From those earliest days at home to the beautiful changes and milestones that follow. Three chapters of a year unlike any other.This is a frequently asked question?

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

02 / The Experience, Included

Before We Begin

Personalized planning, location and timing guidance, and help coordinating your family’s wardrobe. You’re always welcome to send me photographs of the outfits you’re considering.

Your Time Together

A thoughtfully guided session, with room for beautiful portraits, individual personalities, and the unexpected moments in between.

Your Photographs

Individual family sessions include approximately 75–100 professionally edited, high-resolution digital photographs, delivered in a private online gallery. They’re yours to download, print, and share, with no required additional purchases.

A Little Further Afield

I photograph families throughout the Delaware Beaches, Eastern Shore, Annapolis, Wilmington, and Philadelphia areas, with no additional travel fees within my regular service area.

03 / A Few Things Worth Knowing

When will we receive our photographs?

Your completed gallery is typically delivered within two weeks of your session, with up to four weeks during peak seasons, depending on my editing workflow.

What time of day are sessions photographed?

Outdoor sessions are planned around the beautiful natural light of early morning or evening. Indoor sessions generally take place during daylight hours, when natural light fills your home.

How do summer vacation sessions work?

For families visiting the Delaware Beaches, I ask that you reserve two consecutive potential dates and choose either a morning or evening time frame. As your session approaches, I’ll follow the forecast and help determine the best day and exact start time.

What happens if the weather changes?

Cloudy skies can photograph beautifully, but if conditions aren’t suitable, we’ll discuss the best available alternative.

Can we print and share our photographs?

Absolutely. Your high-resolution digital photographs are included for personal printing and sharing. I’m also happy to recommend my favorite professional printing options.

05 / A Word From Maria

After nearly two decades of photographing families, one of the things I still love most is getting to know the people in front of my camera.

The lives they’ve built, the places they call home, the little personalities and traditions that make every family different. I love spending evenings along the coast together, being welcomed into homes, and reconnecting with familiar faces as families grow.

There’s something incredibly special about being trusted to preserve these chapters of someone’s life, and it’s something I’ll never take for granted.

Thank you for considering me to photograph yours.
