Maryland Family Photographer | The Brunkenhoefers

I'm incredibly appreciative and flattered when any family asks for  photos. But when the Brunkenhoefers invited me to capture their daughter's first birthday, I was absolutely honored.
This amazing family has been through so much heartache in the last year, and yet they remain strong and determined to fill this world with love. You see, when mom Vera was pregnant with her daughter Lily, Dad Jason was diagnosed with a life-threatening medical condition. He spent the first half of his daughter's life in the hospital -- and the first three months in an induced coma. Just days before our scheduled session, Jason learned needed to have yet another major surgery.

For this family, these photos are more than just a birthday celebration. They are a testament to the power of the human spirit and the strength to overcome even the most difficult of obstacles.

The Brunkenhoefers chose to have their family photos taken at a location they love: The Winery at La Grange. The laid-back, kid-friendly atmosphere guarantees a relaxing day. I was especially enamored by the beauty of the winery. The property boasts a historic cabin, pasture with horses, fire pit and wooded area -- all set again a backdrop of rolling hills.  For the record, the sangria wasn't bad either :)

Spending time with the Brunkenhoefers was a joy. Little Lily stole my heart. How can you not love that adorable smile?
