Hi everyone!
I know it has been a long time since I've been on here to write, but I've been busy! Extremely busy! (This is always a good thing, hee-hee) Anyways, it just dawned on me that since my move, this upcoming 2013 wedding season will be my first full-wedding season in Maryland. Of course I will still travel and have weddings booked in Delaware and Virginia, but for the first time I will have an entire year of weddings in Maryland. How cool is that? Adjusting to my new home here in Germantown wasn't the easiest. But, I have learned a lot and met some great people along the way. I am proud to officially consider myself a Maryland Wedding Photographer. If you are interested in booking your wedding with me, please feel free to contact me at www.tarakphoto.com or (302) 270-7119.
Have a great week everyone!
Sincerely,
A MARYLAND Wedding Photographer :)

Photographing Fair Hill International 2012, Elkton Maryland
Hi everyone!!
Many times I am approached and asked what types of photography do I shoot the most. I say weddings and horse shows. Horse shows?!!?! I always get the hairy eyeball when I respond to that question. Probably because most people will agree that weddings and horse shows are two very different things and a strange combination. However, what you may or may not know is that photography isn't my only passion in life. I have been riding and competing horses since I was 6 years old. So naturally horse shows are something else I love to shoot.
A few weeks ago I had the privilege of shooting at Fair Hill International again for the 4th year in a row. This year I was shooting for PRO. This is a huge event and one of the biggest championships for the advanced level of eventing on the East coast. It is tons of fun and this year, bright sunshine in combination with gorgeous fall trees made for some awesome photos. Check them out below!

The Kid Cuteness Continues!! More Kid Photography for Tara K Photo
Hi everyone!
I am on a roll with kids and babies these days :) I had a blast photographing Sofia, a very active 2yr old, as she played in the park. Sometimes, when kids don't want to sit for formal photos, getting candids of them in a happy environment such as a park, are the best! Plus it's also fun for me, the photographer. Here are some shots from the photoshoot below:

Fall Photoshoot: Preston and Zayden
I know as photographers we all have our "specialties." Areas or subjects that we tend to like to shoot the most, or just end up shooting the most often. For me, it's weddings and horses/horse shows. I find myself always at one of the two. Every once in awhile I will have family portraits or senior portraits thrown in, but very rarely do I get to do kids or infants.
Earlier in the week I had the privilege of shooting Preston (1 1/2 mo.) and Zayden (10 mo.) for their fall pictures. It was so cold outside but they both were awesome! It couldn't have gone any smoother and I loved every minute of it. I think I am going to try and take more time out of my usual photography routine and shoot more kids. There's something to say about capturing the innocence of a child.
Enjoy!

Kelly & Alex: A Beautiful Fall Wedding in Maryland
Hello blog world!
As I had mentioned, I was shooting a fall wedding yesterday. Well, I wanted to let you know it was a HUGE success. Not only was the wedding and all the people in it beautiful, but the weather was perfect for shooting! It was on and off sunny but overall still very bright without those blinding sun rays. This is my favorite weather for taking outdoors photos because you still have a lot of natural light for your photos but you don't have to worry about people squinting, harsh sunlight shadows, or sun rays across faces.
The wedding started around 11am and was a beautiful ceremony with about 140 people. It was set on the quiet, serene setting of Wye Island in Queenstown, Maryland. Just lovely! Congrats again to the couple and thank you for having me as your photographer.

Fall Wedding Photography= My Favorite
Hi everyone!
I haven't posted in a little while partially due to the fact I've been so busy but also partially due to the fact that I LOVE fall weather and sitting in front of a computer is the last place I'd want to be :)
Weddings in the fall are the best! I am looking forward to my fall wedding this weekend and am eager to get started! It looks like the weather is supposed to be low 70's and partly cloudy which is actually my preference for shooting!
I want to share this great article from the New York Institute of Photography on shooting and capturing fall foliage:

I will keep you updated and post some shots after the wedding. Wish me Luck!!!!
