"I had such a great experience
with Jess. I love our newborn family photos and will be booking her again in the future!"
Let's imagine ten, or even twenty years down the road. How will your family look back on the memories of their early years?
Your laptop, camera roll and USB drive will not stand the test of time and I would be heartbroken to think that your images could be lost on those devices.
With one of a kind heirloom design, your family's milestones will be beautifully preserved so that you can enjoy them daily, and pass them down generation to generation. Ensuring your memories are safe and tangible is so important to us.

"Jess takes the most incredible pictures and makes it look easy!"
Beyond amazing. Jess has taken pictures of our family twice now and somehow manages to capture the best pictures of us all! Even with an ornery toddler and unpredictable newborn, Jess takes the most incredible pictures and makes it look easy!"

“She became more than just our photographer but also a dear friend.”
One thing we NEVER stressed about was our photographer. Besides taking phenomenal pictures she was so easy going, friendly and thoughtful. Often times checking in with me just to see how we were doing and how things were coming along. She became more than just our photographer but also a dear friend.

Being a newborn photographer in Maryland when it's spring and summer is extra special. Outdoor newborn season is always such a favorite of mine! This sweet family traveled from Baltimore to have their little guy's newborn photos taken in historic St. Michaels, and it was absolutely perfect.
