One Lucky Little Lady | St Mary’s County Newborn Photography

Not only is this sweet baby girl insanely cute but she really hit the jackpot when it comes to parents.  Her mommy and daddy are so smitten with her that it makes you feel good just being in the same room with them.  I’m so grateful to have been able to spend my morning with this new little family!

Magic of Childhood Mini Sessions | Maryland Children’s Photography

We are now booking special mini sessions that celebrate the magic of childhood.  Does your child have a special stuffed animal he can’t leave the house without?  Does your daughter spend her days having tea parties with her favorite dolls?  Do you have a super hero or fairy princess?  Or maybe you just want to capture your kids in fits of giggles or chasing butterflies or bubbles?  These mini sessions are all about documenting those sweet moments in your child’s life. 

Sessions will take place on Saturday, June 12th in St. Mary’s County.  (If this date will not work for you, or if you have a special location in mind that you would like to use, please contact me.  I am not limiting these sessions to this date alone).  Sessions will last 20-30 minutes and you will have your choice of a traditional printed session or digital session.  The print session is $150 and includes an online gallery with 5-7 proofs from which to chose the following:  (1) 8×10, (2) 5×7s, (1) set of wallets and a mini desktop storyboard.  The digital session is $250 and includes a cd with 5 digital negatives with personal printing release and one 5×7 print of each negative. 

I will provide an assortment of props such as super hero capes, pettiskirts, bubbles and balloons, but I highly recommend bringing your own toys or costumes from home that have special meaning to your child.  Please contact me by email (alicia@baybreezephoto.com) to schedule your session or discuss your ideas.

A Mother’s Day Gift

My morning tomorrow just opened up and I was thinking about doing something special for Mother’s Day. Soooo, the first two people who email me ( alicia@baybreezephoto.com ) will get a free mini session tomorrow morning for themselves or a friend. Sessions will take place at 10 and 10:30 in St. Marys County so the winning moms and their kids must be available for the session at that time.   The session and one 8×10 are a gift from me. Additional prints may be purchased separately. Happy Mother’s Day!!

Spring Portrait Special | Maryland Photography

Buds~$125  Includes:  session + 1 8×10, 2-5×7s and 1 set of 8 wallets

Blooms~$250 Includes:  session + a cd with 5 digital negatives with one 5×7 print of  image

Sessions will last 15-20 minutes and are for single child, siblings or an immediate (parents and children) family group.  There are a limited number of these sessions available, so please inquire as soon as possible.  Email me at alicia@baybreezephoto.com with any questions or to book a session.

Share The Love

In honor of Valentine’s Day I’d like to announce our Share The Love Sessions. Book your 2010 session and get two for the price of one. You can either schedule bothsessions yourself if you are planning on two sessions this year, keep one and give one as a gift OR split the cost with another friend or family so that you both get half off your session fee. Offer ends February 10th.

Holiday Portrait Specials | Maryland Photography

Boy, I feel like I need a drum roll.  :)   Sorry it’s taken me forever to post this.  We had a nasty cold bug in our house and it took forever to get through all five of us.  Pretty miserable couple of weeks, especially for the baby.  I’ve been getting tons of emails about my holiday sessions so I knew I had better get busy and post.  Here we go….

Future Rockstar! | Maryland Newborn Photography

You have to check out the hair on this little guy!  Was he born to rock or what?!?!

I’m not exaggerating when I say one of the cutest babies EVER, right?!?!  I was so glad when his mommy and daddy let his hair do its thing rather than attempt to tame it.  I’m sure they will be too when they look back at these photos in the years to come.  I can’t wait to play with this cutie pie again!

Back from Maternity Leave

Well, welcome to my horribly neglected blog! Oye! It’s been a while! My only excuse is that it was such a busy autumn and winter that being pregnant on top of that, it was all I could do to just keep up. I hope you’ll forgive me if I share some photos from my new little man’s newborn session. (Well, little isn’t quite accurate. He came into the world at 8 lbs. 15 oz. Yikes!!) I’d like you to meet Gabriel…

So I am back now!! Drop me an email or give me a call to book your summer sessions!! Be advised that I will be able to answer emails WAY quicker than phone calls as I don’t need to wait for a rare quiet moment to answer an email. :)

Baby Boom!!

Babies, babies, babies!!! I can’t believe how many newborns I’ve photographed over the past month. I still have a bunch of moms on my calendar who are awaiting the births of their babies as well. I guess it’s a good thing I adore photographing newborns! Here is a little sweetheart I had the pleasure of meeting recently. These are a little sneak peek for her mom and dad since I am not quite finished proofing her session yet. She was so incredibly good and so alert. I have so many great shots with eye contact from her. Not a very common thing with newborn photos. Isn’t she just gorgeous???

And look at those sweet little lips! Just makes you want to give her a big old smooch!!

In the next couple of days I will be announcing some special Spring/Mother’s Day sessions so be on the look out!
