Your family moments are unique, and my Baltimore Family Photography sessions are designed to beautifully capture them, creating memories you can revisit for years to come. Life moves quickly, and those in-between moments: the laughter, the small gestures, the genuine connections, can slip away faster than we realize. That's why our sessions are crafted to celebrate you and your loved ones, ensuring these memories are captured in the most authentic, heartfelt way.
I strive to provide an immersive experience, where each detail is thoughtfully prepared so you can simply focus on being present with your loved ones. Sometimes planning can feel overwhelming deciding on a location, choosing outfits, or even figuring out how to keep everyone comfortable during the session can be daunting. But that’s where I come in to make it all seamless and enjoyable.
Find out everything that is included in your session and what it looks like to work together in the full pricing guide listed by session type below.

For moms navigating pregnancy or the postpartum period, I create a space that’s relaxed and respectful. This is your time to capture precious moments with your little ones, and I’m here to celebrate you in all your beauty.

Body Positivity and Comfort

For newborn sessions, I understand that not everyone has a picture-perfect home, especially with a new baby! My studio offers a home-like setup with cozy options like a bed or crib, so you get that “in-home” feel without the need to tidy up or reorganize.
Home-Inspired Studio

PREPERATION GUIDE
First, we will talk via email and see if we are a good fit and if I am available!
Each family has their own vision for a session. I want to make sure both your vision and my style of photography meet to make beautiful images you will cherish forever.
Email me (Julie) and lets start talking about what you've got in mind for your session.
Say Hello
Step 1 of 5
After we go over the details, schedule your session ASAP. Weekends are the most sought after sessions times for families so available dates can be limited. This isn't meant to pressure you but it is always best to book early.
A $200 retainer is all you need to get on my schedule. You don't have to pick a set number of images until you receive your gallery. That way you only are paying for the images you love! Oh, and the retainer will go towards your collection!
Book Your Session
Step 2 of 5
After you book a session you will be receiving a few things from me:
-Preparation guide
-Family Questionnaire
-Styling link
-Client closet Access
This will help me get to know you and will help you be prepared and looking great for your session!
Planning Your Session
Step 3 of 5
Woo-hoo! Its picture day! Your outfits are planned, all your questions have been taken care of. All you need to do is simply show up and show off your beautiful family! I will guide you into poses and give you fun prompts to get your family interacting and to get natural smiles and laughs.
Your Session Day
Step 4 of 5
After our session I get right to work on editing your gallery. You will receive your gallery electronically within 2 weeks from our session date. Trust me, I am just as excited to show you as you are to see them!
I can't wait to deliver your photographs and hear how much you love them!

"Working with Julie was an amazing experience! She was incredibly accommodating and helpful when scheduling. So responsive and quick! During the session, she was great with our baby girl and even more amazing with our dog! We are so happy with all the photos and the final edits. The turnaround time was incredible. 10/10 would recommend!!"

"Julie was an absolute joy to work with for our newborn shoot. She was very responsive from start to finish, kind and just put me at ease during the shoot when my baby just wanted to fuss. Julie also provided us with her guide to prepare for the shoot, which was incredibly helpful in making us look more “put together” in our photos."

She really got to know us as a family and perfectly captured this special and magical time of our lives. The photos and video are works of art that I'll always cherish. Thank you, Julie!"

"Julie is without a doubt one of the most skilled photographers I’ve ever worked with! She did both my newborn shoot and my maternity shoot and my friends and family were blown away. I’ve had so many people say that my maternity shoot photos could be on the cover of a book they are that impressive! My newborn shoot was really tough because my baby would not stop crying the whole time, but Julie still got the most amazing pictures and made it seem like nothing out of the ordinary happened at all. I would recommend her to anybody in a second. Not only is she extremely skilled in what she does but she is incredibly professional, attentive, and kind. I can’t say enough great things about Julie and her business!"

"Julie did a wonderful job with my maternity/family photos! When I reached out to Julie initially, she was quick to respond, helpful in answering all of my questions, and accommodating with arranging a place and date/time for our photoshoot. We asked Julie to do our photos at our home -- she gladly trekked around our property up hills and through hay and soybean fields to get us the "harvest season" feel we wanted for our photos. She perfectly captured our vision! She sent us a sneak peek the following day and we were blown away. The rest of the pictures she sent later that week were just as beautiful. We plan to do annual photos for our family greeting card and can't wait to ask Julie to photograph our family again!"

"We loved working with Julie for our maternity and newborn photos. From her client closet (I was super grateful to not have to buy a long maternity dress for a one-time use) to her prompt replies to her honest, open, reasonable pricing to her thoughtfulness in making sure we did the shots I had requested in her pre-session surveys (I tend to get a little forgetful and/or intimidated making those requests in the moment, so I loved getting to think through things before and then know Julie would make sure it happened) she's truly wonderful to work with. Sessions didn't feel rushed, and we got our GORGEOUS photos back earlier than expected! Strongly recommend getting maternity and newborn photos to document the special time and strongly recommend Julie to do it!"

"Julie was AMAZING during our newborn session. She was very quick to respond and set up a session with. During the session she was very professional and patient with our rambunctious 15 month old, and patient with the new baby when she got fussy. The pictures turned out so amazing, and if we every need a photographer in the future, we will definitely be reaching out to her."

"I have had a fabulous experience with Julie as our family photographer! From maternity photos, mommy and me photos, and family photos with grandparents, Julie was amazing. I'm plus size and was very nervous about feeling beautiful and having a 'nice bump' and not looking fat for my maternity photos. She provided and let me try on a few maternity dresses, listened to what I wanted, and gave me lots of tips on how to stand and pose. I have loved all of the results and am so thankful for Julie's down to earth personality! Also she remembered that our nursery theme was moon and stars and she had moon and star cookies made for us when she delivered our photo package. She goes above and beyond for her clients!"

"Julie did our fall/winter maternity shoot! It was so easy to book our session with her, and she even provided dresses for me to try on and use if I wanted to. On the day of the shoot, she was so great and told us exactly what she needed to get the best pictures. She also wore a mask the entire shoot and made sure we weren’t too close to others at the photo location when our masks had to be off. Our pictures turned out great, and I would highly recommend her to other expecting moms!"

"Julie's down to earth personality and eye for photography and detail will complete any session. I worked with her for an hour for my maternity shoot on a hot day in May 2020 and it was a blast! It felt natural and comfortable just chatting away posing while she did her thing. She gives great direction on poses and even let me include my dog, Murphy! 5 STARS- Highly Recommend!"

"Julie did a wonderful job! We are so pleased with the photos and she was great to work with. She handled working with our active toddler so well. She was professional and adaptable. She came prepared to the venue, had done her own research for shoot locations and made use of the lighting. Thank you Julie!"
