THE
EXPERIENCE
Thanks so much for being here!
I'm Angela, a family and motherhood lifestyle photographer based out of Queen Anne's County, Maryland. My style of photography is warm, earthy and a little moody. I strive to capture not just a photo but an emotion; photos you can feel when you look back on them in years to come. I will take some shots of everyone looking at the camera, but my goal is to capture the genuine moments and natural connections that reflect this current phase in your life. Instead of constantly asking you to look at me with a forced smile, I will ask you to look into the eyes of your children that you love so much. We will have fun, play games, snuggle and capture all of the magic in-between. My sessions are laid back and stress free.
I pride myself on customer service and providing a great overall experience from start to finish. Not only do I strive to produce timeless quality photos, but I want each and every client to have a smooth and enjoyable experience from the time they inquire until the final gallery is delivered.
Part of my session experience includes access to my client closet which has an assortment of beautiful dresses for complimentary use during your session as well as full style guidance.

Client Closet
What you wear is a very important factor in creating those wall worthy photos. For this reason, I have invested in a client closet with beautiful dresses available for complimentary use during your session. These dresses are sure to add movement and photograph beautifully. I highly recommend borrowing a dress for that luxury session experience and dreamy gallery.
If you choose this option, I will bring a dress or two of your choice to your session, as well as a changing tent for you to change in.
FAQ
What is the booking process like?
Once you send me an e-mail, we will figure out a date and location (location guides are available). Once a date is chosen, I will send over a booking link with a questionnaire for you to complete and pay a 50% retainer to secure your date.
Six weeks before your session, you will receive your final invoice (which isn't due until 24 hours prior to the session) as well as a detailed session prep guide to help you best prepare for your session. The session guide includes all of my client closet options and Amazon links to my favorite wardrobe options. Every session includes full styling assistance as well as access to my client closet.
When is the payment due?
A 50% retainer is due at booking to secure your date. Six weeks before your session you will receive the invoice for the remaining balance, but payment is not due until 24 hours prior to the session. Payment plans are available upon request. Please do not hesitate to ask about a payment plan if you need one.
When and where will the session take place?
Location is key! Once I learn your ideal scenery preference through our initial conversation, I will choose a location from my pre-selected list. These are locations that I am familiar with as far as lighting and permit requirements. I do offer a location guide with all of the location options.
However, if there is a location you would rather we use instead, I am open to discussing that as well!
All outdoor sessions are held approximately 30-60 minutes prior to sunset for best lighting.
What do we wear?
Great question! What you wear is so important for those wall worthy photos.
Every session booked with me gets full styling assistance as well as access to my client closet, which features a beautiful array of dresses in a variety of sizes for mom.
Six weeks prior to your session you will receive my session guide with my client closet options, tons of examples on how to coordinate colors, as well as Amazon links to my favorite clothing items for the family. I am here to help as much or as little as needed in the styling process.
Can we bring our dogs?
Absolutely! Pets are family and are welcome too as long as they are friendly! Please let me know ahead of time so I can be sure to choose a dog friendly location.
How long does it take to receive the final edited photos?
Typical turnaround time is 2-4 weeks depending on the season, but sometimes sooner. I hand edit each and every image, paying attention to every last detail. I will usually post sneak peeks a few days after your session.
