Ocean City, NJ Family Beach Portraits - B Family
Cotton candy skies, warm breeze, children laughing. THIS is what summer evenings are all about in Ocean City, New Jersey - my happy place. The B family has been trusting me for a few years now to capture their family, and this year was very special, because grandmom and grandpop joined as well! What a FABULOUS way to commemorate a family vacation or to spend an evening with family. The B family was down for just one evening and was headed over to the famous Ocean City, New Jersey boardwalk for ice cream and of course, the rides.
Are you considering a family photo shoot at the beach? I would love to be considered!
Backyard Wedding in New Jersey: Linda + Kyle
Like so many couples this summer, Kyle and Linda had made their plans long in advance before Covid was ever known to be married on June 13th. Like so many others, they too would have to reschedule their celebration with friends and family, changing their date three times with the uncertainties that we are all experiencing. They decided they absolutely wanted to be married on their original date, surrounded by only 10 other people to comply with social distancing.
I started at their home, where they had a first look in their backyard, while their pup, Linus ran around them. They exchanged gifts- Linda worked together with her new Mother-in-law to gift Kyle his late father’s watch. A handful of guests met them at The Palace in Blackwood for their outdoor ceremony before heading back to Kyle and Linda’s for BBQ under the string lights in their backyard.
I love grand weddings, they are mostly what I photograph, but there is something so special and sweet about an intimate wedding. There is no audience or crowd, every person there is a major contribution to the event, and you feel all of the emotions because you are so close to them. I feel so honored to be invited to document Kyle and Linda’s special day and I’m so excited because they are planning on a large celebration with friends and family next summer!

Barclay Farmstead Photographer: The Kyler Family
One Sunday morning, I met up with this adorable family of four, to capture their first family photograph. (Holy alliteration.) We headed to Barclay Farmstead, and what an awesome little spot it was! Rustic, rustic, and more rustic. They are such an adorable family with such fun and well-behaved kids, and just all-round awesome parents.
