Mary + Gregg + baby-to-be | South Jersey Maternity Session

I’ve known Mary since the pre-K era, and we were even roommates during freshman year of college, so I already knew she was NOT camera-shy:)Sure enough, as I mentioned on my Facebook page, she showed up in wedge heels that I’m not sure I could navigate on my best day, and went tromping into the woods with me despite being 33 weeks pregnant. (Hey, there was some perfect light coming through the trees. We HAD to.) And Gregg was an awesome sport while we dragged him all over the farmstead. Here are a few of my favorites…

Thanks Mary and Gregg! Hope you have a relaxing few days before the real fun starts!:)

Announcing a tasty deal for seniors (and anyone else feeling glam)! | South Jersey Senior Portraits

Hey.
You.
Grab some friends. Pick a spot. Get treated like the rock stars you are.
For the foreseeable future, I’m letting up to five friends split the normal cost of a two-hour session with high-res files on disc ($750).

Two friends, that’s $375 each (a bargain!).
Three friends, that’s $250 each (a steal!).
Five friends, that’s just $150 each (highway robbery!)

Four friends would be $187.50 each. Kind of a weird number, but that’s okay too.

Here’s the full scoop (the ice cream jokes never stop!):

CJ | South Jersey Newborn Photographer

I love when I get to run into old friend on the job — I went to high school with CJ’s mom, and it was great meeting her growing family! Not gonna lie, CJ was pretty much a dream baby. If he wasn’t sleeping, he was making hilarious Blue Steel expressions. Here are a few favorites from our session!

Thanks CJ and family!:)

Dylan | South Jersey Newborn Photographer

I like the way Dylan’s mom thinks — she emailed me back in June to book her newborn session! Dylan is a little Houdini — I consider myself a swaddling champion, but he managed to bust out of every wrap I did. His parents are big Phillies fans, so I think maybe he was just practicing his seventh-inning stretch:)Here are my faves of this adorable little dude…

…and one with the proud aunt!

It was great meeting you and your family, Dylan!

Bundle of Joy | South Jersey Newborn Photographer

This was an extra-fun newborn session for me, because I just photographed her mom and dad’s wedding a year before! I love seeing families grow. And besides, this is one seriously cute baby. Here are a few faves…

It was great meeting your new addition!:)
