TWENTY. FLIPPING. YEARS. I keep thinking of 20-year-old me imagining this milestone, which makes me giggle. Never, ever, in my wildest imagination, did I think that I would still be doing this 20 years after becoming an LLC, quite honestly on a whim, from my DC dorm room Gateway laptop. (remember those?!) This has been […]

Y’all know it takes a very special couple to pull me out of wedding photographer retirement! Congrats to Wendi + Dave, who had a beautiful March wedding at the newly renovated Citizen’s Ballroom. DOwntown Frederick is the perfect place for wedding photos, no matter the weather. Venue | Citizens Ballroom Caterer | Celebrations Catering and […]

HAPPY 2023! I hope everyone had a safe, restful holiday. I’m not sure I’d call mine “restful,” but it was quite fun! Our dear friends from Michigan drove out to spend some time with us, and we had a blast. Max loved having extra kiddos in the house, and we enjoyed showing the Adams Crew […]

I don’t get to do many senior photo sessions, but I have to say- I love it and I want to do more. Kaya is an incredible young lady. The first thing that stood out to me is how confident she is. She knows what she wants, she knows who she is, and she knows […]

Happy Monday! It was a super rainy weekend, so we spent a lot of time inside. We did get to go on a nice long walk yesterday morning, which I was so grateful for! Those of you who have had/have toddlers- how much leeway do you give with crayons/markers/etc? I want him to enjoy these […]

Hope you all had a nice, safe weekend. I had TWO micro weddings and a family session- I am pooped! Last week Joe and I both finished up work early and decided to take a little drive. I never bring a camera with me on these little trips, but grabbed one and stuffed it in […]

Wheeeeewwww. While I am not ready for cold weather, I am ready for non-90 degree days. We spent a lot of time at home (what’s new?) and I started clearing out Max’s clothes to start adding in the next size… all moms get sad about that, right? It’s so folding up the clothes I loved […]

The Ehlert Family is a fellow military family who moved here from Texas. I met them when they became our next door neighbors last year. And they are Packers fans! I met this adorable family of four in Baker Park in Downtown Frederick on a very breezy day, but I think our photos turned out awesome. It […]

Last week I had the pleasure of photographing Frederick County Department of Social Services Graduation Celebration. I have done this for a few years now, and it’s really special. These students have risen above so many challenges and graduated from high school. Many are headed on to college, and I am so excited for them. […]
