As a Maryland Family Photographer, I have some favorite Maryland photoshoot locations. These are my tried-and-true spots, whether they offer a scenic backdrop, gorgeous light, or even better, both!

I hosted Christmas tree farm mini sessions this past weekend as part of The Holiday Event, and boy, were they magical! Before last weekend, I dragged my three little ones and husband Zach to Butler’s Orchard to take some promo photos for The Holiday Event. Butler’s Orchard is an amazing family-owned farm that offers fun-filled […]
