Rachel and Craig planned their wedding for September 30th, 2022, an intimate private ceremony, surrounded by their families at a waterfront property in Annapolis. When I met them there on Friday afternoon, Rachel was having finishing touches done on her hair and makeup, and appeared to be happy and relaxed as she prepared for the evening. Craig also seemed to be filled with an inner joy and peace as he spent time with his daughter and his father, waiting to get dressed in his suit for the evening ceremony . . .

When Lauren first reached out to me about documenting her wedding, it was planned to be an Annapolis courthouse wedding. Her family would be waiting to greet the newlyweds outside of the courthouse (as guests were still not permitted inside) and she was hoping to capture some beautiful family photos in downtown Annapolis.

Father’s Day 2020 is just around the corner. This year has certainly put a strain on small and local businesses, and there are lots of ways to celebrate Dad and keep your dollars local. While people are starting to wander out into the world (hopefully cautiously), many businesses and entrepreneurs will be feeling the effects of the COVID19 pandemic for a long time. Who we buy from now will decide who’s standing later. When we are considering our gifts for those special dads in our lives, let’s think about the small businesses from Annapolis to Baltimore (and the surrounding cities) that we want to see stick around for years to come.

Mother’s Day 2020 is fast approaching. With COVID-19 remaining a threat and current social distancing guidelines in place, it’s not possible for most of us to browse our local stores for that perfect Mother’s Day gift. Most of us are already accustomed to shopping online, so it doesn’t mean that finding an amazing Mother’s Day gift isn’t possible. But shopping local and shopping small have become even more important, given how many small businesses have needed to close their doors (if they own a storefront) or had to stop offering their services if they weren’t an essential business. There are still plenty of ways to shop Mother’s Day gifts and support your local Annapolis, Maryland businesses and fellow families.

A welcoming into the church community. A cleansing of the soul of original sin. A choice that her parents are making for her for the benefit of her spiritual wellness.

Penelope Jane, do you know how much you are already loved? You have a mama and daddy that already love their princess fiercely. You have two big brothers who are going to spend the rest of their lives looking out for you. And you, my girl, you are going to rule the world . . .

I know how hard it can be to be in the thick of things, with two toddlers running around like wild animals. I know how it feels to cry with them when we’re all having a hard day. I know what it’s like to feel like a terrible mom because I yelled because I was overtired, overwhelmed and stressed and they pushed all my buttons. I know how easy it is to forget that I am doing the best I can. I also know that I have the best job in the world as their mommy and that that can be hard to remember in the thick of things.
