A NEW JERSEY NEWBORN AND FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE
FOR BUSY FAMILIES LOOKING FOR A STRESS-FREE EXPERIENCE
Your wedding day wasn’t just the best day of your life. It’s the day a new chapter in your love story began! And now, I want to document everything that comes after! Limiting the number of clients I serve each year doesn’t just allow me to deliver an unparalleled experience—it also allows me to continue serving couples as they transition from newlyweds to parents!
Whether your little one is currently snuggled away in your belly, on their way to buy their first pair of ballet slippers, or preparing for the first day of middle school, motherhood is a journey that, once it begins, never ends. But most of all, it’s one I believe should be celebrated at every stage! So, I hope to preserve this new chapter in your love story with the same care we dedicate to our wedding clients! Don’t worry over squirmy littles or finding the perfect outfit. My experience is refined to help moms preserve their memories with ease! Let’s fill your family photo albums with tender images you’ll cherish for decades to come.

I can’t wait hear about what milestone you’re looking to document! All of my portrait experiences are completely custom and designed to create beautiful artwork for your home, so I’ll want to talk about your vision and how you’d like to display your artwork. I offer both in-studio and lifestyle sessions, providing the flexibility to fit your session vision.

Once you’ve booked, we’ll begin to craft your session. Because I believe your images should decorate the walls of your home, we plan your session with your home decor in mind! Let’s customize a session to match your taste. From choosing the color palette that will best complement your home, to choosing outfits for each individual family member, to scheduling the best session time that won’t conflict with those must-have baby naps, I’ll work with you to plan every detail of the session.

If you’re booking a family session, we’ll select your date upon booking, so we give ourselves plenty of time to prepare. But if you’ve got a newborn on the way, I have a uniquely flexible booking plan: just send me a message within three days after your little one is born, and I’ll put your name on my next available date!

When your session day arrives, professional hair and makeup will be provided for momma and I'll expertly guide you through every pose and prompt, capturing classic portraits and candid moments, too! Whether you choose an in-studio or lifestyle session, you can rest assured that all of our pre-planning will result in beautiful artwork to hang on the walls of your home and cherish in a custom album.

As a mom, your precious family heirlooms are the most important part of the whole experience…but who has the time to make them!? This is why your collection includes a Reveal & Ordering Appointment so we can create your next family heirloom immediately!

For studio sessions, you'll indulge in a catered lunch for two while we prep your photos for the reveal and you'll see your images on the very same day. We will walk you through all the options, and you only purchase what you love after seeing the images.
For outdoor sessions, we'll pick a date for your Reveal & Ordering Appointment 2-3 weeks from your session date.

For that annual family portrait session
Q: When should I book my newborn session?
A: I hold newborn sessions within the first 2-3 weeks after birth, so I recommend inquiring after Week 20 of your pregnancy. We’ll get your date on the calendar as soon as possible so we can catch that impossibly adorable newborn cuteness!
Q: Where do maternity and newborn sessions take place?
A: Maternity and newborn sessions generally take place at my studio in Point Pleasant, NJ. If you are not local to me, we can create a custom session closer to your home at a portrait studio near you. For families who would rather stay home for the newborn session, I offer lifestyle sessions in-home for newborns. Maternity sessions can also take place at a local park or beach. Whether you already know the perfect spot or you’d like me to do a little location scouting, we’ll find the perfect location to match your vision.
Q: Where do family sessions take place?
A: Family sessions generally take place at a favorite park or beach. Once you book, we'll chat about all the options during your planning appointment.
Q: Can our pet be in the family photo?
A: While I ask that families keep their four-legged family members at home for studio sessions, I’m more than happy to invite them into the frame for lifestyle sessions! If we are at your home or out in nature, feel free to bring them along for the fun. Just let me know during our phone call that you’d like to include your pup so we avoid beaches and parks that aren’t dog-friendly.
“CAPTURES YOUR MOMENTS IN SUCH AN ARTISTIC, TIMELESS WAY!”
At our 2017 wedding, Alex and her team were so professional, knew how to manage the day in a smooth and productive way so they didn’t miss any important shots, and most importantly, the end results were beautiful. We have since met up with Alex to have her photograph each of our daughters for their 1st birthdays. Again, we were so happy with her photos. Bottom line: Alex is a talented professional who knows how to streamline her business, limit the number of weddings every year to make sure her brides get a top-notch experience, and no detail is left unnoticed.
