Baby Carlisle | Delaware {Maryland Newborn Photographer}

" Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love."   1 Corinthians 16:13, 14

This past Saturday, Evan and Patricia Hollins invited me into their home to capture their sweet baby, Carlisle.  Walking into his nursery that day, I was immediately struck by his parents love and care as they prepared for his arrival.  Evan spent many hours crafting the crib for the nursery.  It is absolutely beautiful! The scripture from 1 Corinthians is above his changing table... a visual reminder of what is truly important as they raise Carlisle in the way he should go.    I truly consider it a blessing to be a part of this process.  Enjoy meeting baby Carlisle...

Evan and Patricia thank you so much for inviting me to capture such a special milestone!

Owen Turns One | Towson, Maryland {Baltimore Milestone Photographer}

It was a joy to meet Owen a couple of weeks ago to get a head start celebrating his first birthday!  Remember this adorable little guy at 6 months?  I love the opportunity to photograph a baby several times over their first year because they change so fast!  We ended this photo session with a cake smash...I think it's safe to say he enjoyed his cake!

Happy 1st Birthday Owen!!

Hopkins Family Spring Session | Baltimore Maryland

I felt like I hit the jackpot when I heard that the Hopkins Family won the family session I had donated to a local carnival last fall.  George and Stefanie have the most infectious smiles.  Their love for the people of Baltimore is evident in their mission at Gallery Church SoWeBo.  We met one evening as the sun dipped below the trees and had a lot of fun creating these images together.  Their kids came to play which made for a fun, dynamic session!

Amato Sunset Anniversary Session | Towson, Maryland

After the long, cold, grey winter, I long for warmer days with beautiful light.  Thankfully BJ and Sam were up for a last minute anniversary session on a beautiful day in early April.  BJ and Sam are dear friends of ours from church.  We met BJ over 5 years ago when he and Wes were on a worship team together.  Since then we have shared meals and great conversation with these two, and are truly blessed by their friendship. 

The Hampton Mansion was the perfect place to catch the sunset before it dipped below the horizon.  BJ and Sam your love for one another was palpable.  You can see it through these images.  Thank you for making my job easy!  Happy 1 year Anniversary!
