Hillside NJ Maternity Photographer
This lovely mom-to-be wanted to celebrate her soon-to-arrive baby girl in shades of neutrals and pinks. She leaned into the soft romanticism of beaded embellishments on a few gowns and fabrics, and soft colors. The sheer beaded tulle fabrics really showed off her growing bump, and mom herself was just glowing. Dad was head over…

Union City NJ Maternity Photographer
I have such an appreciation for when dad-to-be looks into and books the maternity session for mom. Sometimes we forget that this special moment, is a shared moment too! And most importantly, even though we are experiencing all of these changes that may or may not have good days, our partners just marvel at the…

Hackensack Maternity Photographer
This gorgeous, glowing mom inquired about a session when she was 39 weeks pregnant! Luckily, I was able to squeeze her in 2 days later, while we both openly hoped she wouldn’t go into labor. I normally don’t advise going past 34 weeks of pregnancy for a maternity session – this is mainly for comfort…

Set in what is probably the capital of Portuguese folklore, the minho region is rich in this tradition and culture.

Motorcycle Maternity Session – NJ Maternity Photographer
I just want to start off by saying, this was a first for me. I was surprised to see an inquiry come in with a motorcycle maternity session theme and was intrigued. When we spoke about the session I was shown a few inspiration images. I was sure we could kick it up a notch…

Ranchos Folcloricos – Newark, NJ
It was so lovely capturing this family and their generational “evolution” within the folklore experience. Growing up in ranchos folcloricos right here in New Jersey, from the age of 7, to present-day adulthood and parenthood, Victor’s personal journey with Portuguese folklore groups has defined so much of his life. There is so much to say…

Rahway Maternity & Newborn Photographer
I had the pleasure of photographing both this family’s maternity and newborn images. A gorgeous early fall day still allowed us to shoot their maternity session outdoors with those subtle leaf color changes. It also allowed us to shoot a few images in the water. She looked like an absolute goddess in a golden colored…
