These amazing parents are my brother and sister in law and mannnn, do they have the cutest kids. Their happy place is in the Thousand Islands, right on the St. Lawrence River (I know to us NJ’-ers, “river rats” sounds like a bad thing… but it is actually really special to them!) They pretty much […]

My client aka roomie from college has wanted a cherry blossom family session since I started my photography business but, like it does sometimes, life got in the way. This year, we got it on the calendar months ago. And then, since cherry blossoms are at the mercy of Mother Nature and are not guaranteed […]

This day was cccccold but you would never know that by looking at these photos. Originally we had this session scheduled for March, but mom asked if we could move it up since she was already feeling big and uncomfortable. We tried to be efficient and kept soon-to-be big brother in the car to warm […]

I finished my 2021 season with a bang— a beautiful maternity session with a glowing mama-to-be and gorgeous light. We were at one of my favorite locations and we pretty much saw no one the entire time. We had the place to ourselves! It was a last minute switch since my other spot would have […]

I’m not going to lie, it’s a new (really fun) challenge to do indoor sessions that are NOT newborn sessions. I am still looking for that pretty light, but my subjects are not sleepy newborns who don’t move. They are on-the-move bigger kids! This can actually be a lot of fun because we can utilize […]

This mom spoke my language right from the start. She just wanted to preserve this moment in time with her boys. Time is a thief! One minute you are cuddling up with them and helping them do everything and then the next, they can do so much on their own and don’t “need” you as […]

I remember last year, as I was starting my business “officially,” this mom was one of the first people who found me and booked a session. I was so excited that someone who didn’t know me at all had seen my work and wanted to hire me! I did a front porch session for her. […]

It was a chilly but gorgeous day at Princeton University this past Saturday. I’ll be honest, I didn’t even feel the cold because I was so excited to be back in one of my all time favorite spots in the state. The architecture, the ivy, the arches, the sunset…I loved it all! Unfortunately, these three […]

I was so excited when this family wanted to do their session in Asbury Park. This was, sadly, my only time getting anywhere near the beach in the past year. And the weather was on point. This mom had asked if we could do the session in the morning and I was very leery. I […]

Most of my sessions are rustic, middle-of-a-field sessions (which I LOVE), but this family always likes to mix it up. Last year, we did a session in Asbury Park, one of their favorite places to spend time together as a family, and this year, their session was in the downtown of their hometown Cranford. I […]
