And as much as we’d love to pause this time, the only thing we can do is capture it—real, laughing, loving, and loved.
Family photographer based in Southern Maryland & Charlottesville, VA
It was the best time that I’ve ever had getting my photo taken, and I don’t like my photo taken. And when she sent me the images, I can’t even decide which one is my favorite. I love them all.
She captures the relationship between me and my daughter and the joy of a four-year-old‘s eyes at the beach. I was so impressed and I can’t wait to get her to take our picture again.

Hey there! I’m Miriam.
I've always been drawn to the in-between moments, and the connection between us and the people we love the most: our friends, our family, our best friends, and our ultimate best friend we decide to spend the rest of our lives with. I'm honored to capture these relationships and absolutely love what I do.
I'm not your very best friend (you're marrying them) or your BFF (they're probably in your bridal party). I'm carrying the gown train, laughing with the groomsmen, hyping up the bridesmaids, and getting creative with the details. I'm your grounded friend when you need me and a wallflower when you're spending time with everyone else at your special day.

She took photos for my family to include myself, my husband, our 4 year old and 2 year old. She was very energetic, patient and creative. We truly enjoyed our shoot and even more enjoyed our beautiful photos. We will be using her services again and will recommend her services to family and friends. Thanks again Miriam!!!
