“Photography is a language more universal than words.”

Portraits & Head-shots

You, your life, your family, they’re all art. No one believes that more than KW Photography & Design except maybe those who’ve allowed us into their lives to capture their most treasured moments.

Photography is our passion. Everything we do is to provide our Frederick county and neighbors with exemplary service and priceless photographic keepsakes. We’ve been doing this for over 15 years, a local, family-owned photographer who loves to help capture the magical moments of your life. That passion is reflected in every aspect of our craft. We strive to create an unparalleled experience for you and help you make memories, while we capture them. We offer a full range of portable studio settings for on-location photo shoots to give you exactly the portrait you desire; including printed photography. We’ve rekindled a long love affair with physical pictures and we want to share it with you. Let’s face it, a digital picture for social media is fine for that moment, but it simply can’t deliver the impact of a well-composed, professionally crafted portrait.

We’re honored that so many people trust us to make them look their absolute best. Our passion is capturing the wondrous moments of your life, and capturing the art of each second. Toddler pictures, school photos, senior portraits, family photos, and all the way through the journey of life to weddings, anniversaries, and grand-babies; it’s your life and we’re honored to have the chance to capture it for you.

Whether you’re looking for senior portraits, family portraits, or children’s portraits, we’re as excited about it as you are!  Each of our portrait sessions are unique, photographed on location at a local park, along the river, at your home, or anywhere you like… we can even bring a portable studio if the location calls for it!  Afterward, we’ll send you a link to your own private, password protected viewing gallery.  You can share your pictures with friends and family and make professional print purchases right from your gallery.

Senior Portraits

Senior Portraits should be awesome. We are not talking just your year book picture. We are talking about your real photos that your going to text your friends or share with everyone on social media.

The art of Senior Portrait Photography has changed over the years. Now there’s really no boundary to the creative possibilities. Senior Portrait photography is more about lifestyle and your story than about a single yearbook picture. It is about you and your personality in the everyday. Whether you want some formals, some in your sports uniform, or just fun and edgy – or all of the above. KW Photography & Design has you covered.

“We create portrait experiences that recognize each student’s unique personality and passions”

Family Portraits

As parents, we want to remember every little moment of our children’s lives; we want to freeze time. But our kids grow so quickly, and we can’t rewind the clock. That’s why our mission is to do the next best thing…to capture the different stages of a family’s life through our beautiful family portrait photography.  We love creating artistic photos of your family and children–images that capture the *twinkle* in their eyes.  With our intimate knowledge of the best photo locations in the area, we create family portraits that you’ll love for a lifetime.

Child Photography

Child Portraits are special – especially when you realize how fast they grow and change. These sessions capture the moments, personality and character of your kids in the seasons that change so quick. Whether it is a group shot or a individual portrait of your son or daughter, KW takes the time to make sure we get it right, we get it memorable. It really is about making memories that last a lifetime.

Oh those kids… Ask most parents about taking pictures of their own kids and watch the expression.  Truth is there really isn’t a formula for kids photography. Every child is different and responds differently to photography sessions. What is the constant is patience, creativity and the ability to wait for the unexpected. Some of the best portraits come from the candid process. With young kids it takes time for them to play a little bit and get comfortable around the camera. It takes engaging them and making them feel like they are a part of the process.
