This session is all about you spending quality time with your fam bam. I’m simply there to document your beautiful story and capture the deep connection you have with one another.

I have listed a few of my absolute favorite locations below…but first, let’s take a few moments to think about what your family likes to do for fun

Maybe your family is…

  • Adventurous - exploring the nearby creeks and forest trails

  • Playful - rolling in leaf piles in your front yard

  • Easy going - strolling along a nearby lake at sunset

  • Laid back - enjoying a family picnic at your favorite park

  • Fun - grabbing cocoa at your local cafe and hitting the farmers market

The point is - the most beautiful, meaningful images I create for your family are those of you genuinely having a good time together. 

And now, here few of my FAVORITE lifestyle family photography locations in Montgomery County, Maryland:

  • Wheaton Regional Park - Wheaton, MD

    So many great options here - forest trails, a small lake, and bridges. There is also a carousel, a train, and an awesome playground. This is by far the most popular location among my family clients.

    An absolutely beautiful setting at golden hour, especially with the fall colors surrounding the lake.

    Several great spots along the trail in Takoma Park and Silver Spring. Great for creek stomping or a casual family stroll along the winding trails and bridges.

  • Your Home Sweet Home

    Home is where the heart is. Some of the best memories you have will be how you spend your time at home with your family.  Splurge on some sprinkle donuts and get cozy inside, or head out to the yard to play in the leaf piles.
