The party is still going strong for Allison + Nick, but I couldn't wait to get a sneak peek up for these two!

Congratulations to the Newlyweds! It was such a joy to be back at The Barn At Pleasant Acres today for my first wedding of 2024, working with some of my favorite vendors!

Big shout out to Brandon from OVR10 Productions LLC. for second shooting, to Jennifer Le Makeup for the glam, & to TJ from Invincible Entertainment for keeping the dance floor crowded all night 🎉

Some highlights from our Santa Express Experience! 🎅🏻🎄

Our express experience is a budget friendly investment, comparable to the traditional "mall Santa"- but better!

Ditch the long drives, crowded mall, the hour long wait times with the overstimilating noises. Families can purchase a ticket for a desired time and show up anytime within that hour. Little ones get the opportunity to meet Santa and have a few quick individual + family portraits. While you wait, we invite families to enjoy our hot cocoa bar, snack on a Christmas cookie or work on their letter to Santa!

Every year is a different set up, created by Jen at Blade + Blush Beauty Studio! Don't forget to add your name to our waitlist to join us next year! https://book.usesession.com/s/2YDC1SkGt

What makes our Santa experience different?

Our exclusive Santa mini sessions are the perfect way to capture luxury family portraits, or introduce your little ones to Santa for the first time. These portrait sessions are offered in a peaceful, luxurious and climate controlled studio which helps prevent little ones from being overstimulated.

From the moment you step into the studio you are greeted with a hot cocoa bar, calming Christmas carols & a relaxing waiting area until its your family's turn to meet Santa!

The best part? Our Santa is professionally trained (he went to Santa school!) and is so patient and jolly. Even anxious little ones warm up to Santas magic!

Don't want to miss out next year? Make sure you add yourself to the waiting list to get first dibs! https://book.usesession.com/s/2YDC1SkG

It's my favorite time of the year! 🎄🎅🏻

Santa portraits have all been edited and are being uploaded into galleries & sent off. We photographed dozens of families and captured hundreds of photos this weekend!

While the Santa Express galleries load, here are some sneak peeks of our luxury experience! The Luxury family experience includes a private 1 on 1 photo session with Santa AND indoor studio family portraits.

Don't want to miss out next year? Add yourself to our waitlist to get first dibs, exclusive offers, and more!

Something funky happened with my CRM (basically the backend of my entire business) and it sent a bunch of gallery delivery emails to spam or made the links undeliverable.

It also blocked a LOT of inquiry emails I just found 🫠

It's being fixed- so lots of you will be receiving emails right now with your gallery links in them again! ALL portrait sessions + mini sessions have been delivered.

I have one October Wedding + one November wedding being finished up this week, so if your waiting on a wedding gallery start checking your inbox soon!

Thank you all so much for your patience! We will be sorting through missed inquiries + additional DMs and emails tomorrow. This is the absolute busiest time of year for photographers, so please keep in mind that if Im not shooting Im editing / marketing/ setting up studio scenes or chasing after my kids. We're working long days (& nights) to bring everyone their photos well in time for the holidays!

Tis the season folks! 🎄

"Cute as Pie" first birthday portrait session for the happiest little Thanksgiving baby!

www.nataliegracephotos.com

21/11/2023

Those last few tree farm minis are exporting + uploading into their galleries.. which means they'll be hitting email inboxes soon!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I got asked by another photographer how I was able to manage keeping so many kids content enough to capture portraits without the tears and frustrated sighs of "Are we done yet?!". The answer is simple- let them play.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I tell ALL of my clients with children under the age of 10- if it's not a large milestone session, like newborn portraits, book a mini session. Their little attention spans can't last more than 15 minutes. We spend the first 5 minutes warming up, chatting about their favorite things... then we breeze through portraits disguised as games and playtime.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To all the parents stressing over holiday photos and trying to get the picture perfect shot for the annual card; just know that while those are great to have, your favorite will be the "in between" shots you get from letting the kids just have fun. The unexpected snuggles or kiss on your cheek from the toddler. Your teenager grabbing your hand and squeezing it a little extra. Your family huddled around a beautiful live tree, pretending to hang ornaments. Those are the ones I strive to capture- and the ones that years from now you'll look back and cherish the most.

I don't want to spoil any Christmas cards, so sneak peeks will be minimal for Christmas Tree Farm minis yesterday! Just know I had some super cute families & it was such a joy to work with every one of them! 🎄

Galleries are already starting to be delivered, so be sure to check your emails today!

A HUGE thank you to my families who brought hygiene products, additional canned good donations & even cash donations for the food pantry! They received digital image upgrades in their galleries and we were able to collection over 75(!!!) items to donate to the food pantry to bless some local families this holiday season. So thankful for all of your giving hearts!

There's a lot of new faces on my feed, so I figured I'd do a quick little introduction! I'm Natalie- the owner of this little photography business based in Southern Maryland, but serving clients all over the East Coast.

I specialize in waterfront weddings, classic lifestyle portraits & parenthood documentary collections. Nothing brings my heart more joy than working with couples on their wedding day and then continuing to capture their life milestones- from new homes to babies to annual family photos in our Santa Studio!

Im a 30 year old mom of 2; Aurora Grace & Sawyer James. Im a gluten free foodie, who loves nothing more than a good taco Tuesday and margarita on the rocks. I find joy in crowded dance floors, over hot cups of chai + conversations with friends, and running barefoot on the beach with my babies.

I'm so excited to be going into my 9th year as a photographer and continuing to document so many incredible stories for the people in my life. Thank you for following along on this page- and I hope to see you behind my lens soon!

Ran away to the beach one last time for these beautiful couple's portraits of Hunter & Tara. We embraced the cold & got some stunning fall colors since the trees are finally starting to change!

I love where I live! Southern Maryland is truly so beautiful this time of year.
