A lifestyle maternity session at home in Montgomery County, Maryland

Some families you photograph once. Others become something closer. The Senter family is the kind you stay connected to—through seasons, milestones, and little messages that carry big news.

Zarah’s text caught me completely off guard in the best way: “We’re expecting again!” And not long after, the follow-up—“Just one baby this time!”

This in-home maternity session in Montgomery County, MD featured toddler twins, grandparents, and a joyful nod to baby brother on the way. Calm, playful, real.

Still dreaming of this beautiful Stone Tower Winery wedding

Madeline & Kenneth's intimate luxury wedding at Stone Tower Winery, is where garden-inspired florals and sophisticated details create wine country elegance. From the lakeside ceremony to candlelit farm tables beneath grapevine installations, this celebration captures editorial-style moments in a bre...

"I don't believe in love at first sight, but I do believe in love at fourth sight."

Oh these two had a meet-cute made for Hollywood and a wedding day Disney perfect. But more than that, it's real. The hard effort they put in to a relationship that had had to contend with military obligations. It's the fairytale blended with "if they wanted to, they would." And they did.

Plus they are the final 2023 wedding! 12 hours and over 7,000 shutter clicks (and I had to find 10 images for a sneak peek). Whew! What an end to the wedding season!

We have made it to the finish line! I started the year with a Navy wedding and that's how we are ending the 2023 season!

Alex and Gabe have flown all the way from California to celebrate with their friends and family and I'm so ready. It's going to be a long day - 11 hrs of coverage but I've got the whole team today.

Let's have a little groom appreciation moment.

On the wedding day I'm trying to do two things with the groom. Deliver classic portraits that stand the test of time and highlight the Grooms personal experience of the day. And be fast so that he can relax and have fun (ok, maybe that's three things).

I love it when there are some activities like pool or golf or poker that all the guys can do together. Highlighting male friendship, and the role your favorite guys play in your life is just as important as any other detail. We knew Connor's hotel had this great pool table so we built some extra time into his timeline specifically so we could take the Groomsmen there and have a little fun.

That's the key- being intentional about making time for these moments!

And shoutout to my great second shooter Rachel who took most of these portraits while I was with Katrina.

Magical might be a way to describe yesterday's wedding. Romantic, elegant, and a hell-of-a-good-time, might a few more words that come to mind.

Madeline and Kenneth's day blended the timeless and the trendy, weaving in a romantic late September color palette. Joined by Senator, their beloved weimaraner, their Stone Tower Winery wedding was perhaps, simply perfect.
