A Joyful Approach to  Family Photography

I BELIEVE IN:

Simplicity, clean and vibrant editing for timeless photos, and doing whatever it takes to document a laugh even if it means making a fool of myself.

I'm NOT ABOUT:

Complicated ordering processes, trendy photo editing with crazy filters, and putting sessions into short time slots.

YOU CAN FIND ME:

If I'm not photographing a family, you can find me editing, blogging, cuddling kids or cats, doodling flowers, or trying to navigate the endless changes with SEO.

daily rituals

Morning affirmations, taking a million photos of my cats because my kids have photographers child syndrome, coffee, yoga, editing, blogging and laundry of course. Always laundry.

My Approach

I have been told that I put people at ease in front of the camera. It's probably one of the things that I'm most proud of. It probably comes from being a mom of five and knowing how chaotic it can be to have family photos taken. I know how it feels to be anxious in front of the camera, so trust me when I say, I have plenty of ways to make you all feel relaxed and forget that we are even taking photos.

While I do capture some traditional "look at the camera" photos at every family session, I will also fill your gallery with real connections, genuine belly laughs and authentic moments. I don't expect you to do this on your own, but rather with the use of fun prompts and laid back guidance. 

Whether you're worried about your crazy two year old who won't sit still (that is actually my favorite age!), or it's your first child, I have ways to help everyone relax. Including you. ;)

As a Baltimore Maryland lifestyle family photographer, my goal is to document what really matters.
