Cherry Blossoms in Bloom

Last Spring I photographed the Cherry Blossoms in DC for the very first time, and to be honest, I really didn't like most of my shots. It was so crowded on the day that we visited, which made it really difficult to properly compose an image, much less take one without a ton of people... 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 →

Concord Point Lighthouse in May

I grew up right down the street from this Lighthouse and used to walk to it all the time as a kid. The surrounding landscape and huge promenade that sits adjacent to it today had not even been thought of back then, but still to me, it was just as beautiful. There are a thousand...

Water Lilies

  I am obsessed with the the shades of purple that I captured in this image, as well as the reflection of the water at the base of the lilies. Believe it or not it was a perfectly sunny day when I shot this, and a huge cloud came over at just the right moment to... Continue Reading →

Purple Water Lily

I captured this image on a bright summer day in July of 2018. The afternoon light cast the most amazing reflection in the water resulting in this beautiful golden bokeh. (If you don't know about bokeh, it is the background behind the subject of the photo being perfectly blurred in such a way as to... 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.

Liriodendron Mansion, Bel Air MD

Currently it is used for weddings, conferences, events and as an arts facility. Liriodendron (leer-ee-o-dendron) is the botanical name for the tulip poplar, many of which can be found around the grounds of... Continue Reading →
