Last days before baby {Baltimore maternity photo session}

Soon they will be three... such an exciting time for them!

Can I keep her? {Linthicum newborn photo session}

Miss Dorothy, how I wanted to tuck you under my coat and sneak out the door with you!
She gave me everything I wanted, awake, asleep, a little funny smile here and there...even a wink! Right back at ya... Miss Dorothy!

Justin, so new... so awake. (Annapolis newborn portraits}

Ahhh, Justin...just how DOES a baby of only a few days old manage to stay awake for so long? The world may never know. Justin was wide-eyed and party-ready for 99% of our shoot. But for that one percent where he gave up the fight, oh, my, was it worth it...

Lincoln, six-month-old baby portraits {Maryland Baby Portrait Studio}

WIth Mr. Lincoln here, it was more of a challenge to get a shot with a serious expression than one with smiles...this chunky monkey must even smile in his sleep...such a little love!

Faith, five...{PA child portraits}

Sugar and spice, and a million questions, that's what Miss Faith is made of! Five-year-old Faith was full of curiosity and laughs, and just a tad of silliness -- such fun to have in my studio!

Baby Noah, Six Months {Maryland baby portraits}

There is just something special about babies this age...this is when they are the "quintessential baby", all smiley and drooly and lovey...just like little Noah here...such a sweetheart!

Big boy {newborn portraits Baltimore}

Logan came into this world looking like a three-month-old with a birth weight of nine pounds 12 ounces. He was bright-eyed and taking it all in for most of the session, but we coaxed him into a little nap toward the end.

Her name means "life"... {newborn portraits Maryland}

This is baby Vida, so sweet and so loved...her name has meaning on many levels for her family, and means "life" in Spanish...how perfect!

Oh, brothers! {Maryland kid portraits}

The two boys were so much fun...the little one is already a MOVER, so I had to pull out some containment devices!

Twin newborn baby boys {Baltimore twin portrait session}

There must be a special corner of Heaven reserved for the mothers of twin boys... these little guys were a lot of fun and lot of work!

Baby Sophia, growing family {Maryland newborn portraits}

Miss Sophia is the newest baby of one of the first families I photographed after moving to Baltimore. Her brother was a lovely little one and so is she!

Two in there! Twin pregnancy photo session, Baltimore

This mommy was such a trooper. She came to me just a few days before her twin baby boys were going to be delivered and was up for anything. I'm so excited to photograph her boys this week!
