6 Month Milestone Session | South Jersey Photographer

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it a thousand times again, I absolutely LOVE when a client comes back to me and I get to watch their babies grow! It is my favorite part of this job, and I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of it.

Miss Layla came back to the studio last month for her 6 month sitter/milestone session and it was so much fun seeing her again! We also got some great shots of her and big sister, Juliet! Look at this fun comparison from 6 months ago until now!

A lot of people forget to document the 6 month age, they’ll book a newborn session and then a smash cake session at one year, but forget about all the fun milestones in between! DONT miss this session! 6 months is so much fun to capture because your baby’s personality is really starting to come out and we capture ALLLL the smiles! You’d be surprised how much they can change in just those 6 months between 6-12 months!

If you’re thinking of capturing your baby’s 6 month photos, lets chat about options! Our grow with me plan allows you to capture every milestone at a discounted price so you never miss a session!

In the meantime, check out some favorites from miss Layla’s session

Introducing Baby Selah | South Jersey Newborn Portraits

I’m a bit behind on blogging sessions, blogging is never something that came easy to me, but I wanted to share more of this beautiful girl with the world, more than just a few sneaks, so here we are!

Miss Selah was wide awake during most of her session, but was an absolute angel! Her beautiful brown eyes looked up at me the whole session!

As your photographer, my job is to be flexible and patient and produce a gallery full of gorgeous photos, regardless of if baby is sleepy or not and sometimes those wide awake shots end up being my favorite!

This family was an absolute blessing and I truly loved meeting them and working with them! I cannot wait for little Selah to come back for her milestone sessions as she grows!

The Key to "Perfect Family Portraits" | South Jersey Newborn and Portrait Photographer

Want to know the secret to perfect family portraits?

If you’ve ever stressed about getting your family “picture perfect” for picture day, this blog is for you!

I KNOW how hard wrangling your family can feel. Family photos feels exhausting and too much work. I've been there!! But here, we do FUN. We do real, raw moments.

The key to a perfect family session is to go in with a new mindset. Imperfect moments, can make the most PERFECT photos. Whatever happens, happens… ya know?! Kids have meltdowns. Dads don't want to participate.

Moms- your family FEELS your energy. Stay calm and enjoy these moments. Pamper yourself, get yourself all done up. Relax and let the photos happen however they happen. Life isn't perfect, and photos capture life.

Let the kids run around and chase each other. Your baby doesn't want to walk and only wants to he held? Perfect, we'll snap some shots of you snuggling them. Not everyone is looking straight at the camera? Let me capture the emotions that they are feeling when they look at you, or look at a bird in the sky.

Make those memories. If that means your toddlers hair gets messy halfway through our session, so be it. Focus on reality. Focus on loving those babies and making the BEST memories with them.

You dont want to look back and remember how stressful it was to get everyone to look prim and proper. You'll look back at these photos and remember all those feelings of love and affection you had that day. You'll remember how much fun your kids had running around in circles and tackling dad to the ground.

Focus on that and let me do the rest!

Take a look at one of my most recent family sessions and you tell me… pretty perfect right?!

Motherhood Portraits 2023- South Jersey Family Photographer

Mothers and children share an indescribable, special bond. A feeling of warmth and comfort in your arms, no matter how old they may grow. My motherhood event comes around every year and is a great opportunity for you mamas to freeze these moments in time…

Why Are Are Mommy and Me Photoshoots so important?!

So many times, us mamas tend to be behind the camera, capturing our littles, and we often forget that WE need to get in these memories too.

As a mother myself, I know how fleeting time can be. One minute your baby is swaddled in your arms, and the next they are running around the house in a princess/super hero costume. Mommy and Me sessions are a chance to freeze these moments in time and capture those unseen, in between moments.

What Is a Mommy and Me Session?

During your session, I will work with your little one in a calm, fun atmosphere to create and capture these memories. Everything is completely candid, and your littles can just be themselves. Hug on them a little tighter, tickle those little toes, and I’ll take care of the rest!

Let me slow down time, for just a little while, and capture these moments for you to keep for a lifetime.

Here are a few of my favorite images from this year’s motherhood event and all of the amazing mamas I got to photograph!

Maternity Session For Maria -South Jersey Photographer

Another gorgeous mama came into my studio last week! Maria came in ready for all my crazy ideas! We got super creative and tried some new techniques!

We started off in the studio and then made our way down the shore to capture some images of Maria and her husband together on the beach! Did you know that your maternity session can include both studio and outdoor portraits in one?!

I love being able to capture the beauty and strength of the woman’s body during pregnancy. Take a look at some more of my favorite images from this session and reach out if you’re ready to schedule your own maternity session!
