I have been loving this early spring, as the boats are starting to find their place in the water again. I recently captured this moment in St. Michaels on the Miles River as a single sailboat was braving the still chilly weather.⠀ Photo by @caro_jphillips
I am very close with my high school friends, who also grew up on the shore. We constantly explore together when everyone is home and I love capturing them in my photos. This was recently when we discovered the beautiful Ferry Point Park in Kent Narrows. Photo by @caro_jphillips
My job has taken me all over the country, but recently I’ve been assigned stories right here in my hometown and I am loving discovering things I’ve never seen before. I’ve been waking up with the sunset and documenting life around the shore and finding some real beauty in it. This was taken in Terrapin Park early one morning. Photo by @caro_jphillips
When I’m on a boat, I try to take a toll of all my different senses and note what they are experiencing. The spray of the water is probably my favorite thing to pay attention to. I love the flicks of water on your face and how they make such a beautiful scene. Photo by @caro_jphillips
When I’m not taking photos of the water, I love taking photos of the geese flying overhead in the late fall/winter.It might be because “Fly Away Home” is one of my favorite films or I just love the patterns they make as they fly over, but I always have a phone full of these photos.

Most of my photos are around the Chester River, a river in which I’ve called home for at least 15 years. I currently live off the river in Kent Island where I can walk my new puppy along the shoreline many times a day (mainly to tire her out!). There is always something new to spot in the landscape. I came across this spot, which is a few steps down from my apartment, and captured it on a day where the water was in perfect balance - calm + rough. Fun fact: This is an iPhone photo and I have tried recreating it with my DSLR but I have never seen it like this again! Photo by @caro_jphillips
Hello! My name is Caroline J. Phillips and I am taking over the Chesapeake Bay Magazine’s Instagram page this week. I am a freelance photographer and filmmaker located in Kent Island, Maryland. Growing up on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and along the water has instilled a love for capturing the stories of the land and sea, as well as the people that live here. Stay tuned as I share more of my photos this week! Photo by @caro_jphillips
This photo was taken behind my home on Mattox Creek, looking out towards the Potomac. The osprey, boathouse, water, and sailboat in this picture capture and portray much of the fascination and allure of the Chesapeake Bay, and what makes living here so unique.
