The Capture Sweet Moments Blog

When Meg and I talked about locations for her family photos, we talked about places that she and Andrew enjoyed spending time, and Forward Brewing in Eastport, Annapolis, came up as one of their favorite date night places. Meg’s parents live in Eastport, on the waterfront, and we decided that their home would be the […]

Rajeev and Jacque raised their sweet family of three girls, Eshani, Anjulee and Devina, in New England. When all three daughters moved to Maryland, and Eshani started her own little family, Rajeev and Jacque decided it was time to relocate to be closer to their girls. I met this wonderful family at Rajeev and Jacque’s […]

It’s been a joy to watch this family grow over the years. I first met them when their oldest son, Will, attended the same preschool as my kiddos, Magothy Cooperative. Will was their only child at the time, but it wasn’t long after he graduated that Nicole contacted me about newborn photos, as they had […]

Sometimes we plan on getting around to something for a while, but life gets busy. With a 16 year old, a 14 year old, 11 year old and 5 year old, it isn’t getting any less busy, but Michael and Yanet decided that it was time to make that family photo session happen. So on […]

I first met Kearney, Brent and Aiden at Kinder Farm Park last year, when they came for my Limited Edition Fall sessions. We had so much fun together that we decided to extend the fun this year with a full family session at their beautiful home on the water in Annapolis, Maryland. I came to […]

One of the very best parts of what I do is watching the families and the children that I photograph grow and change. Lizz has been trusting me to capture her family photos for 7 years now. Which means I’ve been watching, and documenting, her sweet girls, Bella and Natalie, as they grew from toddlers into young women. And I’ve watched the love that Lizz and Richard share and shower on their girls help make them into the sweet and confident ladies that they are right now . . .

Meredith and Fabrice have been inviting me into their home in Washington, D.C. to capture their family photos for years, and it’s been an honor to watch as their family has grown and changed over those years. From the days of their first maternity session with their 3 rescue pups to their life as parents of two, every photo session has been about capturing life as it really is, in an environment that is comfortable for the whole family.

When your family only gets together twice a year, you must take the time to document it! I was overjoyed when Stephanie called me to book an extended family session while her parents and brother’s family would be in town. Being December, we did a lot of watching the forecast and discussing locations and I think all were happy that we settled on Downs Park in Pasadena, Maryland as the perfect backdrop for their family photos.

Andrea, Elliott, Mac & Lulu first came to see me at the Christmas tree farm last year, where we played amongst the trees. This year, they decided they would like for me to come to them for a relaxed and fun backyard session, that included grandparents, Mac & Lulu’s Nonna & Shaw . . .

Lizz, Richard, Bella and Natalie have been coming to me for family photo sessions since the very beginning of my photography journey and I am so grateful that I have the opportunity to document their lives. The girls are so full of life and joy that happiness fills anyone in their presence. The adoration that they have for their mom and dad is reflected right back to them; you can see the love in the whole family’s eyes . . .
