this age. Yes, it's hard to get them to sit still, but I love playing games and letting them explore. I can get them to just be. Now that my kids are older, it's harder to get them to just BE in front of the camera. I miss them at this age. So simple, beautiful, and fun.

    I'm taking my kids into DC to hit a museum and Ford's Theater with a friend today, and when I go near the National Mall, I still can't get over how lucky I am to live here. It doesn't get old seeing the monuments and history at our doorstep! 

I still have one more slot open for my August 20 National Mall mini sessions! It's at 7:20 a.m. Book by going here: https://tcjdesign.hbportal.co/schedule/60e34d525768d7003239e230
    This maternity session. 😍 I will be oversharing this.
    My 7:20 am National Mall mini slot for August 20 is still available! Tag a friend you think might be interested. Details are in my most recent blog on www.tcjdesign.com.
    Families with older kids, please get your photos taken, too. Documenting all milestones are important… and your oldest going off to college is definitely one of them!
    My world. ❤️
    When our photographer canceled, I bought a tripod and just attempted photos myself. Not as much fun for me, but I got in the frame!
    If you are on my mailing list, tomorrow evening you will want to check your email! Access happens around 7 p.m. for tree farm minis! This year they will be held on November 5 with an inclement weather date of November 6. The link will go out to the general public not on my mailing list on Thursday morning at 9 a.m. These usually book fast, and pricing wise, they're my best deal of the year, so Merry Christmas a bit early! :) 🎄
