Shelli's Maternity Session!

“Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.” ~ Elizabeth Stone

Every single maternity shoot is extraordinary. Of course there is a method to the madness, but each mom-to-be brings her own personal touch. Shelli is a first time mom with the heart of gold. Her smile is infectious, and her love of life exuded through these photos! Her husband, Lenny, also a first time dad, joined in on the fun to create everlasting memories for their growing family!

Where’d she get the dress?!

Shelli’s dress was purchased at Pink Blush. Pink Blush is a online boutique with a gorgeous maternity line.

Lauren and Ryan's Princeton University Engagement Session

Have wanderlust but stuck in Jersey? The architecture at Princeton University is sure to make you feel like you suddenly landed in Europe without the jet-lag

Gothic towers, ivy covered facades, marble pillars…need I say more? If you love the idea of architecture being the backdrop for your engagement session, Princeton University is the place for you.

If you’ve travelled to Europe, you may be familiar with this style of architecture. Notre-Dame, Westminster Abbey and the Duomo di Milano are just a few examples of gothic style buildings. While they can appear imposing at first glance, the pointed arches and ribbed vaults create a stunning and geometrical backdrop for any type of session.

But enough history, let’s talk romance.

Check out that ring! Lauren’s marquise-cut diamond is not only beautiful but incredibly unique!

After 5 years of dating, Ryan popped the question on the beaches of Cape May. They have two adorable fur babies named Limoncello and Delilah, and are currently counting down the days to their July 2021 wedding!

Lauren had a certain vision in mind for the Engagement session, and after some research and samples from previous engagement sessions, they decided Princeton would be a good fit. The best part was that neither of them had visited Princeton before, so as we turned each corner they were continuously astounded by the diversity and beauty of the campus.
