Newborn & Family Photography in Maryland
Simple, timeless portraits of your baby and the people who love them most.
Natural newborn sessions focused on connection, emotion, and preserving this season before it changes.
As a newborn and portrait photographer I like to keep things genuine. I think babies are perfect and beautiful just the way they are. Whether I’m photographing you and your baby in my studio, or your home, I prefer a lifestyle approach, no awkward Instagram poses or babies put in dangerous setups. Just relaxed, calm, stress-free session.
A Calm, Stress-Free Newborn Photography Experience
As a dad, I understand how overwhelming those early days can feel. That’s why I designed my newborn sessions to be gentle, unrushed, and completely stress-free.
All you need to do is show up.
I’ll take care of everything else.
Your baby’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priority. I follow strict safety and cleanliness practices before, during, and after every session so you can relax and enjoy the experience.

Your Newborn Session, Step by Step
Sessions in my Clarksburg studio or your home.
I prefer to photograph my newborns and families in my studio. I have 100% control over the lighting and the look. For those that can’t travel out yet, I’m happy to come to your home.
Sessions typically last 1–2 hours, allowing plenty of time for feeding, soothing, and breaks.
I’ve stocked the studio with:
Comfortable seating
Drinks and snacks
A calm, welcoming environment where you can truly relax
Every detail has been thoughtfully planned so you feel cared for from the moment you arrive.
One Day, They’ll Want To See You In The Photos Too
Not just what their nursery looked like.
Not just what clothes they wore.
They’ll want to see:
the way you held them
the way you looked at them
the love that filled those first days
These photographs become part of your family history.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Sessions are typically 45-50 minutes. Best to plan for 1-1.5 hours though to make time for cranky kids (or husbands).
-
I would bring makeup for touching up, anything for the kids to keep them smiling. Snacks and bribes for the little ones are great too!
-
Coordinated colors are best. You don’t need to match, but do coordinate. Creams, pastels, solid colors are great choices.
-
I have a few local spots that are beautiful. If you have spots that are family favorites or have an important place in your families story, I’m happy to photograph there. Keep in mind that most of DC is national park land and will require permits, no problem, but it does take some time to apply and get the permit.
-
Most of my clients are shy or anxious in front of a camera. I guide everyone through the process so there’s guesswork, and I’m not above sounding like a total dork to get kids to laugh.
-
Of course! Pets are just an important as anyone else to the family. If you want to bring the dog, or cat (that would be a first), I’m all for it.
Based in Clarksburg, I proudly serve families in surrounding communities including Germantown, Boyds, Damascus, and Montgomery County. Whether you're nearby or in the neighboring towns, I’m here to capture your family's special moments."
