Hoboken NJ Newborn Photography

How precious is this little guy?! I had the pleasure of photographing baby Joey’s newborn session this summer and I loved everything about this session! This family has an amazing apartment in Hoboken overlooking the NYC skyline so for that reason alone this little guy has a pretty cool room haha. They also had his nursery so beautifully decorated with a gorgeous world map! Baby Joey did such a great job the entire session, I don’t think he cried once, which is extremely rare in a newborn session! Not only was baby Joey super photogenic, so were his mommy & daddy. I loved his momma’s green floral dress which paired so well with dad’s blue button down. Capturing the love between these three was such a joy! I absolutely love being able to capture such special times in people’s lives!

Enjoy the photos!

Hoboken NJ Engagement Photography | Lauren + Bobby

This was such a fun engagement session! Anytime I get to go to Hoboken for a shoot I get so excited. There are so many cool locations for photos and it is just an awesome place to be! We started this session on one of the cobblestone streets in the city- so pretty! Since we were on a block we were surrounded by garages, fences, and garbage cans but it was fun for me to get creative and frame it so that you wouldn’t know! We made our way down to the water front to get some of the gorgeous NYC skyline in the background. We had a great time talking about wedding plans and the city as we walked from location to location. Lauren & Bobby are such an awesome couple I can’t wait to see them on their wedding day and capture the love they have for one another!

Highlands NJ Engagement Photography | Maura + Chris

Wow, what an awesome time I had with Maura + Chris! They are such a beautiful couple inside and out! You’d think some rain clouds would have set us back, but it actually worked to our advantage considering the time of day we met. I couldn’t believe how quickly this couple became comfortable in front of the camera. We even laughed about how it seemed like they’ve both done this before, haha! I’m so glad we we’re able to get such a variety of photos in the same place! In between shots we walked around to find some more cool settings and chatted about their wedding planning journey. We ended our time by driving down to the beach and got some more sweet shots of the couple! It was so much fun shooting Maura + Chris’ engagement session and capturing their love for each other. I can’t wait to do the same on their wedding day which is just under 2 weeks away!

Red Bank NJ Engagement Session | Melissa & Justinn

I met Melissa + Justinn in Red Bank on an early fall day. Although it was windy and much chillier than we expected Melissa and Justinn made the best out of it. They were very easy going and super awesome to work with! We started in the Riverside Gardens Park where I got some lovely pictures of the sweet couple. Their outfits really complimented each other. We then headed down to Broad St. where we had some fun sharing a beer together at The Robinson's Ale House. They will be getting married in just a few short weeks at The English Manor! I'm so excited to capture this beautiful couple on their wedding day. :)

Spring Lake NJ Engagement Photography | NJ Wedding Photographer | Cassie + Brian

Cassie & Brian’s engagement session was SO much fun! We had a gorgeous day at Spring Lake for their photos and these two just look so good and are adorable together.  It is always fun exploring different parts of Divine Park and using the beautiful bridges as a backdrop. Then having the beach right there is the added bonus. Cassie and Brian got engaged on my own wedding anniversary (Sept. 3rd!) and are getting married at the Jumping Brook Country Club this October. I just can’t wait for their wedding day. I know it’s going to be so amazing and such a blast! 

Enjoy the photos!

Hotel Du Village Wedding | New Hope PA | Lexie + Mike

Lexie and Mike’s wedding was AMAZING!!! The forecast called for rain but it held off and we were able to explore all of the beauty the Hotel Du Village has to offer! We started the day in the gorgeous bridal suite photographing all of Lexie’s beautiful details. Lexie’s dress, from Kleinfeld's was stunning and looked even more breathtaking on her! The girls had beautiful floral print matching robes which we had to snap a few photos in as well. Once Lexie was in her dress it was time to head to the church. Lexie and Mike had a sweet ceremony at St. Cyril of Jerusalem Church. The light in this church is so pretty! I loved the colors of the bridesmaids dresses and all of the florals made by Petal Pushers were incredible! It was certainly a hot day but these two didn’t sweat it (pun intended!) We got some gorgeous bride and groom portraits and then if was off to cocktail hour. The reception room and the decor tied everything together perfectly! Lexie and Mike’s guests danced the night and had the BEST time! It was such an honor to capture this sweet couple’s wedding day! 

Congratulations Lexie & Mike- Enjoy the photos!

West Long Branch NJ Newborn Photography

I love newborn sessions of all kinds but it’s always extra special for me when it’s for repeat clients. I LOVE seeing a family grow and getting to capture them at different stages in life. I really just can’t believe how quickly children grow!! It was so sweet to see this family of 5 become a family of six with the addition of their newest baby boy. The kids were so excited to take photos with their baby brother and it could not have been cuter. Enjoy the photos!

Frelinghuysen Arboretum Engagement Photography | New Jersey Wedding Photographer | Vanessa + Kurt |

Vanessa & Kurt’s engagement session was a photographers dream! Not only was the location beautiful, they were also dressed to the nines! Vanessa looked gorgeous in her flowy pink dress and Kurt’s navy suit paired perfectly. I met with the couple last summer right before I had my daughter. You could imagine how much easier it was for me to get around during this shoot- haha! Vanessa shared their very romantic engagement story with me which involved candles, rose peddles and a pier. It was such a beautiful day for photos as we walked around Frelinghuysen Arboretum! I had such a great time with this awesome couple and I cannot wait to photograph their wedding day at Park Savoy in January 2019.
