I’m a natural light photographer based in Maryland, where I’ve been a native for the past thirteen years.

I love doing colorful, playful sessions that feel less like a posed time and more like a good time (candids are my personal favorites).

Because if we photograph everyone we care about, we’ll always have part of them with us.

The last thing I want you to be stressed about is the photographs—that’s my job. We're just spending some time together, getting some pictures in the meantime.

The result? A gallery of warm, honest images that feel true to you and your family.

Wassup!

I'm Miriam

I'm all about...

We're going to get all the photos we need, and I'll probably end up with more photos than we need. So, we'll always have enough time so everyone feels comfortable. For parents who have neurodivergent children: I work with neurodivergent children all the time.

Chilled & Unrushed

I meet your family exactly as you are—there’s honestly no pressure to be anything but yourselves. (We all have our moments.) I always plan to adjust my plans during each shoot with every family because every family is different. If there’s a moment we you wanna switch things up, we'll switch things up.

HONESTY & KINDNESS

Your photoshoot should be a good time! I love kids running around, jumping, twirling, or climbing trees if there’s a good one nearby. Your whole photoshoot experience should feel easy, relaxed, and genuinely fun. If your kids are talking about the shoot afterward, we did it.

Play

I’ve been working with families—and specifically with kids—for the past ten years at summer camps, music lessons, choir concerts, kids parties, and community events. I regularly photograph events for the Neighborhood Creative Arts Center, a music and arts center in Charles County, and capture weddings with TLIC Media, a wedding videography and photography company based in Fredrick, Maryland.

On Thursdays, I’m volunteering as the co-conductor for Children’s Voices of Southern Maryland, where I’m outwitting all my choristers and building my loyal following of singers-in-training. These kids range from 3–15+, neurotypical to neurodivergent, and just about every skin tone. We always have good times together.

"Miriam is an absolute joy to work with"

—Jonathan Alexandre

Miriam is an absolute joy to work with, and my wife and I are so grateful for her. For us, photo shoots are more than just pictures—they are emotional, forever memories. Trusting someone to capture them is no small thing. And that’s why we will always call Miriam.

Miriam does such incredible work. She captures so many great shots in a session. She has extraordinary talent and is so attuned to every detail. We like her work so much that we’ve literally planned some of our life’s most important moments around her photography.

If you have the opportunity, do everything you can to hire her. Your memories deserve to be captured by the very best—and Miriam truly is the best.
