Professional photographer Blair Blanks photographs contemporary, modern, fun, emotional portraits. She is a newborn photographer, maternity photogrpaher, kid photographer and family photographer. She is a professional photographer of babies, newborns, infants, children and pregnant women in her studio in downtown Towson (just a few blocks south of the Towson Town Center Mall). Her studio is convenient from downtown Baltimore, Timonium, Owings Mills, White Marsh, the DC area as well as many other areas in Maryland. Blair serves families with children and babies from the greater Baltimore area, including Baldwin, Catonsville, Cockeysville, Dundalk, Essex, Freeland, Glen Arm, Glen Burnie, Glyndon, Gwynn Oak, Halethorpe, Hunt Valley, Hydes, Kingsville, Lutherville Timonium, Middle River, Monkton, Nottingham, Owings Mills, Parkton, Parkville, Perry Hall, Phoenix, Pikesville, Randallstown, Reisterstown, Rosedale, Sparks Glencoe, Sparrows Point, Towson, Upperco, Upper Falls, White Marsh and Windsor Mill. Her portraiture specialties do not include weddings or pet photography; familiy photography is offered at the studio, however, and Blair always photographs newborn babies with their parents. She presents her images in color as well as artistic black and white. She also offers limited natural light photography (outdoor photography) at locations around Baltimore/Towson.
Maternity sessions are usually photographed at about 31 -36 weeks. Pregnancy studies are done in a very subtle, tasteful manner. Blair uses her knowledge of lighting to "sculpt" with shadows and light, creating flattering images that beautifully convey the emotion surrounding the impending birth.
Newborn photo sessions ideally are photographed before the baby is 14 days old. While Blair's schedule fills quickly, she does maintain flexibility in her calender to accommodate newborn babies. It is very important to photograph brand-new babies in those key first days while they still will hold the "bendy" positions they did in the womb. Because childbirth can be unpredictable, Blair will reserve a date for your baby's birth based on your due date but will revisit the booking date/time within three days of the birth.
Older babies can still be photographed successfully; however the images will have a different look and feel than those captured before 14 days of age. The babies in Blair's newborn gallery are all younger than three weeks old (most are under two weeks).
Blair is not currently in need of any apprentices or employees, and she is not offering any photography classes/workshops at this time.
