I had such a wonderful time with the Klint family on a picture perfect spring day at Clum-Kennedy Park in Kensington, MD! We had beautiful cherry blossoms in bloom and lots of sweet smiles (and trucks)! SO much fun!

Cherry Blossom Time! | Maryland

I absolutely LOVE cherry blossom season! These beautiful blooms are so iconic in the DC area and there’s always such a buzz this time of year! It is an early peak bloom this year, and while I love the beauty of these trees surrounding the Tidal Basin, I do NOT love the crowds, traffic, impossible parking and fighting to get photos. (plus the NPS requires permits for any commercial photography, so family sessions are not easy!)

The good news is cherry blossoms are not just at the Tidal Basin. I love exploring and finding blossoms nearby. These were at a local park here in Montgomery county. And this is a great tree locator to know where the trees are in Montgomery County (and this one for DC). The tricky part is they don’t all bloom at the same time, so I always want to check before planning session based on the map!
