Laird & Ryder - Annapolis Twin Photographer

I was super excited when Ellen contacted me and asked me to photograph her soon to be born twins! The last time I had photographed twins I was very new at photographing newborns, let alone twins. I have learned a lot since those days...and one thing I learned was bring someone to help! So I recruited my friend (and second shooter) Kelly along for the session.

These little guys were heaven...Laird was awake the entire time - well except for brief moments, but he was always happy. And Mr. Ryder slept the entire time - the.entire.time, it was unreal. I am sure that Ellen had a lot of quality one on one time up late night partying with Ryder after our session. :)

I had a blast during this session. These boys couldn't have been born into a more amazing family. They have 3 big brothers to look up to and two giving and caring parents who would do anything for them and others. Ellen & Christian thanks so much for allowing me to come and capture the newness of your two little guys - they are simply perfect! Enjoy your sneak peek!

Burton Family - Harford County Family Photographer

I personally think that a gift of photos is one of the best and most treasured gifts anyone can give and I am not saying that just because I am photographer. Think about it - wouldn't you never want to forget how your 2 year old climbs up and on top of everything and how much it drove you crazy, that your little boy smiled so huge that his mouth seemed like it was always wide open or how little your son was when you became pregnant with your 2nd child - because trust me, he will look HUGE when that baby arrives! These are moments in time you will never want to forget and this amazing family will always have these photos to look back upon and remember these little things about their family at this stage.

These four wonderful kids (in the first photo) decided to gift their Mom and Dad with photos for the holidays, a gift they will treasure forever. The point in the time of their life when they had 8 grandkids - soon to be 9. These families are near and dear to my heart as the Mom's and Dad's are some of our best friends and their kids are some of my girls best friends. Everyone in this big happy family is super lucky if you ask me :) Merry Christmas Mrs. Lori and Mr. Tim - Enjoy your sneak peek!

Pietryka Family - Harford County Child and Family Photographer

The rain has been messing up a lot of my sessions this holiday season. I don't remember having this much rain or this many weather related cancellations ever. Well we beat the rain this day - all of my morning sessions were cancelled, but Morgan was willing to chance it and try to sneak in their family session and I am so glad we did!

Morgan is a first time client of mine, however she came to be a client by referring a friend of hers to me when she hadn't even used me herself! I was in great awe when I heard that someone had thought so highly of my work that she would refer me to a good friend before even meeting me. Humbled.

So I emailed Morgan as a thank you and offered her a referral credit - as I do all of my clients - and then she signed up for a session for her beautiful family. Referrals mean the world to me and my business...without my amazing clients (and their friends!) I wouldn't be where I am today. So thank you!!

Morgan, thanks for risking it - I'm sure you'll think it was well worth the chance :) Enjoy your sneak peek!
