Family Session

Monday afternoon I had the pleasure of photographing the beautiful & very energetic Kravitz family! Despite the heat & humidity, this family ran up and down the pier at Chesapeake beach countless times, laughing & smiling uncontrollably! I had a fantastic time & had a tough time deciding what pictures to choose for the blog! They were all too cute! :)

Chloe had more energy than anyone I've ever photographed! :) 

Who couldn't love that face? He is adorable!

 

All the best,

Maryland United Lacrosse Club

My comfort zone lies in portraits, weddings, and couples.. I've even photographed the occasional dog or too. But lacrosse is something that, although I played for more than half of my life, I've never photographed. I've recently started donating my services to a nonprofit organization known as the Maryland United Lacrosse Club that helps young women pursue their goals on and off of the field. Fierce competition mixed with an amazing attitude of positivity and camaraderie make this organization the finest in the region! I'm proud to be involved with such an incredible group of young women! :) Here is a quick glimpse of their tournament in Ocean City last weekend! Enjoy!

You'll see more of these girls as their club lacrosse season continues! Good luck this summer ladies! :) 

All the best,

Back from the Beach!

I returned home last night from a much needed week at the beach! ;) Now it is back to work for this sun-kissed photographer! I have nearly 200 emails in my inbox to reply to! Yikes! If you emailed me over the past seven or eight days, I apologize for the delay - I'll be getting back to you all shortly!

I had a fantastic family session this afternoon & have so much going on this week as well! :) Email me soon, June & July dates are filling up FAST!

All the best,

Hasting's Session

I had my first traditionally southern toddler session a few days ago! My friend & an incredible mother, Anne, wanted to have pictures taken of her darling son Hastings. So we loaded up the car and drove to a local Annapolis Park. The weather was beautiful & the session lasted just under 45 minutes! Short & sweet! :) Here are a few pictures from the day!

All the best,

Alex's Senior Session

Watch out world, Alex is a high school senior on her way to University of Maryland next year! Not only is she smart, but absolutely gorgeous as well! She hopes to attend Medical School one day & I have no doubt that she'll make an incredible doctor! Enjoy!

We were both soaking wet, completely sandy.

But that's what you get for shooting at the beach on a gorgeous day!  :)

Another one of my favorite jumping shots  :)

Congratulations Alex! Best of luck next year in college, you're going to love it!  :)  Yay!

All the best,
