This session felt like a dream…the kindest parents, cute toddler, darling newborn and super sweet pup. Oh, and the light. Every fall I am reminded why I love photographing so much during this season. It has a warm glow I don’t see any other time of year. We started out under the branches of a […]

Every newborn is so exciting but when it’s family, I get absolutely thrilled! This was a very busy session with two older siblings but there were so many sweet moments during our time together. The toddler loved on his cat (who made it into a few of the photos), big sister planted a few kisses […]

I drove to lovely Annapolis to meet the Castleberry family. They welcomed little India Wheaton Louise into the world. She was so little and absolutely darling. We took most of their photos on their front porch steps with their French Bull dog watching, wanting in on the fun. Big brother Hayes was very excited about […]

I have been really enjoying all the outdoor newborn sessions lately. We are still able to get all the typical poses with the parents and baby but also some of those “posed” images as well.

This little man was so, so sweet! He started out a bit unsettled but after he ate, he settled in for the entire session. So many newborns act like they are starved when it’s time to start a session. They hear new voice and sense a new person in the home and want to stay […]

There is something I love about simple newborn photography. There are no distractions and you can truly focus on what matters most…the baby. Last week I had the honor of visiting my friend Bethany and seeing her little man. He is already a heart breaker at 3 months. He gave me so many different expressions […]

I have several close friends who are expecting babies and two sister-in-laws, so I was making a list of baby gift ideas. I thought you all might want to see some of them as well. I fall for cute clothes every time but I also love buying gifts they can use later too. At the […]
