Baby and Maternity Photography!

I am in love with the images created by Annapolis based Bitsy Baby maternity and baby photography. The maternity photographs capture the beauty and ripeness of pregnancy in a tasteful and artistic way. The baby photographs are so pure and innocent. In black or white or color, she uses simple accessories and really captures the sweetness of a newborn baby. My personal favorite is the baby in the basket shown here. A true piece of art!

The artist, Rita, has been in the photography industry for over 15 years. She worked as a wedding photographer in Hawaii for several years before moving to Annapolis and concentrating on maternity and newborn portraits. She serves clients of the greater Annapolis, Baltimore, D.C. and Northern Virginia areas. She can also offer special travel packages if you are out of state or at a greater distance.
