Family Portraits, Holiday Portraits

I can’t say enough about this wonderful family! I photographed Courtney Bello Bishop’s wedding in 2006 at Ladew gardens in Monkton MD and have been photographing various events for her mom Regina’s business, The Monogram Shop in Baltimore ever since then. I have watched all the kids in the family get bigger, including Courtney & Matt’s now 3 kids and I was thrilled when she asked me to do some family holiday shots this past December. Courtney has 1 sister, Regan and 5 brothers. One of her brothers works at a horse farm in Sparks Glencoe, MD so we decided to do them there…what an amazing location! We planned ahead and tried to keep each family color coordinated which makes such a big difference with family pictures.  I was a bit obsessed with Courtney’s daughter’s red cowboy boots – but who wouldn’t be, look how cute they are!! I could have done a whole series on those boots alone! I love how they turned out! Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
