Maryland Family Photographer

Playful in-home and outdoor photography for relaxed Baltimore area families.

Serving Baltimore City, Baltimore County, Harford, Anne Arundel, Howard County, Montgomery, Prince Georges, Frederick and the DC areas.

For laid back Maryland Families

I create playful, honest and timeless photography for families in the Greater Baltimore area and surrounding counties.

The natural chaos of families with children is my favorite. That's what I love about lifestyle photography, and as a mom of five kids, I am used to anything you bring.

Have a crazy but adorable toddler who refuses to give anything but a cheese smile? Bring it on because I promise I can get the natural expressions. Although, I'll likely get one of those cheese smiles also, just because it's cute. ;)

Are you wondering if your home is photo-worthy (hint, it is), or should you do it at an outdoor location? I'm going to walk you through all of that too. All you need to decide is that there's no better time than the present to document a little snippet of this moment.

Playful candids and classic portraits for relaxed Maryland families.

Outdoor family sessions are perfect for those who are are hesitant to in-home sessions and love the outdoors. They take place at one of several locations near Baltimore and Howard County Maryland, around sunrise or sunset when the light is soft and glowing.

Petite (aka mini) sessions are offered a few times a year for returning clients only because it's good to know me first before diving into a short and sweet session. 

These are easily my favorite for not only the most variety, but for creating the unique meaningful images. These sessions take place both in your home and around it outside (if you wish). Documenting a little time capsule of this season of life. 

It doesn't matter if your home large and decorated, or small and bare. If you have a window (which you do) and the desire to see the raw emotion of this time, we can make magic together. Every session is different, reflecting your family's own unique bond.

If you're a laid back family who can see the beauty in the little things, and appreciates a good laugh, we may be a good fit.

My style is playful yet emotive, warm in tone, and true to life in color. I love natural color and skin tones! I pride myself about obsessing over natural colors vs trends.

Booking the Session

The day has come! I'll arrive to your home, get to know the lighting a bit and get started! In the warmer months, we can venture out in your back or front yard (if you wish!), and we'll relax in the areas that have the best light.

The actual session is relaxed, following the lead of your baby and other children. Gently guiding you into natural poses that allow connections to unfold.

Kind Words

KIM!!!!! Thank you for making it absolutely impossible to narrow it down, can I have 166 frames in my house?! Absolutely obsessed. I will cherish these forever. You really captured him beautifully.

— Bailey, Baltimore Maryland

Kim went above & beyond to make us feel comfortable and natural. My husband (who is not a picture person) was amazed by how easy going and relaxed the shoot was!

— Laura D, Essex Maryland

During the shoot Kim was timely, warm, flexible, attentive to detail, and worked really hard to make our family comfortable.

—Jessica, Baltimore Maryland

Kim has been photographing our family for two years. We absolutely love her! We’ve done outdoor sessions at a park in Catonsville and Elkridge, and a combined newborn / outdoor session in our neighborhood in Federal Hill. The pictures are always amazing. Kim does a great job with little kids and keeps the sessions just long enough to get terrific shots, but not too long that our toddler (or my husband!) starts to lose interest. She is prompt in responding to inquiries and to turning around the image gallery from the shoots. I am so glad that we have these photos to look back on as our children grow. I always look forward to taking next year’s photos!

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Kim to anyone looking for meaningful photos that perfectly capture your family!

from the google reviews....

"She truly captures the real moments, the true connections, the true memories, the magic in children's eyes, and the love between siblings, couples and families."
