“I believe the best parts of family life aren’t posed. They’re felt.”

Hi, I’m Erin! An Annapolis beach maternity & family photographer for people who love the water, the outdoors, and the beauty of this season.

If you’re drawn to the shoreline, the light at golden hour, and a quieter kind of joy, you’re in the right place. I serve expecting families across Anne Arundel County and the greater Annapolis area. My sessions along the beaches of Annapolis are relaxed and unhurried. Built around comfort, connection, and the moments that already matter to you.

Where I Photograph in Annapolis

Annapolis has some of the most beautiful waterfront scenery in Maryland — and I know exactly how to use it.

My go-to spots for Annapolis beach maternity photography are Beverly Triton Nature Park and Terrapin Nature Park. Both offer open water views, soft natural light, and enough space to move around and find the moments that feel most like you.

Not sure which location fits your vision? Tell me a little about the vibe you’re going for and I’ll help you pick the perfect spot.

let’s plan your session

Erin is a kind, fun and professional photographer to work with. When I look at our family portraits, my heart is so happy to see how they turned out despite us rangling our wriggly-wiggly-worm daughter. During the session, Erin came prepared to ensure she had the attention of our daughter so she could capture her pretty face in the photos. She even made sure that my husband and I got photos of us as a couple. I would recommend Erin because her energy makes for a easy-going session where you and your family can be yourselves. We couldn’t believe the time flew by like it did because we genuinely enjoyed ourselves. We will definitely be using Erin again in the future. 🧡

Where do I start?! Working with Erin from start to finish was nothing but pleasurable. She is extremely personable and her communication through out from initial booking until receiving the final images was immaculate. During the actual session she made me feel so comfortable and confident and really listened to what I wanted while maintaining her artistic style. I love my photos and will remember them forever! If you’re wondering if she’s worth it, she is!

Erin is hands down the best outdoor family photographer in Bowie! She captured my little family so beautifully and was great with our 4 yr old. Her style is so beautiful and she knows how to get all the genuine smiles and connections -- getting family photos of us at our best, loving selves.

Got to do a newborn photo session with Erin today and it was an awesome experience. I normally hate taking pictures, and hate photography sessions, but Erin made the two hours breeze by. She was super easy to work with, knew how to get the right photo without too much effort, and was super accommodating. If you are in need of photography services, I highly recommend her.

Erin Link is amazing to work with - she's  super responsive, thoughtful, professional, and her photographs are just stunning. I'm in such awe of her ability to capture beautiful pictures. I had a maternity photo session with her and look forward to booking her in the future to capture our families moments. Her turnaround time is great and she's very reasonably priced. If you're looking to get high quality beautiful photographs - hire Erin! She is an incredibly talented photographer!!

Questions About Annapolis Beach Maternity Photography

Most people book between 29–34 weeks. That’s the sweet spot where your bump is beautifully round and you’re still feeling comfortable and mobile. I’d recommend reaching out at least 6-8 weeks before your ideal window so we have time to pick your date, location, and plan your look.

I always monitor the forecast closely. If weather becomes an issue, we reschedule — no fees, no stress. Annapolis weather can be unpredictable, so I build flexibility into every booking.

Flowy dresses in soft neutral or deep earth tones photograph beautifully against the water and sand. I have a client closet with maternity-friendly options. And before your session, we’ll connect over a Google Meet styling consult so you feel totally prepared and confident walking in.

Most sessions run about an hour. That gives us enough time to move through a few different spots, try different poses, and catch the best of the golden hour light without anyone feeling rushed.

Absolutely! Siblings are so welcome. There’s something really special about documenting this moment as a whole family, not just the bump. Kids tend to do great outdoors where they have space to move around and just be themselves. We’ll work with their energy, not against it.

Nope! I’m based in Bowie, MD and serve families across Anne Arundel County, Howard County, Prince George’s County, and beyond. I’m happy to travel for the right session.
