What’s a family trip without those in the back wondering if we’re there yet!

Here, the big guy gathers his little friends for a trip and before long they are asking that question. Looks like he has a full load. Hopefully, they will be there soon.

Family Portraits in the Park

Holidays when families gather is a perfect time for portraits!

During Christmas the Gorhams’ 3 daughters were in town as well as additional family members.  Many pictures were taken including small groups – the parents, the sisters, the aunts, the cousins – and the whole group.

The shoot took place on Christmas eve in beautiful Buddy Attick Park in Greenbelt, MD.  Great memories were captured and it was a fun time for all including the photographer.

Engagement Photo Session can be a Fun Time

Engagement Photography

Darius and Kristi’s engagement session was a lot of fun.  We did some of the traditional shots and then while they were sitting on the floor I suggested that they pretend to play pat-a-cake or something.  Little did I know it would turn into 15 minutes of an actual pat-a-cake game and that Darius was good at it.  It was a lot of good fun and good pictures.

Your engagement photography session can be whatever you would like it to be and wherever you would like it to take place.

Congratulations on your engagement! Best wishes for many years of happiness together!

Photos Required: Children grow up so fast

Children photography

Children photography -young boy making funny faces

Children grow up so fast! One minute you have a little baby and before you know it the little one is asking for car keys.  Time won’t stand still but pictures can capture some of the moments.

Along the way we can snap pictures and can hold the memories.

Take lots of pictures of your little ones and from time to time have a professional capture those precious images.

Auntie enamored by a favorite nephew as he shows fancy dance steps.  He is equally enamored by his own moves and ability to dance.

Dance and party like a good family should

Cousins Mike and Janie had the opportunity to dance and enjoy each others’ company at a family event.  One lives up north and the other in the south.  Many times family only has the chance to get together at funerals or sad occasions.  This was at Janie’s brother’s retirement party and a good time was had by all.

I hope your family is dancing!
