studio newborn portraits | anne arundel county photographer

My photography studio in Pasadena, MD is kind of like my second home. It’s kid-friendly and gives me the flexibility to photograph newborn sessions with studio lighting as well as capturing unposed, lifestyle images. I love the mixture we have in this session!

I tend to blog a lot of images but I always want people who are considering hiring me to see the variety of images they should expect in a session. This is about half of the images I delivered!

fall mini sessions at the truck 2020

My home and backyard aren’t particularly picturesque here in little Pasadena, MD. Don’t get me wrong – I love and appreciate my home and I cherish the history that 4 generations of my family have made here but visually, it’s not extraordinary. When I started offering vintage truck photo sessions, I tried very hard to find a location that would work for my rusty old truck (that doesn’t even have a key!) and we settled on a little corner of our yard.

It photographs pretty well at just the right angle at just the right time of day but most often my clients drive past the house! They assume we’ll be in the woods or at a farm rather than just 1/4 mile off the highway in the suburbs. Now I tell them you’ll recognize our home because we fly a Pride flag.

Here’s one of my favorite truck photo sessions to date! Two husbands and their 13 year old fur baby, Sadie, made for some of the sweetest moments here yet.

sunset beach photography in anne arundel county

Exploring the beaches along the Magothy River at sunset is always such a joy and it makes for an incredible backdrop for family portraits. My style is casual and candid so having places to sit, jump, splash and spin are perfect to capture genuine joy in children of all ages. Scroll to the end to see my favorite image from this session – little people carrying their lovies are just the best.

in-home lifestyle newborn photography in Baltimore, MD

Many people come to Heartlove for posed, studio-style newborn images. Typically those happen in my Pasadena, MD studio but I can also pack up the studio and bring it to your home (a few miles or a few states away!) Every now and again I get to do more lifestyle newborn sessions, in-home. While some photographers offer stricky documenaty in home sessions, I do a little documenting and a little posing so you have the best of both worlds.
