Hi – I’m Allison, a maternity and newborn photographer in Bethesda, Maryland.

I work with families all over Maryland and Northern Virginia, and offer sessions in many locations including Montgomery County MD, Arlington County VA, and Fairfax County VA

The Question is not what you look at, but what you see.
-Henry David Thoreau

My favorite images capture the tranquility amidst the highs and lows of motherhood, where we revert to our sincerest selves. As your photographer, my hope is to make art of the beautiful ordinary, so that in time, those moments that seem mundane and routine will be remembered and yearned for.

I have a thing for the type of people who like the feel of a crisp and chilly morning, the kind who are moved by the isolation of watching an immense night sky, and the ones who have a soul-stirring nostalgia for something they’ve never known.

If you are a yearner, a feeler, and a do-er, then you’re my people. If you’re also a fan of dogs, gin, and dark humor or dad jokes, then we’d probably be friends.

A maternity or newborn photography session may feel like a daunting task, but don’t worry – As your maternity and newborn photographer, I’ll help you every step of the way. Your session will be a safe space for your family to truly be themselves, free of judgment and pressure. I’ll guide you through prompts and instructions to help you focus on the moment, your surroundings, and your interactions with your loved ones, for images that portray the unique beauty of your familial connections, and give you a visual place to return when this season of your lives has passed.

1.

Check out my portfolios and pricing for the session(s) you’re interested in – Maternity info can be found here and Newborn info can be found here. If you have questions, you may wish to check out the FAQ. Then get in touch!

2.

Get in touch! The best time to have your maternity session is around the 32-35 week mark. For newborns, it’s best to do the session around 3-15 days of age. I encourage booking at least 4-6 weeks ahead of time to ensure availability and allow time for planning.

3.

Complete your booking by filling out the (digital) paperwork I’ll send you. Your booking is complete when I receive your retainer and signed session agreement. We’ll also set up a time for your planning call.

4.

During your session,
we’ll begin with some standard, straight-forward poses, then work into eliciting more emotion. I use a series of prompts rooted in a grounding practice to have you feeling at ease, as well as connected to and enjoying the moment.

5.

After your session, you’ll receive a link to your private online gallery. For the keepsake package, your images will be fully edited and ready to download. For the basic or classic package, you’ll be able to select your images which I will then edit and place back into the gallery for you to download.
