Your Child Photographer

Child Photography in Southern Maryland That Celebrates Personality and Connection

Childhood is filled with wonder, curiosity, and fleeting moments that deserve to be remembered. I am passionate about capturing the essence of who your children are in this season of life through timeless, beautifully crafted portraits that feel both natural and meaningful. With a focus on child photography for families in Lusby, Calvert County, and throughout Southern Maryland, my goal is to create images your family will cherish for years to come.

When you choose Cassie Ackerson Photography, you’re choosing years of experience working with children of all ages and personalities. I understand the unique rhythm of photographing kids and know how to create an environment that feels comfortable, engaging, and fun. Each session is thoughtfully customized around your child’s interests, temperament, and stage of life, allowing their individuality to shine through in a way that feels authentic and unforced.

The most meaningful portraits happen when children feel at ease. Sessions are designed to be relaxed and enjoyable, giving space for genuine expressions, natural smiles, and quiet in-between moments to unfold. From carefully chosen locations and styling to intentional lighting and composition, every detail is considered to create portraits that tell a story and evoke emotion.

Safety is always at the forefront of my work. As a professional child photographer with specialized experience working with young children, I follow best practices to ensure a secure, calm environment during every session. Your child’s comfort and well-being are always my highest priority.

Your images are meant to be experienced beyond a screen. I offer heirloom-quality prints, albums, and wall art designed to showcase your child’s portraits in a way that feels intentional and lasting. These finished pieces become part of your home and your family’s story—artwork meant to be enjoyed today and passed down for generations.

Whether you’re celebrating a milestone, updating family portraits, or simply preserving this season of childhood, I would be honored to work with your family. I invite you to explore my portfolio and read client testimonials to see the joy, connection, and personality captured in each session.
