Meal Prep. Once baby gets here it can be difficult to find time to feed yourself. Be sure to make plenty of meals beforehand. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even snacks. If you’re breastfeeding you’ll need to make sure you’re getting enough nutrient dense foods in. While it’s easy to reach for a quick junk food […]

Each year I have the amazing opportunity to take pictures at the Sunflower field in Tuckahoe, New Jersey. The field is awesome! While it might be a relatively small field, the rest of the grounds make up for it. The owner has a vintage truck as well as an old shed on the property that […]

Baby Taylor’s mom, Ginger, first messaged me asking if I was able to do a specific Tonka Truck picture she found on Pinterest. Ironically enough, my Father in Law cleaned out his storage unit a couple weeks before and had given us my husband’s old Tonka Trucks. One of the trucks were almost identical to […]

The DiDonato Family session took place in Sea Isle City, New Jersey. They chose to do their session down at Townsend’s Inlet. This is my favorite place in Sea Isle to do sessions. Since it is at the inlet, most of this beach is on the bay side. Therefore, the sunset is right behind it. […]

My families that return to me year after year have a special place in my heart. I always get happy when […]

Then, at six months, when Grayson started on solids, he loved all foods, even broccoli. It further confirmed that this little man’s first birthday would be Hungry Caterpillar. I was excited to be able to […]
