Fun fact about me: I was born on All Hallow's Eve, October 30th, also known to teenagers everywhere as "wreck night." Growing up my friends opted for traditional birthday parties, but not me, I always chose to celebrate with Halloween parties instead. (Which has definitely carried over into my adulthood as well!) By combining the... Continue Reading →
Christmas Card Portrait Photo Shoot
I recently had the pleasure of shooting Christmas card photos for my daughter and her husband at the location where they got married, Swan Harbor Farm in Harford County! I loved photographing at this location because you have so many backgrounds to choose from! The Farm House itself is breathtakingly beautiful, but so are the... Continue Reading →

People come from all over the state to take photographs here, so this year I was determined get out there! About 2 hours before sunset I loaded up my models, (I mean family,) equipment and I...

Seeking Shade
Do you ever just want to hide away from the world, I know I do. I found this frog lounging within a tangle of Lily Pads, half in sun and half in shade, she was taking a break from the paparazzi of photographers trying to catch a great shot of her. (And from the children... Continue Reading →

Michelle’s Fall Photo Mini-Session
These images are of my daughter Michelle, who is a natural beauty. When I take portraits or head shots, I try to capture the essence of the person, not just their photograph. In these I hope you see her quiet beauty and magnificent smile, I shot them in natural light at Jerusalem Mill in... Continue Reading →
Fuchsia Water Lily
There is something about this color fuchsia that I just love. I honestly believe God is the Master Artist. This was shot using my Canon 80D, 1/3200, F6.3, 200mm, ISO 800.

Sunrise at Concord Point Lighthouse- MD
I photographed this image at the request of a charity auction who wanted a photograph that would interest a wide number of people from Maryland.
