Miss Bella {18 days new} | Southern Maryland Newborn Photographer

Miss Bella Rose graced the world with her presence on March 1, 2013.  All 7lbs of her.  

When I met Bella for the first time my first thought was "Oh my goodness, she's tiiiiinnny!!"  Considering the newborn I have recently been around was my 9+lb daughter, there's no wonder I thought she was itty-bitty.  

We were able to capture a few images of Miss Bella during the 4 hour long session.  But she was wide awake and had a different agenda than we did.  She was busy checking everything out and we just wanted a few sleepy pictures.  She also would have much rather stretch her arms and legs out than be tucked into a swaddle of any kind.  She surely gave me a run for my money!   The second time I arrived to finish up Little Miss' session, she was ready for us.  She slept like a dream, which was surprising considering she was over a week older than she was when we first met each other.  ;)  

Welcome to the world, Bella!  I feel totally honored that I was the one to capture your first days.  You're absolutely gorgeous dawling!  

Spring Family Lifestyle Mini Sessions - Announced! | Southern Maryland Family Photographer

How exciting is this?!?  I know I'm super stoked!  

This years spring family mini sessions are going to be AMAZING.  Do you want to know how I know that?  Because I've been blessed to team up with Southern Comfort Berry Farm located in Bushwood, MD - who have so graciously agreed to allow us to use their farm as the location for these sessions. 

When you think of Spring's arrival, what comes to mind?  Warmer weather, the shining sun, new life, fresh air.  That's what I think about!  And this year I plan on welcoming Spring with open arms.  So offering a family mini session while picking fresh, locally grown strawberries and enjoying the farm animal petting zoo was my way of opening my arms to usher Spring our way.  Not only will you be allowing me to capture special memories for you and your loved ones, but you'll also be supporting a local farm.  And I'm definitely a strong believer in supporting our local small businesses.  :)

The date we chose for this years mini sessions was chosen for two separate reasons.  1 - It'll fall during the peak time of year to pick local strawberries (YUM!).  And, 2 - it's around Mother's Day!  So bringing mom out to pick strawberries, make memories with her family and have a beautiful keepsake of her special weekend will ensure that she feels the day was made to celebrate her.  

Here are the details: 

Where:  Southern Comfort Berry Farm, Bushwood, MD 
When:  Saturday May 11 & Sunday May 12
What you'll receive:  a 30 minute family lifestyle mini session featuring strawberry picking and enjoying the farm animal petting zoo, images burned to a custom designed DVD and a FREE 16x20 canvas print featuring an image of your choice from your session (canvas print is a $90 retail value!), and a custom designed Facebook Timeline Cover image

Additional information:  A Facebook sneak peek of your images will be made available so you can share them with friends and family almost instantly.  Feel free to tag friends and family on your images and use as your Facebook profile photos!  Any berries that are picked by you during your session will be your responsibility to purchase.  Your images will be edited and burned to a custom designed DVD and then delivered to your home by mail within a week of your session.  Once you decide which image you would like as your canvas print image, please contact me ASAP so I can place your order.  Please arrive promptly to your session.  If you have to cancel, please give me no less than 24 hours notice.  A $50 retainer is collected to book your time slot.  If your retainer is not paid in 24 hours after booking, your slot will be given to someone else.  The remaining payment due on your session is to be paid at the time of the session.  Retainer can be paid online at www.aadamsphotographblog.blogspot.com under the 'Payment' tab.  No payment information is collected or shared, as this is a secured site.  All major debit and credit cards are accepted.

Mrs. C. Alicea | Southern Maryland Portrait Photographer

When Cami got in touch with me a couple weeks ago to tell me that her birthday was coming up and she wanted some portraits done for herself, I knew we needed to start planning her session right away!  Cami has become a friend of mine and I had the honor of having coffee with her right after our session.  The planning was in the works and knowing we had a short amount of time to work with (her birthday was coming up, after all) we decided that a sunrise session on the water at Solomons Island would be more than perfect.  And after freezing our butts off at 6am in what felt like 20 degree weather, that coffee we grabbed was much needed!  Hahaha.  

Happy birthday to a woman who is beautiful inside and out!  

I had such a great time taking your portraits, Cami!  Thank you so much for spending your morning with me.
