Every princess deserves a little magic, even in unexpected places.  When I met with the Mason sisters in a sunlit field, away from Maryland’s many cities and towns, I was hoping for something magical.  Between the setting, the sisters, and their princess style, I wasn’t disappointed!

When one of your oldest friends has a baby, how do you find time to catch up? Recently, I had the rare privilege of mixing my personal and professional lives thanks to this handsome guy! On top of photographing newborn Camden, I also got to share the joy of this perfect baby with parents Carly and Conor.

I know what you’re thinking—Jessica Neumann Photography does headshots?!  While it’s not what people first think of when they picture JNP, it’s actually one of my favorite services to provide.  Especially when I get to work with clients like this local professional. Normally, I have the honor of photographing the entire family.  But when Mom asked me to take some unique headshots, I immediately jumped at the chance to do something different.

I have the distinct pleasure of photographing some of the best families around Frederick, Maryland. Not only are they up for stepping outside of the studio. But also, they’re engaging and hilarious—both on and off camera. I definitely shared some laughs with the Johnson family this past June, as we caught up on how much had changed over the past five years.

With Thanksgiving just around the corner—and holiday preparations well underway—I wanted to take the time to honor the true meaning of this celebration. To me, that’s simply saying “Thank You!” Thank you to all of the friends, family, clients, and community members who have helped to make 2019 such an amazing year.

Believe it or not, Jaxon was only 13 days old when he first came to the JNP Studio! The Baker family was looking for a newborn photographer close to their Frederick home and, luckily, they chose me. I was happy to welcome the trio this past August for what turned out to be an extraordinary experience.

Even at 10 months old, Gemma packs a lot of personality! When she came to the JNP Studio with her mom this past March, I instantly knew it was going to be a great session.  Without any encouragement from the photographer, Gemma was pointing those toes, assuming her favorite straddle position, and batting those big brown eyes.  

Although I spend a lot of time in the studio, I recently drove out to Marriottsville for a beautiful fall shoot with the Huber family.  We had met previously during baby Ellie’s newborn session here in New Market, Maryland.  So, I was delighted to visit their property and see how much had changed over the past 9 months!
