A Princess and Her True Love - Bowie Maryland Wedding Photographer

Do you ever know why so many of your wedding vendors are still stressing the importance of a detailed wedding timeline? Well this amazing couple did and they did it very well. The afternoon and evening was great. It started on time and ended on time with a horse drawn carriage exit. Love was definitely in the air and felt throughout the day in this family. We enjoyed working with them immensely.

A wedding day timeline is hour by hour written description that represents how your wedding is supposed to take place. It provides a roadmap of how the event is going to go from start to finish. 

Wedding timelines are essential to the vendors and service workers who are in charge of the event from start to finish. When complete details are not included in the timeline, it could be very hard to keep an event on track. In addition, most times guests need a little direction on where they are supposed to be and what exactly they are supposed to do. 

Keeping a fixed wedding timeline helps the people you hire to guide your guests during the event and to know what to pay attention to during the event. Not only is an excellent opportunity to understand exactly what your guest imagine for the event, but also a fantastic way to solve some time issues while visualizing the event. Many things can go wrong with your event. That is why is necessary to have an actionable plan and also an intelligent event coordinator that will make your plan comes in the form of a timeline.

URBAN PORTRAITURE- MARYLAND HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR PORTRAITS

Celebrating graduating Seniors is something I love to do!  When you accomplish this first major milestone in your life it is important to be celebrated.  I met this young man's mother through a group of friends and we became great friends.  Well mom wanted photos...so mom gets photos!  We went out with some simple outfits...not to much fuss but we got some amazing photos to show personality.  

Please enjoy and share.  I love customizing locations and shoots to match personalities; after all the portrait should show you in the best light.

VIRGINIA BIRTH PHOTOGRAPHY - ISSA BIRTH SESSION

There is nothing like seeing a baby being born.  Now, if you know me...you know I have no children and I have never been in the room during a birth.  However, I have a bunch of friends with children and I have a motherly way about me and know what to do with children and how to take care of them.  So with that being said, I was called to come photograph this session because I knew the mother of mother of the patient!  I walked in and she was ready to start pushing...PERFECT TIMING!  I told you I know what I am doing!  So in between taking pictures I coached and counted and held legs and fed ice chips! It was sooooo exciting!  I felt like Miranda Bailey (Grey's Anatomy).  When it came time for the baby to come out and the doctor came in and things got intense I was right there with my camera and I didn't miss a moment! I tell you it was the most amazing thing EVER! I can't wait until the next birth session! It was just amazing to see a life come into the world and to be apart of it with the family.

SAN ANTONIO SENIOR PHOTOGRAPHY - AROUND THE TOWN SHOOT

So proud of this young lady right here!  I met her when she was just 3 years old and now she is 17 and getting ready to graduate high school.  She has turned out to be a respectful, polite, intelligent, god-fearing person and I just love being around her!  oh and her sense of fashion is off the charts!  Her mother has done well raising her and I just couldn't wait to get to San Antonio to take her portraits.

We started the day with makeup  and hair and then off to the Alamo for some quick shots. We then headed to the rooftop of the River Walk parking center for a couple of clothing changes and then to Hemisphere park.  We then concluded the day at the Hayes Street bridge to get the view of the city skyline in the cap and gown.  A first class session for a first class girl!

Check out the images from Iyanna's shoot below!

MARYLAND SENIOR PHOTOGRAPHER - NEW YEAR'S EVE STYLED SHOOT!

One thing I love is being around teens because they keep you young and up to date on the latest!  This year I decided to try something different and shoot a styled New Year's Eve shoot with a group of Maryland teens at the DC City Center.  These girls were super excited for this chance to get dressed up, brave the 22 degree weather, come and floss for the camera.  We had a great time despite the frozen toes and fingers at the end of the session.  I thank them for coming out and hanging with me for the session and I will see them later in the year for their individual sessions.

Take a look at some of the favorites from the session!
