I know photo sessions can feel awkward. Standing in front of a camera, trying to figure out what to do with your hands, worrying about posing—it's a lot. Maybe you're a little camera-shy, or you've never done this before and don't know what to expect.

Here's what I know: you want photos that feel like YOU. Not stiff, not forced—just real. And you want the whole thing to be easy and maybe even fun.

That's exactly what I do. I'll help you feel comfortable, I'll tell you what to do (no awkward guessing), and by the end of it, you'll probably forget the camera's even there. We'll get the photos you need, but mostly? We're just gonna hang out and have a good time.

These Moments Won't Last Forever

Let's make sure you remember them

Engagement Session

$475 | Up to One Hour

Let's capture the excitement, the way you look at each other, the RING and all the reasons you said yes in the first place! We'll keep it relaxed and real—no stiff poses, just the two of you being exactly who you are together. These are the photos that show your story. Bring the champagne and a second outfit if you want!

What To Expect

When We Shoot

Sessions are booked on weekdays, and I shoot during golden hour—that's about an hour to 1.5 hours before sunset. Trust me, the lighting is everything, and your photos will thank you for it.

Where We Shoot

Any location between Cape May and Asbury Park (within one hour of 08087) has no travel fee. Beach, woods, your backyard—wherever feels like you.

Your Photos

I don't limit how many photos you get. You'll receive all the best shots from our session, fully edited and delivered in a private online gallery. Download them, share them, print them—they're yours.

Weather Happens

Sessions are weather permitting, high wind, high or low temperature and rain may cause a cancellation/reschedule for a new date that works for both of our availability.

I get it—choosing a photographer feels like a big deal. You're trusting someone to capture important moments, and you want to make sure it's gonna be good.

Here's what you can expect: I'll show up with a plan. I'll help you figure out what to wear, where to go, and what to do once we're there. I'll keep things moving so you're not standing around wondering what's next. And I'll make sure you're actually comfortable—not just pretending to be.

By the end of our session, we'll probably be friends. That's just how it goes.
