Frederick, MD Child Photographer

Children

Children’s Portrait Sessions are fun, relaxed, and personalized for each child.  Whether we're singing, dancing, playing a game or being a little silly, we’re all about creating a joyful experience that brings out those genuine smiles and real moments.

Sessions are available in my cozy home studio in New Market, Maryland or at beautiful outdoor locations around Frederick, MD.

Children's Portraits

Children change quickly. Not just in size, but in personality, confidence, and the way they see themselves. I photograph children from 6 months through the teen years, creating portraits that celebrate exactly who they are in every season.

Whether it’s a baby sitting up on their own, a twirling preschooler, a confident tween, or a teenager stepping into their own, these sessions are about capturing personality, emotion, and the spark that makes your child uniquely them. 

Portraits for children 6 months through teens.

Every Age. Every Stage.

Elevate her experience by using  a complimentary dress from my couture collection.  Dresses available for sizes 2T through adult large.  Styles from short and fun to long and elegant.  There's a dress to make every girl feel confident and special.

It’s not about the dress. It’s about how she feels in it.

She made my kids think they were having fun while they were taking pictures by playing games, blowing bubbles, etc. She is not only talented, but incredibly sweet and genuine too. 

Angela

We did a fun "princess" photo shoot for something outside of the box and my daughter loved it. She surly felt like she was given the royal treatment! I simply can not recommend her enough!

Melissa

Elise is so patient and great with little kids! It’s hard to get 3 under 3 to smile, but she did an amazing job! I highly recommend.

Becky

We have worked with Elise twice and both experiences were perfect! I am so happy with all of our photos.

WHAT DO I WEAR?

I have several locations that I frequently use and recommend, including seasonal options such as flowering fields. I will send you detailed information about the locations you can choose from when you schedule your session.  

You are not limited to the locations I recommend; if you have a location in mind let me know and we'll see how it will work.  Some of the most special sessions take place at a location that has special meaning to a family, including their own yard.
