Carly, Matt & Maeva first came to see me during my Limited Edition Christmas Truck sessions last November and they had a big announcement to make . . . Maeva was going to be a big sister!
Hillary and Matt are excitedly awaiting their first baby and they were eager to document this milestone in their lives. They were searching for classic, traditional maternity photos and they wanted a studio session, so we secured The Lightbox Studio in Annapolis, Maryland.
When Heather, Adam and Addison joined me at Downs Park in Pasadena, Maryland on a September evening, the weather was gorgeous, the park was quiet and Addison brought all of her energy! We met up to capture maternity photos for their second little one, who is due to join us late October . . .
The first time Jen and Will visited John Downs Memorial Park in Pasadena, Maryland was for their maternity photos with me, in January of 2021. Now, Downs Park is a place they enjoy frequently. Isla, (who is still a firecracker!), takes them on baby led hikes, enjoys the playground (a lot) and is definitely a beach baby.
For sweet baby sister’s maternity photo session, we explored the meadows, enjoyed the natural beauty of Downs Park and played in the sand . . .
Jen & Will are an incredibly sweet couple, dedicated to each other, to their work and to this new baby that they are bringing into this world. They met in Monterey, California, in Calculus class while attending Naval Postgraduate School, which they laugh about after being married for 8 years. But as anyone who has lived the military life can tell you, being married for 8 years does not mean being together for that long. There has been a lot of long distance, long drives home for the weekend while living in an RV in Norfolk (for Jen), and just generally making it work the Navy way.
Kandace has to be one of the sweetest women I know and I feel so blessed to have met her a little over a year ago at a mom’s night out. When we made some time to hang out this summer, I was absolutely delighted when Kandace told me that she was pregnant with her second. And then I was more than honored and elated when she asked if I would consider doing her birth photography . . .
