Amy Turns 50 | Jersey Shore Photographer | Ocean County Photography

Amy turned 50 and her family wanted to surprise her with a coffee themed celebration.  The party theme was great, the room smelled delicious, and most importantly, she was shocked!  A truly surprised guest of honor makes all the prep work and planning so worth it in the end.  Happy birthday Amy, I know you enjoyed your evening with friends and family!

Gutowski | Family Photos | Jersey Shore Photographer | Ocean County Photography

The gorgeous Gutowski boys were back for some photos on a beautiful spring day!  We went to one of my favorite spots in town, the historic train station.  These boys were all smiles, especially when I asked Chase what his brother's name was!  Normally I have to say silly words to get some giggles, but these silly boys were full of joy!  Thank you for bringing your sweet smiles to another session!  Hope to see you soon!

Scarlett | Newborn Photos | Jersey Shore Photographer | Ocean County Photography

First time parents, Krystina and Anthony, brought their adorable bundle of joy to my studio for a newborn session and this little beauty did not disappoint!  Scarlett was wide awake and happy, which made for some amazing shots.  While some newborns tend to sleep their session away, this little one did not want to miss a beat.  With very expressive eyes and a gorgeous head of hair, she was perfect for all our newly added props. 

Congrats to this beautiful new family, hope to work with you again soon!

Stafford Headshots | Jersey Shore Photographer | Ocean County Photography

I spent the afternoon with the Stafford Republic Party to take some new headshots for them.  I love when an "out of the norm" type session presents itself because it keeps me on my toes.  What a great group of men and women who came dressed nice and professionally for their session.  Not only is it an honor to be asked to do this, but also to have this group represent the town I live in.  Thank you for all your hard work!

Mason | Third Birthday Party| Jersey Shore Photographer | Ocean County Photography

All of Mason's superhero friends were on deck to celebrate this big man turning THREE!  Batman isn't just about crime fighting, he can do cartwheels too!  The birthday boy had such a great time tumbling and jumping around with all of his friends.  Happy Birthday Mason, I know you enjoyed your party and that awesome cake!  Thank you for always coming back so I can capture all these fun memories of your sweet face!

Valentino | Three Month Milestone | Jersey Shore Photographer | Ocean County Photograph

Valentino joined me in the studio for some 3 month old photos and this little fella rocked it!  He was simply adorable and so photogenic.  And just look at this little ham in the bunny outfit, I can't!  These are the days I live for just doing what I love and being surrounded by so many things that bring me joy!  Thanks for dropping by Valentino, I hope to see you and your family soon!

Avery | Second Birthday Photos | Jersey Shore Photographer | Ocean County Photography

Avery was back in the studio today for some birthday photos!  This little frozen princess turned two and she wanted to celebrate with her best friend, Elsa!  She is just full of personality and spark, which is amazing to photograph.  Happiest of birthdays to you, little miss!  May this year bring you lots of joy!

Liberty Cake Smash | Jersey Shore Photographer | Ocean County Photography

This absolutely precious little beauty stopped by the studio for some first birthday photos.  First up was her dressy outfit, then her mermaid themed cake smash, followed by a nice splash bath to clean up all that blue icing!  Smashing the cake and making a mess is so much less stressful knowing they will clean up well in our bubbly bath.  Liberty has such beautiful, expressive eyes and I just love the way her photos came out.  Thanks for coming back to visit me, Libby, hope you have a great birthday!

 

 

 

 

Joey Easter | Jersey Shore Photographer | Ocean County Photography

Happy Easter Little Dude

My handsome monthly client, Joey, was back in the studio for some Easter photos.  It has been wonderful to watch him grow session to session, which is one of the joys of return clients!  He was just an itty, bitty baby and now he's in the studio in a tie and dock shoes!  Seriously parents, where does the time go?  Happy Easter to Joey and his family, I hope your basket is filled with goodies!

Maternity Photos | Jersey Shore Photographer | Ocean County Photography

Beautiful Beach Maternity Photos

So beyond honored to be able to capture such beautiful memories for my clients, especially when my latest client is one of my best friends!  Katt and I took advantage of an almost 80 degree day this week to take some maternity photos.  Not only was she gorgeous and glowing, but it was so wonderful outside that she was able to get into the water in February!  She is getting so close to welcoming her beautiful daughter into this world and of course, I can't wait!  Tons of happiness to go around for this session and the many to come once baby girl arrives!
