Niki+Dakota are two special ladies who joined with Andrew a few years back, and together they made a perfect little family. With Dakota entering her twilight season, we got together to celebrate what Niki called "just a pup and her humans doing what she loves most." . . . #thuisstudios #bzcinema #justbecause #lifestyle #annapolisvideographer #marylandvideographer #petvideographer #lifestylevideographer #annapolisphotographer #marylandphotographer #petphotographer #lifestyleph

Tagged along with Cait from Tirro Photography to see the new little someone in Parthiv+Vishruti's (and grandma's) life. Less than 2 weeks old, he's just a tiny wee thing, and during our visit, so content to look around or after a "top off" sleep, sleep, sleep. It was so comfortable to be in their company. I love the cuddles and the connections. I have to admit, I really adore just-doing-life images. They are my favorite to photograph...the authenticity is just sooooo! .

When your big sister is feeling under the weather and not sure about you invading her space just 3 short weeks ago, you just roll with it! Enjoy this sweet little family session with momma, daddy, sis and new brother making four! (Oh, and Teddy, too!) . . . #hellobaby #welcomehomebaby #family #sister #brother #newborn #babyboy #toddler #mommy #daddy #inhome #lifestyle #newbornphotographer #familyphotographer #annapolisnewbornphotographer #annapolisfamilyphotographer #marylan

It wasn't that long ago we were eyeballing the calendar as "Lil Lamb's" arrival date was nearing. The day came and went without an appearance...and then she made her debut. With previously scheduled events for us, and with a weekend of family traditions that Lamb just couldn't miss, our calendars clicked at November's end. In their lovely cozy home, Jessi+Tyler cuddled their new precious girl. Just a couple of weeks into being mom+dad, they were complete naturals...or cou

While we skedaddled off to Whitney+David's wedding, this little guy grew by leaps and bounds!  About 2 weeks old and already on his way to be...a firefighter...or???? . . . #thuisstudios #hellobaby #welcomehomebaby #newborn #babyboy #mom #dad #nursery #lifestyle #lifestylephotography #annapolisphotographer #marylandphotographer #nursery #firefighter #firetruck #pup #dog #annapolisnewbornphotographer #marylandnewbornphotographer #annapolisnewbornvideography #marylandnewbornvi

At 32 hours old, this handsome little man was so laid back, only uttering small notes of discontent now and again, and easily returning to zen.  And a charmer...a total charmer.  Just look at that face...and look how he has not only his parents, but his grandmother, already smitten by his very existence!  <3 ! . . . #thuisstudios #hellobaby #first48 #fresh48 #aamc #annearundelmedicalcenter #annapolis #maryland #newborn #babyboy #mom #dad #grandmother #annapolisphotographer

And we really mean "welcome home!"  We wondered what would happen first, baby Camden's arrival or getting into and preparing the new house...and baby Camden won out! And it was so worth waiting for Britney, Kyle, Camden + the critters to get settled into their beautiful home! . . . #thuisstudios #hellobaby #welcomehomebaby #lifestyle #lifestylephotography #athome #inhome #takemeouttotheballgame #baseball #nursery #babyboy #newborn #mom #dad #dog #cat #newfamily #thisisus #new

If mom-to-be looks a little familiar, it's because her sister, Kasey, was the first new mom in our Hello Baby! series of photography, as well as cinematography (First48). So now we sit on pins and needles waiting the arrival of baby boy. He has a beautiful midnight blue room with aviation accents and, of course, a sweet bunny waiting for him. His dad is a Redskins fan AND a new firefighter, so it goes without saying some of these images reflect what is sure to become a fami

On an overcast Sunday, Thuis paid a visit Trudy+Nelson for their video shoot. These two have an incredible amount of energy and personalities to go with it! . . . #thuisstudios #justbecause #bostonterrier #bostons #dogs #companionanimal #furbabies #furkids #marylandanimalvideographer #annapolisanimalvideographer #marylandvideographer #lifestyle #lifestylevideography

The new house isn't ready, but the baby almost is!  We took Britney+Kyle's Lifestyle Maternity session to the street, checking out the adorableness at the Lil Lamb Boutique and stopping for a cuppa at The Red Bean in Annapolis. . . . #thuisstudios #hellobaby #maternity #lifestyle #annapolis #maryland #lillambboutique #babyboutique #shoppingforbaby #theredbean #coffeeshop #maternityphotographer #marylandphotographer #marylandmaternityphotographer #annapolisphotographer #anna

Tara+Ben traveled across the globe to collect sweet Ellie to be part of their family. One month on, with dear little Alice and the dog, Moses, they are exactly the family they were always meant to be! . . . #thuisstudios #family #adoption #anniversary #elliesredroad #internationaladoption #lifestyle #lifestylephotographer #annapolisphotographer #marylandphotographer #annapolislifestylephotographer #annapolisfamilyphotographer #marylandlifestylephotographer #marylandfamilypho

Literally plucked from the street, Mahina has been with you since you were 12. You rescued Kana Bear as she shivered in the unforgiving winter cold, trying to get some warmth by pressing against a window of one of your college buildings. They've been safe and sound with you ever since...and loved by the man who came long after they! . . . #thuisstudios #justbecause #family #straycats #streetcats #rescuecats #cats #thisisus #yourlife #lifewithcats #furkids #furbabies #lifest

We photographed+filmed this little darling's First48 on Christmas Eve.  We were with them (and pup, Walter) on New Year's Eve to officially welcome her home! . . . #thuisstudios #hellobaby #welcomehomebaby #lifestyle #lifestylephotography #newbornphotography #annapolisphotography #marylandphotography #annapolisnewbornphotography #marylandnewbornphotography

Kasey+Jeff were at the inception of Thuis Studios.  They were the twinkle behind our wedding cinematography.  Now, with their own little twinkle on the way, it was natural for us to ask them if they'd be our models for our Hello Baby! trilogy: Maternity, First48, and Welcome Home Baby. THANK YOU, Kasey+Jeff.  We're so excited to meet the little miss later in the year!  <3 . . . #thuisstudios #hellobaby #maternity #lifestyle #lifestylematernityphotographer #maternityphotogr
