Could not be happier!

Barb was amazing to work with. She made us feel so comfortable both during our engagement shoot and on our wedding day. Many of our guests even mentioned how wonderful she was after the wedding was over. Not to mention, her pictures are truly works of art. You won't be disappointed if you work with Barb, it's simply not possible.

Barb has a true eye for excellence. We have never been disappointed by the magic she's able to capture from behind the lens. She even captured the most adorable pics of our pup. Life can be hectic and kids grow quickly. Taking the time to capture moments as a family are priceless. Thanks to Barb for capturing our family!!!

Working with Barb felt like working with a friend, even though we had just met. She is very open and honest, but will listen to and work with any requests you have. Our wedding was at a new venue for her, and she put in the extra effort of meeting us there, discussing background and lighting options around the property, and even planning on where the sun would be during the date and time of our wedding months in advance. We were so impressed with her photos, and plan on using her services again for future photoshoot-worthy events.

We were absolutely delighted with Barb's incredible work during our November 2023 wedding at McClintock Distilling in Frederick, MD. She captured the magic and emotion of our special day so perfectly, preserving every moment with such care and attentiveness. Her talent really shone through not only in the beautiful wedding photos but also in the engagement photos she took for us. Barb helped us pick the perfect spot for our engagement shoot, and despite us not being naturally photogenic, she made us feel comfortable and at ease, which was truly amazing. Ahead of the wedding day, she took the time to understand our family dynamics and made sure all of our requested shots were beautifully (and efficiently) captured so we had nothing to worry about during the wedding itself. Barb's professionalism and empathy were further evident when we recently needed family portraits on relatively short notice after finding out one of our pets was terminally ill. She responded with such compassion and efficiency, arranging a session that allowed us to cherish those precious moments with our beloved pet. Her sensitivity and support during this difficult time were deeply appreciated, and the portraits she captured will forever hold a special place in our hearts. We can't recommend Barb highly enough for her incredible skill, her kind heart, and quite simply, her excellent character.
