Being a Maryland Newborn Photographer has been one of the greatest pleasures for me.  In the last few years I have developed this great love of newborns.  A brand new baby is so precious.  Nothing like it!  The way they cling to their mommy, the way they smell, the way they snuggle into a soft blankey.  It all is just…

Newborn photography is quickly becoming my favorite.  It’s a fierce battle between newborn photography and 1st birthday photography.  I adore both so much.  I think the thing that kind of pushes me towards newborn photos a little more than 1st birthday photos is the sweet stories behind these baby’s arrivals.  I love learning all about these pregnancies and deliveries.  Each…

I’m so excited to be writing again.  There was a period of several months where I was having MAJOR technical difficulties with my blog.  I ended up having to delete everything and restore the whole thing.  It was a big rigamarole.  Through the slow and cold season I sat for hours trying to figure out an already complicated topic…Well, complicated…
