There is nothing I love more than doing some sunset photos on beautiful Long Beach Island – and it’s even more fun when there is a perfect dog and her Mama with me! When I first spoke with Kim, I was so excited for her session because I knew she had a vision, and she […]

I am pretty sure I’ve said it before, but I will say it again – shooting proposals is absolutely invigorating. Jason went all out for his proposal to Lindsey on the beach in Spring Lake, and I was so excited that I was able to be a part of his plans. Guys take note – […]

What’s better than one adorable baby on the beach? Adorable twin babies! I always have such a good time whenever I am down in Long Beach Island doing family portraits on the beach, and these two cuties were a real treat. They were such happy babies. When I was a kid, my parents brought me down […]

I may have been born on Island Beach State Park (just kidding – I wasn’t, but I was brought there by boat literally my entire life so I guess that counts for something, right?) but Lavallette is still close to my heart. Ironically despite this beach being a mere 20 minutes away from my home, […]

Any time I am envious of photographers who live near mountains or deserts or salt flats, I always remind myself that I have places like Beach Haven, Long Beach Island. Honestly, any beach on LBI is perfect for family photos, who am I kidding? Obviously it helps when you have a super adorable family to […]

As though their destination wedding wasn’t enough magic, I got to do a killer day-after session with Brittany and Chris at Iberostar Paraiso Lindo in beautiful Playa Del Carmen Mexico! To up the ante, Brittany wanted to trash her dress in the Caribbean sea, and then smash cake in Chris’s face (make that an entire […]

True confession: before I was a photographer I had never visited Stone Harbor. I had heard so many friends talking about Stone Harbor and Avalon and Sea Isle City, but they were just fantastical places that were ‘south’ of me. I ventured down to Stone Harbor for my first time a few years ago for […]

If you are looking for an engagement session that begins with beers at a quintessential dive bar and ends with a gorgeous sunset, these photos are for you! When I first met Melissa, I could swear that I had known her forever. We were talking about how she and Dan had met, and she told […]

My family portraits on the beach are truly in full force, and I have been so fortunate to be able to spend most of my evenings doing photos of amazing families on beaches up and down the coast of New Jersey! In July alone I did sessions as far south as Cape May, and as […]

One of the best things about being a family portrait photographer in LBI is getting to visit so many gorgeous beaches! Barnegat Light, Loveladies, Harvey Cedars, Beach Haven, Surf City, Ship Bottom, and Holgate are some favorites (just to name a few). I have literally never been to a beach on Long Beach Island that […]
