I’ve been shooting family portraits on LBI for many years. The first time I booked a session down there, I honestly thought it was a fluke. I had never done family beach photos on LBI before – so I had no idea how the family that had inquired with me had even found me. As […]

Be still my heart! Mallard Island Yacht Club is such an incredible wedding venue, and this was a magical wedding to shoot! I felt like a photographer in a candy store, because literally everywhere I looked, there was gorgeousness. I was very nearly overwhelmed with the pretty! One of my most favorite parts of Mallard […]

I love this family! I remember being on the beach and watching the weather the entire time we were taking these, because it looked like rain was imminent (and I actually do think that the rain began just as we were finishing up)! I get asked all the time how I make decisions based on […]

One of my most favorite things about family portraits at the beach, is that it is always different! You’d think that I might be bored of shooting at the beach (at this point in my career I have done hundreds of sessions and weddings there) – but no. Every single time I’m photographing at the […]

I have to admit, I’ve been falling in love with winter weddings lately! From fur shawls to long lace sleeves, there are so many beautiful ways to have your wedding feel like an elegant winter wonderland. This wedding was extra special, because Jodie is actually the daughter of my favorite high school teacher! I don’t […]

It’s always really special when I get to take photos for a friend (and also fellow photographer). I have known Courtney for a long while now, and I am so lucky to call her a friend. I have enjoyed getting to see glimpses of her kids growing up over the years, and I love how […]

Take me back to sweet summer, please! I always love when families want to include a little bit of themselves into their sessions – and this one at a marina in Beach Haven is such a perfect example! I am all about unique and unexpected locations for sessions. The beach is a classic option – […]

I feel like photos only become more valuable as time goes on. Nothing can capture you the way you were at any given time in your life quite like a photo can. I alway find this to be especially true of my family sessions. Kids grow so quickly, seasons of life are always changing – […]

I swear I know every single street on Long Beach Island by this point in my photography career! As much as there are some gorgeous stretches of beach along the entire island, I recommend Barnegat Light for photo sessions over and over again. Mostly because it’s incredibly versatile and there are so many different options […]

On cold winter days I always reminisce about my family photo sessions on the beach. Whenever it’s 5pm and dark outside, I always dream about how in a few short months at 5pm I will sometimes just be getting ready to leave the house to go shoot the evening’s sessions instead of holed up in […]
