As a Southern Maryland Maternity and Family Photographer, I was reminded of this perfect maternity session by Timehop today! I am so busy with sessions that I often struggled to find time to get every gorgeous work on my website in a permanent space. This session was one of my favorites of last year! I […]
As an Annapolis newborn photographer, I was worried about whether or not I would get to continue documenting cute little babies with COVID-19. As a mom of a child who is immune compromised and a mom of three kids who are not yet old enough to receive the vaccine, I definitely understand the position parents […]
I love storytelling, and having a DC Area at home newborn session allow me to just that! Ideally, we want your session to be in just one day, but if schedules don’t accommodate that, I’ll sometimes break a newborn session into two! I did that for sweet little KJ, whose dad is in the military […]
If you don’t know how I run lifestyle newborn sessions, this post is for you. Lifestyle newborn sessions are a mix of documentary, lifestyle, and portraits. They last two hours long, and they can be lots of fun even though the parents are stressed and sleep deprived! During these sessions, I like the babies to […]
Even though I often work as a DC area lifestyle newborn photographer, the pandemic kept me from taking too many newborn shoots since March. I did just two newborn shoots this past summer, and both were for friends. I wanted to be cautious about going into someone’s home with a tiny baby whose immune system […]
So two friends, one of whom is a longtime client, had babies due in June, and I honestly didn’t think I’d be able to do newborn shoots. I didn’t think I’d actually have a blog entitled “Alexandria Newborn Photographer” up this year, and I was worried about giving these weak immune systems covid. Even with […]
I get a lot of inquiries about newborn photography, and I have to remind people I am a lifestyle newborn photographer. That often is followed by explaining to people what that actually means. I love newborn sessions that show the big picture. I love capturing the connection of everyone related to this new, tiny human […]
My longtime client turned friend asked back in November if we could do a maternity session in the snow. I was trying to honor my break and not work until January 19, but when I saw a decent amount of snow in the forecast, I sent her a message immediately, hoping she’d be game. What […]
I ventured to Arnold, Maryland just outside of Annapolis, to photograph Baby David the week before Christmas. I found some great light in Baby David’s room and was able to capture him with his furry big brother, Percy. While I do a tiny bit of posed photography, the lifestyle newborn shoots are what I live […]
Venturing into Washington DC for a maternity session at a new place was a great way to start my Christmas break! If you haven’t been to Rock Creek Park, this location was a dream. This gorgeous mama wanted her maternity shots on Boulder Bridge in Rock Creek Park. Because the park is taken care of by the National Park Service, clients have to pay for a permit, just like they would for the National Mall. I’m so glad that didn’t deter her, because this session was amazing.
