Good morning everyone!
As you can see, it has been a long time since I've blogged...mainly because I have been so busy out taking photographs! But, no excuses! I promise to work harder to keep this blog more up-to-date!
On that note I have some exciting news! My website, www.tarakphoto.com, is in the process of getting re-designed and updated. Woo! I am really excited to show you all the new site once it is completed. I am completely re-doing the layout and changing out older photos for more recent ones. Heck, if you know me or have hired me lately, be sure to check it out because there's a good chance you may just find a photo of yourself on there! Stay tuned to find out when the official launch of the new site will be!
The website is just the first step of many exciting things ahead for my business this year. I now have an "official" second photographer who can shoot with me on any wedding for an additional cost. I am also now doing 100% customizable wedding packages starting at only $1,500.00! This means, couples can tell me exactly what they want or don't want for their wedding and together, we will create a package that fits within their budget and meets their wants! How cool is that?! Of course, I still have standard packages that couples can use if they don't know what they want, but they can still customize them too.
I can't wait for the start of my 2014 wedding season next month! Stay tuned for more updates!

Looking Forward to the 2013 Wedding Season in Maryland
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:
