You know how they say “never judge a book by its cover?”  Well, the same applies to people!  More specifically, Kristen and Justin!  Kristen is super calm, quiet, and has the sweetest smile. I would have never guessed that she has such an adventurous spirit!  Besides backpacking to countries I’ve never seen (by herself!), Justin proposed to Kristen […]

April and Steve (and let us “knot” forget Spencer!) got married on Friday, and I am so happy to have been there!  I met April years ago when she asked me to do a photo shoot, and to hear from her again, this time engaged, I was thrilled to say yes to her wedding date!  I […]

fall wedding at natirar

I woke up Sunday morning with rainy skies, but a joyful spirit as I packed up my car for my 10 minute drive to Natirar for Courtney and Calvin’s wedding.  Kelly and I met these two (well four, because we had some adorable puppy props!) in Liberty State Park, where we photographed their engagement session.  […]

I think the number one thing I love about weddings is seeing what the best day of my couples’ lives looks like.  For Brenton, the best day of his life was marrying Jessica for sure.  See that picture up there?  He looks at her like that all the time!  I’ve been married a pretty long time, […]

I bet Nicole and Craig had no idea that their Fall wedding would feel more like summer than this summer did!  I’m not complaining here!  The summer was filled with rain storms and less than ideal beach days.  Enter in September, and summer has arrived!  Or at least, it felt like it on Saturday at […]

Home Sweet Harding, NJ When I first met with Anne-Marie and her Mom at her childhood home in Harding, she had so many great ideas for her wedding day pictures.  Most of these locations were described to me as “the field down the street” and “the Sycamore lined drive.”  I never did nail down an […]

A Classic, Intimate Summer Wedding It’s not very often that I get to photograph intimate weddings, but they are some of my favorites!  From the moment I walked through the door at Brittney’s childhood home, I felt welcome and so comfortable with her sisters, who made up her bridal party, along with her baby niece.  […]

Natirar Mansion’s Re-Opening! Many years ago, my husband (then boyfriend) and I would drive around the Somerset Hills “Mansion hunting,” while he gave me a brief history of all the great houses that surround us.  One of them was Natirar, “Raritan” spelled backwards after the Raritan River it sits on, in case you didn’t already […]

An Elegant and Timeless Wedding at Hamilton Farm We spent so much time with Samantha and Eric, that by the time their wedding day arrived on Friday, we knew half the family!  We had the pleasure of photographing Eric’s sister, Gabrielle’s wedding at Ninety Acres back in October, and she recommended me to Samantha.  Gabrielle and […]
