Sunflower Sillies! | Sunflower Field Photography; Rocky Point Creamery – Tuscarora, MD

Thursday, August 17, 2023

I love, love, love these cuties so much. They’ve grown a ton since our last session, so I was super excited to see them again! There were a lot of pollinators at the sunflower field, but we took a minute to learn about those fluffy little bumblebees so Addy and Nate were more comfortable being so close to all of our buzzy friends. Leave it to me to make bees cute! We also found what I think is literally the largest sunflower I’ve ever seen! We had such a blast laughing together in the sunset and I think this session should go in the dictionary under SUMMER.

Rookie Of The Year! | Cake Smash Photography; Frederick, MD

Tuesday, June 27, 2023

The fastest six months ever have passed since Jonathan was here for his sitter session! I didn’t mind it though because he was such a little sweetie and his parents are the BEST. This time they brought an amazing traditional outfit for him to honor his dad’s Nigerian heritage and also celebrated Jonathan being born here with the most American themed cake smash ever: Baseball! What a lovely combination of cultures in one session. It was so fun tickling his toes and playing with balloons. We saw all four of those adorable teeth he’s grown since I’ve seen him last and then he used those teeth to chomp on his birthday cake! I already can’t wait to hang out with these three again soon.
I’m so glad I could celebrate and capture Jonathan’s special first birthday!

Here’s the before and after of cake smash. I love how a balloon ended up in the cake by the end! LOL

A Dear Family | Family Photography; Frederick, MD

Wednesday, June 14, 2023

What an absolute treat it is to have the whole family together! And I do mean the WHOLE family. Not only are some of these folks my dear friends, but I’ve hung out with, or had family sessions with almost all of these guys at different times. It was so much fun to watch all the kiddos running around together and see the cousins laughing and catching up. It was a whirlwind of smiles amid the lovely orangey sunset (what happened to be the parting gift of the Canadian wildfire we felt the effects of earlier this week.) We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful evening for this big beautiful gathering!

Violet! You’re Turning Violet! | Cake Smash Photography; Frederick, MD

Wednesday, May 3, 2023

Oh my gosh you guys! Fastest year ever. Last time Violet was here, she was just a sleepy potato and now she’s walking around, investigating everything, and working on saying big words like Balloon! We had so much fun in the studio the other day. I’ve seen a lot of different reactions to first birthday cakes, but eating it with a fork was a first! I love how there were three colors in her cake, but she ended up mostly purple in the end. I couldn’t help but catch a sweet post-bath mama snuggle to wrap up the session. I always love when these three hang out and I feel so happy looking through these, so please enjoy Violet’s cake smash session!
