CHRISTMAS TREE FARM FAMILY PICTURE SESSION NEW JERSEY

Christmas Tree Farm Family Picture Session New Jersey

I had such a lovely time photographing at Winterberry Christmas Tree Farm in Pipersville, Pa this year.  Christmas Tree Farm family picture sessions are so much fun!  The tree farm makes for an amazing backdrop.  It is really inspirational to photograph families there too.
It was pure joy meeting this family and capturing these sweet moments for them.  Patrick was full of smiles despite the chilly weather we had this particular day. Never the less, this family dressed for the occasion and we got some great variety for their gallery.
If you missed the Christmas Tree Farm Family Pictures we will be hosting them again next holiday season.  The spots fill up fast so make sure you grab one once they are released.  We get to have fun and run around capturing sweet family moments and you can also pick out your christmas tree while we are there.  The owners will cut and wrap your tree for you too!
To book a session, call (908)-752-1622, I can tell you all about our current sessions.  Take a look at our Family Portfolio to see some more work.
I can’t wait to work with you and your family.








SLOANE 1 YEAR PHOTO SESSION | FRENCHTOWN, NJ

SLOANE 1 YEAR PHOTO SESSION | FRENCHTOWN, NJ

Sloane came into the studio to celebrate her first birthday!  1 year photo sessions are one of my favorites.  When your baby turns one, it almost feels surreal as to how fast the year went by.  These sessions are great because I capture all the details of your growing baby and even make sure mom and dad get into a few.  Some families include a cake for “cake smash” purposes, other families do cupcakes and some families decided to add other items into the pictures instead.  Sloane was so adorable when she came into the studio.  Her momma brought in a few family heirlooms and we were able to do many set ups with her.  These sessions are fast!  One year olds are busy and they are explorers.  I move quick and get all my images within about 30 minutes of starting.  I also added into her session some adorable floral bonnets made by one of my favorite vendors, Whipoorwill Nest Boutique.  Her Bonnets never disappoint and Sloane was the perfect model for them.
If you are interested in booking a session for you 1 year old, please contact me.  I take a limited number each month to ensure a quick turn around on your products.  These sessions also make an amazing photo album.

Fresh 48 | Hunterdon Medical Center NJ

Fresh 48 | Hunterdon Medical Center NJ

This sweet baby girl was so wonderful to capture at Hunterdon Medical Center in Flemington, New Jersey for the family’s fresh 48 photo session.  The best thing to capture are those first few days within birth.  The first few days are such a whirlwind of information and sleeplessness as the family acclimates to adding a joyful new baby to their lives.
The rawness of these sessions is amazing.  There are so many emotions that are captured during a fresh 48 session.  I am so happy to be able t deliver these moments to my clients.  They will have these images to look back on for years to come.  The images reflect such tenderness, excitement, tiredness and love as the parents acclimate to their newborn.
Because of the nature of these sessions I am only able to book 3 per month.  You may schedule these sessions up to 4 months in advance.  While you are on the way to the hospital you or a close family member may contact me via phone, text or email.  In such a stressful time, let me come and capture all the important and beautiful new moments with your newborn baby.
You can contact me here.

Laughlin Family Session

The Laughlin family session was so much fun.  Even though it was super hot, we still had a great time and got some wonderful images.
Early in the summer, my family moved from the Gulf Coast of Mississippi to the East Coast of New Jersey.  Throughout my journey, I was blessed enough to stop and visit friends.  Teal and I have known each other for over 30 years....weird right?!?!  I was excited to stop and have the opportunity to visit with her and her family in Greensboro.  Of course I couldn't resist the opportunity to have session with them!  So we trekked off to the local Botanical Garden on what felt like the hottest day ever.  It was so worth it tho.  I captured some amazing moments between the Laughlin Family.
One of the things I love most about photographing families is snapping my shutter during those real life moments.  A sweet kiss being exchanged, an embrace, movement and even silly faces.  Actually, when I'm shooting during my sessions, I always have my families make a silly face.  It tends to lighten the mood and get rid of nervousness for those who do not really care to be photographed.  There are also a few other tricks I like to bring out to get emotive/emotional images for my galleries.   To schedule your family session contact me!  I also love to help out with wardrobe styling and picking out the perfect place to capture your family.

Kristins Maternity Photos

Kristin's maternity photos are amazing. In studio maternity sessions are so much fun!  When I found out Kristin was expecting her second baby, I knew I wanted to capture these moments for her.  Right before I moved from the Gulf Coast to Milford, NJ, I reached out to her and she came to the studio.  It was exciting and a great session.  I even had my daughter there to help with the gown tossing.  Amelia tends to help me out and she really loves to do so.  She is a great gown tosser and she always seems very interested in pregnancy; maybe she will be an OBGYN or a Midwife when she is older.
I was so excited when Kristin came over to have images taken of her baby bump.  I first met Kristin when we were both pregnant with our sons back in 2013.  She had just moved to the area and I was expecting my second baby and we hit it off right away.  Our sons were born exactly 2 months apart to the day.  For the longest time, when they were little they even kind of resembled each other.  It was really cute.
I loved being able to capture these moments for her.  Crazy to think that our sons are both 3!  Time really flies.  She looks amazingly gorgeous pregnant!  Kristin maternity photos show just how much of a variety we can get in studio. And I absolutely adore my maternity gowns from Chelsea Celeste Gowns.  I love how dramatic the black and white images look.  She had her baby, a boy, they named him Samson and he is adorable and fully of squish!!

Baby Bellies, Maternity Photos

Baby bellies are the most beautiful thing ever.  If there is something that you can do for yourself during pregnancy, get that bump photographed.  I know, I know, we get pregnant and big and uncomfortable; and at the end we can't wait to "have that baby".  Once you have your sweet bundle in your arms you might miss that baby belly! ....maybe....maybe not.  I know after all 3 of my babies I eventually missed rubbing my baby belly.  I missed feeling all those kicks and hiccups.  It was a miracle to watch how my body carried each child differently and how my body just did what it had to do.  I adore photographing maternity.  It is such a special time for women.  I think of it as a time to celebrate the magic of life and really love to capture all angles of pregnancy whether in studio or out. I have plenty of dresses to choose from in our maternity dress closet.  Clients can also bring along a maternity gown they own if preferred.  I have even had clients take an old bridal dress and cut a slit up the middle.  Clients don't have to do nude/boudoir maternity, I photograph lots of clients wearing regular clothing with their significant others and their children. You may choose to show off your baby bellies or cover them tastefully.
Check out my blog to see some of my other maternity sessions and other baby bellies.
Being flexible and making my clients feel comfortable are extremely important to me.  If you have an idea and want me to capture your baby belly, please contact me.  I love to capture baby bellies!  All sessions are discussed prior and we put together exactly what you are looking for in your maternity photo shoot.  Some models choose to do boudoir maternity whereas other models prefer to use both gowns and a wardrobe.  It is absolutely fine to do a little of both as well.
There is also the option to have your session inside the studio, outside at a location or both.  We will come up with the perfect stylized session for you together.
