Chesapeake Photographer - Justine Renee

“The last time we did this, James wasn’t even walking yet…”

James, Kate’s spunky 6-year-old ran ahead of us on the beach with his brother. Kate smiled as she watched her husband join in on their antics, while I clicked my camera, capturing the father-son moment. These are the memories that matter-the ones that tell the story of love, resilience, and connection.

I see you. You’re holding everything together while your husband is deployed, juggling schedules, wiping tears, sharing laughs, and making sure your kids feel all the love in the world. In the middle of the chaos, its easy to forget to slow down and soak in these moments. That’s where I come in.

As your Chesapeake photographer, I know how much you want to remember this season of life-however messy or busy it may be. Your family’s story deserves to be seen and cherished, not just someday, but now. Let’s create images that capture your family’s beautifully imperfect moments, ones you’ll hold onto forever.
