Baltimore Family Portrait Photography • Ellicott City, Maryland

I had an absolute BALL photographing Zinka, Thomas & young Adrian last week  (or was it two?  I've been so busy!) in Old Ellicott City, Maryland.  Despite the chill in the air, they were up for anything.  What I loved about shooting them most was the love between the three of them that is so readily apparent.

Enjoy some of my favorite shots from the day!

Pennsylvania Wedding Photographer • Brett & Katie's Wedding

I had the great pleasure of attending the wedding of two of my favorite people this October - Brett & Katie!  I wasn't the official photographer so I kept my photo taking short & sweet (with the go-ahead of their lovely photographer, Kelly Hahn, of course ;) )

I did manage to get a couple of sweet shots however!  Here's a few of my favorites.

Baltimore Maryland Family Portrait Photographer - The Bell Family

Two weeks ago, it was a freezy-cold Saturday morning when the Bell Family (Ian, Lauren, and little Maxim) met me in Historic Ellicott City, Maryland for a fun, casual photo-shoot of their precious family.

They are to be commended for being such troopers, keeping a 9 month old baby boy happy and giggly in such cold weather!  We snapped a couple of pictures, then slipped inside a few shops - Maxim was fascinated by all the beautiful shiny things!  Then, after he lost his little grey beanie we popped my red one on him instead - such a cutie, he rocked it.

Brett's Headshots - Annapolis Photographer for Portraits, Headshots of Actors

Last week I had the opportunity to take Brett's headshots - he is the wonderful fiance of the beautiful Katie, one post down. :)

He's another one that doesn't love having his photo taken...well, unless he's making ridiculous faces!

I think the first shot below will get him a lot of work, eh?  Loving it!

Katie : Annapolis Actress Headshot Photography

I loved taking Katie's new headshots this past Wednesday - she was a little nervous because while she's a talented actress, she doesn't like being in front of a camera lense! 

My favorite thing to do in this sort of situation is to start a conversation, make the client laugh - and hopefully make her forget that I am shooting pictures the whole time.  :)  Katie's doggy "niece" helped us out as well!  You can always count on a sweet little puppy to set a good mood for a shoot.

PS - Thanks to Katie and her fiancee Brett for the delicious dinner - the perks of shooting right before dusk in a client's backyard! ;)

Photoshoot at Sandy Point with Shelagh!

It was an icky, muggy, cloudy morning when Shelagh and I hit up Sandy Point in Annapolis, Maryland to see what we could see - but we still had a great time, and a great photo shoot!  Looking through the photos afterward, I couldn't help squealing with glee - so pleased!

Annapolis Model Photoshoot with Joanna!

On July 1, I got to work with one of my favorite people, Joanna Tillman on a classy, sassy model shoot.  So exciting!  I spent the majority of my time snapping behind-the-scenes photos so Joanna can show her clients how much fun she is to work with - you can see a few here! 

I also got a chance to sneak in a few shots of our lovely model, Abby.  Here are some of my favorites!
