Larnell and Maria are a fun and laid back couple. Maria's parents were excited to help coordinate wedding plans and I chatted with Maria's father the most about photographs. Larnell & Maria had their ceremony locally at the Le Fontaine Bleue in Lanham, Maryland. With seven bridesmaids and groomsmen by their side, Larnell & Maria tied the knot in front of their family & friends. I worked with a very dear of mine, Leah of Gray Kammera,  to capture their ceremony & reception.  

After several long years in the healthcare field and nine children, there is no one more deserving of sweet retirement than Michael Fitzmaurice.  I recently photographed their celebration and capture their growing family, closest friends and former coworkers!  It's been wonderful seeing the Fitzies for several years now and I couldn't be more proud of my friend Ann. These lovely people are  a joy, and if you grew up in the DC area, chances are you've already met one of the nine or Mr. Fitzmaurice's several grandchildren! 

Join me in welcoming adorable baby Jack to proud parents, Terra & James!  I've been very lucky to be able to photograph these wonderful people for their maternity shoot a few months ago and got to see the bouncy baby at home! 

Introducing the long awaited Christmas maternity shoot with now parents, Terra & James! I absolutely love these two. They're hilarious and fill their home with laughter. I've known Terra for several years now and couldn't be more proud of the amazing things she's done and now building a loving family. Baby Jack photos are next! 

I've always held respect for people who can find a work out regime they love and stick to it enough to be able to own it. So when my friend Whitney, who teaches classes at Maryland Kettle Bells said the owners Jason & Yvette needed photographs for their website, I jumped at the chance. Below are some of my favorite shots. Jason & Yvette were wonderful and gave their students a ton of attention.

While we're enjoying the mild winter day, I thought I'd bring out some summer photos of Jean and baby Emily. Her adorable smile is enough to remind us of even warmer times.
