“MOM!!! I need cucumbers!” my littlest hollers at me from the tub, her voice echoing down the hall. I’m in the kitchen sweeping the floor and I can barely make out what she’s saying. I step to the stairs to yell back, “Why? We don’t eat snacks in the tub.” There is a pause. I can […]

Today I’m looking back to the crisp days of Fall with this beautiful, giggly family of five. We met at a park in Bel Air, MD in beautiful Harford County. This is one of the families I was blessed to work with during the Fall Family event- a short-and-sweet photo event designed to give my […]

Read Morecozy fall portraits
I love this family. We met at a park in Bel Air, MD to get some family portraits for their Christmas card last November. They look so effortlessly put together. They look like they rock that perfect Instagram life, but for real. But you know what? No one has that perfect Instagram life, and this […]
Read MoreBut wait- what happened to family portraits and marketing photos?
I recently closed down the photography portion of my business. While I'm not completely out of the photography game, I'm limiting my clients so I can focus on family and learning to live a slower, more intentional life.
