Scotch Plains | Newborn | Mars

I am so excited to introduce you to my newest baby cousin, Martin! And how ridiculously adorable is it that he is going to go by the name “Mars”??? My cousin was calling him Mars Bars!!! <3.

Allie added a maternity session onto her Newborn Session and the results are nothing short of incredible! God do I wish I had images documenting the beauty of pregnancy. She killed her session and we had so much fun creating these super special SURPRISE images for her her husband. But you know what always happens? When we think we are getting portraits done as a gift for someone else, they ALWAYS end up being a gift to ourself. I know that Allie will be able to look back on these images years down the line and think to herself, “Damn! I am a magnificent Goddess!”…because, well, just LOOK! She is a GD Goddess!

Mars joins his 2 other brothers, Caden and Owen, who are just the cutest and sweetest little boys. Caden is totally head over heels in love with his momma and will randomly just call out,”Mom, I love you”. And Owen is a fantastic big brother and I know that he will be such a great helper with Mars.

My cousin Rob is no stranger to boy families. In fact, my mom and his dad come from a family of 7 kids. Five of which were boys (my poor grandma LOL)! And Rob has 2 brother and a sister of his own. I also have 2 brothers. Boys just run STRONG in our family! And I know that Robert is an amazing dad and these boys are so lucky to call him theirs.

Robert John and Allie I feel so blessed to have been able to document this time in your life. I am so excited I got to meet Baby Mars and see my little cousins Caden and Owen. And most importantly I am so happy I got to see you both and the wonderful way you work together as a team and make this all look so easy and natural <3

Scotch Plains Newborn Photographer | Noah

Another amazing newborn sesh that I can’t believe was TWO MONTHS AGO! Noah is probably walking and talking already! LOL, I kid, I kid. But seriously, the time is FLYING by!

This boy was so incredibly chill for his session. I am thinking it’s because his mom and dad were too. What I love the most is when a family can come in, sit down, relax and just let me do my thang! And it gives mom and dad a break too. You can watch tv, catch up on emails, scroll your instagram feed, or literally nap. I made sure I got a comfy couch when I knew I was moving to a studio space.

I had so much fun during this session. Noah let me do whatever I wanted. And mom and dad are the absolute cutest and I can just see so much love between them and now for their newest addition.

2 things I REALLY love about this shoot is the amazing silhouette shots we got and the ones of dad holding his son. It was a last minute thing honestly. I saw some tattoos peeking through his shirt and well, knew we needed some shots of HIS art with his newest work of ART. You see, I am a photographer, yes. But I am also an artist. And I appreciate art. And although I only have 1 tattoo myself, one that I didn’t get until I was 37 years YOUNG, I really freakin’ love tattoos. So that’s what we did. We took some artsy tattoo portraits.

Here are some of my favorites from Noah’s Newborn session.

Scotch Plains Newborn Photographer | Cyril

It’s been a minute since I posted, but that just means I’ve ben busy! Which is a great thing! I’ve been lucky to be able to photograph a number of babies in the last few months. I consider myself a “Joan” of all Trades when it comes to what I like to photograph. But really, newborns have my heart. I feel so lucky to be able to capture all their little features in the first days of life. Not only to be able to capture them with my camera, but just being in their presence. It’s an amazing thing. It’s magical. And it literally fills my heart and soul. It reminds me what a miracle life is and how incredibly lucky we are to be able to have this experience here on this planet.

Here are some pics of Baby Cyril. Such a little peanut with incredible skin. Thank you for trusting me to capture your sweet little guy <3
