As a Frederick Maternity Photographer, watching families grow over time is such a gift! Capturing your special milestones means the world to me and gives me such purpose in life and in my job. It is truly such and honor and also a tremendous gift to be hired again and again over years.

I have worked with the Aversa family multiple times since starting my photography business in 2018. Newborn photos, family portraits, a cake smash, and now maternity photos as they awaited the arrival of their baby boy! In 2018, I was trying to get my business off the ground and posted a model call for a Fresh 48 session. Andy and Jill responded and the rest is history. I have said it before and I will say it again – I get to work with the best humans! It has been wonderful meeting great people, many of whom I now call my friends.

The Voice of an Angel

They are truly the kindest people and definitely some of the coolest! Jill is an accomplished vocalist, composer, and performer and Andy is a game developer, programmer, and musician. Jill literally has the voice of an angel and I highly recommend checking out her work. She gifted me one of her CDs and I still keep it in my car listen to it frequently today!

Also, how gorgeous is this mama?! You can find dupes for Jill’s beautiful dress here, here, and here! I love how this gorgeous neutral taupe complemented Jill’s beautiful red hair!

My job as a Frederick maternity photographer allows me to work with such incredible people, and I am so honored to have captured this very special milestone for one of my favorite families!
