Meet Cassie

Southern Maryland’s Baby & Child Photographer

Hi, I’m Cassie—the heart behind Cassie Ackerson Photography. Based in Lusby, I proudly serve families throughout Calvert County and St. Mary’s County with heartfelt newborn photography, baby portraits, and child photography. As a mom of two, I recognize the challenges of getting your young family together for portraits. That’ why I specialize in capturing the fleeting magic of childhood—from tiny newborn yawns to joyful giggles. My sessions are relaxed, connection-focused, and designed to create timeless portraits your family will treasure for years to come.

In a world full of digital snapshots, I believe in creating art you can hold in your hands and proudly display on your walls. Each image is crafted with the end result in mind—whether it’s a stunning canvas above your fireplace or a fine art print in your child’s nursery. Whether it’s capturing the infectious laughter of a child, their curious and inquisitive expressions, or the heartwarming bond between siblings, I encapsulate these precious memories that will be cherished for a lifetime.

What Other People Say

Cassie recently did an in-home newborn session for our baby girl, and we were so happy with the experience! She was wonderful with the baby, and was so gentle and patient even though the baby wasn’t super cooperative at first. And she worked so well with our goofy toddler and preschooler as well. We love the photos and can’t wait to use Cassie again to capture more memories of our family

Bethany G.

Cassie was absolutely amazing! She captured beautiful pictures, we love every single one of them. She somehow managed to get get photos of the entire family even though my 2 year old was not cooperating. Thank you Cassie for the amazing experience and beautiful pictures!
