All mothers know there is a certain point where you see the transition from baby to toddler. My darling Rosalie, or “Rosie,” has finally made the transition, and my heart just melted. Rosie’s first twelve months flew by because she was only born two months before COVID began. This time at home has blurred together. […]

This Alexandria Maternity Session in Jones Point Park was somewhat unplanned, but wow, am I so glad it happened. Adrianne from Beatific Visions Photography, the lead founder of The Kindred Path, reached out to me last year to join the team at Kindred Path. The Kindred Path is a community of family photographers. It has […]

There is so much to love about having your newborn session at home. I list my […]

As a newborn photograher, I desire to connect with my clients so I can photograph their authentic narrative. It is a joy to listen to the families I photograph and hear their stories. One of my favorite aspects of newborn sessions is simply listening to mothers share their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experiences. I adore […]
