The first time I photographed the McDevitt family there were three…now they are five! It was so fun to reconnect and see this beautiful family grow. With a baby and a couple toddlers it was action packed and so much fun-kids just bring the best kind of wild to a shoot. Each has their own amazing personality and were just a pleasure to capture! The gorgeous fall leaves and warm glowy sun made the whole thing even better.

This was our mini-lifestyle shoot, which is a 30 minute session. This seems to be our most popular package right now because I think it’s hard to know how long your kiddos will last during the session. This works well if you are looking for 30 or so photos to have a quick capture in this moment of your lives.

Sometimes it’s nice to slow down a little and spend a little more time playing and snuggling and exploring which is why I LOVE our 60 minute lifestyle photo sessions. We get a few more locations/looks and things don’t feel so chaotic and rushed and you will get a lot more photos (these are the shoots where I love to recommend putting together a small album-which is what WE do when we have family photos taken of ourselves).

We also offer day-in-the-life sessions which are pretty much non-existent right now because of covid, but when all this virus stuff goes away/becomes manageable I’m going to be offering a little discount on those. We don’t do enough of them and they are truly a magical way to document this perfect time in your lives. We capture a portrait session (all the usual great photos from our smaller sessions) but we also capture some of the day-to-day moments as well. Maybe making dinner and eating together, bath time and story time, or an afternoon playing in the sprinkler, eating popsicles and enjoying a picnic. Whatever is it, we take time and spend more than just a quick moment, we document your true days (because I think these everyday moments are the ones that slip our minds first).

Stay tuned for a little more info on our holiday card minis…..coming soon!! I’m thinking the date will be October 17th…hopefully that works for everyone!!

Princeton, New Jersey Family Photo session in the Fall

It was early-ish October and I had never been to The Sayen House and Gardens before and oh my goodness!! It is SUCH a gorgeous place, what a perfect little haven outside Trenton, NJ in Hamilton Township. The trees were just starting to turn and the warm late afternoon sun was coming up to its peak of warm glowy-ness! It’s by far my favorite time of year and there were a billion perfect spots to capture the Reeder family. We’ve been photographing the Reeders since they got married and they now have a fourth little member of their family (I will post their newborn session soon!). Here is the session we captured of them when their little girl was a newborn. And if you want to check out their gorgeous beach wedding you can see it HERE. They are the just the sweetest and it is so much fun to watch them and their family grow. This is seriously one of the BEST perks of this job-getting to know couples and families and watching them grow and being able to capture the best moments of their lives—honestly, what could be any better?!

I have a ton of awesome sessions to journal so stayed tuned, especially if you love fall as much as I do! I also can’t wait to jump into all my fall sessions coming up this year! Whoo! Be sure to keep an eye on our Insta and FB feeds in the next few months for some sneak peaks!
