BALTIMORE MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHY - FALL OUTDOOR GLAMOUR

Revisiting some of my sessions that I didn't get to post and this was one of my favorites.  A glam maternity is always liberating for a mom to be!  I think it gives women a chance to just let go and have fun right before the big day...at least that is what this mother said to me.  The chance to be outdoor and just to relax and just be was a great feeling.  She came out and was gorgeous with her hair and makeup and then her outfit just topped of the looks.  Once hubby jumped in and the couple shared their excitement for the new arrival it was a wrap.

Check out the images from the session with Ayo and Keinde!

Chrisitian M. - Maryland Newborn Photographer

Anyone that photographs newborns knows that ever session is different.  For some reason lately my last three little boys have given me a run for my money and little Christian was no different.  Usually I swaddle and they sleep but he was not here for it!  He was awake the entire session!  We still managed to get some great photos with his sister and brother and is Grandmother.  Another loving family in the books and I am glad they are enjoying their images.

DC Fashion Week 2016 - Maryland Photographer

Being in the DMV for two years has been an eye opening experience in many ways.  One way was to be able to discover the local fashion scene here in the city and it only took two years to find out that DC has a fashion week.  I was fortunate enough to be able to cover three of the events they had starting with the mens fashion show on the first night.  The second event I covered was the emerging designers of the area and eight designers were featured.  The finale night, which was my favorite, showcased a lot of the international designers that live here in the DMV area.  Below are just a few of the images I was able to show on this blog but believe me there were plenty of amazing designs this year!  I can't wait to see what the next season will bring for this DC designers.

The Shade Family - Maryland Photographer

While I was in Alabama a great friend and old boss of mine needed updated photos to document her family and there time in the south.  So while there we had this mini session at a nearby park and got these great shots.  I even got my little Calvin Klein model for the day to give me some interesting faces while we were out.  It was so good to see them and hang out for the few moments we had.

Introducing Miss Maria - Maryland Photographer

I had the great pleasure of traveling to Alabama to capture the newborn photos for this little princess.  She was so small and cuddly it was hard for me to put her down and get these few shots.  Her big sister Aurora even got in on a couple even though she wasn't feeling the greatest on this day.  Then to pull out the final photo...a baby that has Texas roots has to represent and that Miss Maria did.  Huge thanks to her mother and father for trusting me to take spend this time with them.

Neborn Portraits w/ Mr. Andrew - Maryland Photographer

BABY ALERT!!!!  11 days old and Andrew was in from of my camera!  He has a special blanket that he loves and without it...he doesn't stay asleep very long.  His mother and I had a time trying to keep him cozy and comfy.  As you can see even swaddled he was wide awake, but as soon as you put the magic blanket on him he would go to sleep.  He was adorable and can't wait to see him in 3 months!

Editor-In-Chief Session - Maryland Photographer

Recently I was contacted by an amazingly talented women to photograph her Editor-In-Chief portraits for her upcoming magazine launch.  We had one brief conversation and I knew we would be a perfect combo.  Upon arriving at the location and meeting her glam squad things just came together.  Little did I know everything I was going to learn that day nor the connections to come.  God is always on time!

Fashion Blog Session - Maryland Photographer

Fashion, fashion, fashion!!!  This lady has the look as well as the wardrobe to match.  We met on IG and from there I knew we would work well together.  Love Joy Styles writes a blog and puts her own twist on fashion by breaking the rules and creating her own looks with a mix of vintage and new.  It is so much fun working with someone that is so creative and allows you to be creative as well.  Check out her blog here: http://bit.ly/1S0Irv6

Miss Zoe's One Year Session - Maryland Photographer

Photographing a first year session can be hit or miss depending on the amount of sleep.  This was the case for Miss Zoe as she was not having a good day but we did get a few images for her parents to have and share with family and friends.  I am appreciative that her parents braved the cold weather to achieve this short session and I look forward to working with them again.

Mills Maternity Session - Maryland Photographer

Excited that this former photography classmate of mine trusted me to take her maternity and family portraits for her third and final child...so she says! LOL!  It was a pleasure having the Mills family in the studio for the afternoon and getting to know her hubby and other two children who are eagerly looking forward to the arrival of their little brother next month!  Congrats Monae!

Introducing Miss Margo - Maryland Photographer

There is nothing like having a newborn in the studio in the afternoon!  Miss Margo was no exception and was a pure joy to meet and cuddle with!  She was so sweet with her head full of hair and overall calm disposition.  Her parents and little sister have become a staple in my studio and I can't wait to see more milestones from this family as they continue to grow!

VA Family Portraits - Maryland Photographer

I was excited to be contacted by this blended family to photograph their love for each other.  I recently met them while in school and built a quick respect and friendship with them.  The girls were absolutely adorable and one was camera ready at all times...which makes me very happy as a photographer.  It was a pleasure photographing them on location in Richmond, Virginia and I look forward to many more sessions together.

Merlene Ashley - Maryland Photographer

Excited was not the word to describe my emotions as Ms. Merlene stepped out with this burgundy hair and makeup on point for her session!  She came ready to work and gave it everything for these images.  We had a great time walking around Richmond to obtain these images and she was an ultimate professional.  I have learned to travel to find these hidden gems that others are not willing to.  I am grateful for finding her and hope that our paths will cross again.

Mr. Sean G Session- Maryland Photographer

Everyone meet Sean or Shon as he is listed on social media!  Sean is an aspiring actor who lives in the DMV and was awesome to photograph.  He was more than willing to listen and opened to all the crazy ideas I had for his session.  We have another shoot scheduled soon and I can't wait to see what comes out of it.  Stay tuned!

Mr. Rayshawn - Maryland Photographer

Meeting people is what I do and I love when I meet people that like to be in front of my camera.  A few weeks ago I was contact by Rayshawn that wanted to update his photos to update his online presence.  He recently became a spokesperson for a supplement company and is on his way to doing big things.  I look forward to working with him again in the future.

Medieros Family Session - Maryland Photographer

Family sessions are so much fun...especially when they are a combo to announce the new arrival to the family.  This session was so fun and carefree on a chilly afternoon.  The girls were glad to walk in the leaves and sit and look at the water while mom and dad took some photos with each  other.  I can't wait to meet the new little one and capture his first moments.

Ms. Natalie Senior High Session - Maryland Photographer

Who doesn't remember their Senior year and all the excitement of getting ready to graduate? Senior sessions always take me back to my senior portraits and the fun I had having my own portraits taken.  I recently had the opportunity to meet this young lady and she was so sweet.  Just calm and wanted photos with her guitar and nothing to fancy.  Her gorgeous blue eyes and wonderful smile were such a delight to capture so she will have these photos for years to come.

Twins Malia & Joseph - Maryland Photographer

Babies are amazing and when you get to photograph two of them it is a wonderful thing!  I met these two little ones at 11 days old and they were just gorgeous.  Malia with her calm demeanor and Joseph, who is the feisty one already, brought such a joy.  Once both were asleep, because one would be awake and the other would snuggle, we were able to snap a couple of portraits.

I have learned so much through newborn photography and the number one thing is PATIENCE!!  I had a totally different vision for this session but you have to always be flexible when it comes to little ones.  I can't wait to see them grow and develop their personalities to see if they stay calm and feisty! :-)

Boudoir Photography - Maryland Photographer

I recently met this young lady through her fiancé and she and I are both from California and clicked immediately.  She wanted to do a session for him to surprise him and also to have a professional session done for herself....for once.  We had an amazing time as we customized her session to include his guitar and to accent her awesome tattoos.  Boudoir can be tastefully done, but the key is to find the photographer that makes you feel comfortable.
