August 7th Beach Day
The Jersey Shore has some great beaches to take portraits on. Sunset beach pictures are absolutely exquisite… unfortunately we live on the east coast and we get sunRISES on the beach which are just as beautiful, you’ll just have to wake up a bit early.
I already have a maternity session booked and I would like to make a morning out of it. Time slots are as follows:
7:30-8am
8:15-8:45am
9-9:30am
Come get your portraits taken and then make a day out of staying at the beach. Sessions will be discounted
$200 $175
30 minute time block.
5 digitals (take advantage, I won’t be including digitals much longer) chosen from a gallery of the entire session. I then edit them in Photoshop to perfection.
Location- Asbury Park Beach
Who needs a headshot?
WHO NEEDS A HEADSHOT?
First I’ll explain and then I’ll ask. Headshot- n. a photograph of someone's face, especially a promotional photograph of a model, actor, or author. This definition is somewhat dated. With the importance of social media, everyone putting themselves out there needs one.
Entrepreneurs - You’re starting from scratch and people want to know who you are. People respond to visuals much more than just some bio. Putting your best foot forward is key when networking and doing the leg work to promote your business.
Professionals- Doctors, lawyers, and real estate agents are constantly promoting or being printed in some amazing newsletter, magazine, or newspaper for the amazing work they do.
Social Media Influencers- Content is king when it comes to social media and when it comes to visuals, Instagram is the kingdom. Headshots, glamour shots, and behind the scene shots are currency. LinkedIn is becoming a close 2nd, if not more important, for headshots.
Now I ask again… Who needs a headshot?
Full day rates, half day rates, and individual headshots are available.

Reasons you need prints in your life (Copy)
Reasons you need prints in your life.
While I love and respect the posting and sharing of my clients’ images after one of my photoshoots, I feel like clients should go the extra mile and get those images printed. It doesn’t even have to be through me. I’m in the process of getting photo release cards so clients don’t run the risk of other places not printing my photography. If you take the time and spend the money on a shoot, some sort of physical product should be purchased as well. If you just take the digital prints and never do anything with them you run the risk of losing the USB and your computer crashing. Yes this is worse case scenario it won’t happen right away. I only archive my clients’ images for a year or so.
Showing off the digital images can be a nuisance also. You need to be near a computer. You need to find the USB if it’s not saved on your computer. Physical products are usually on a coffee table, on your wall, or make your mornings bright when you hold your coffee mug with my images on them. You see these products every day.
You have choices as well. You’re free to take your images to Walmart or Costco. I don’t recommend it. I won’t stop you. I will warn you that the quality and colors will most likely be subpar. The quality of those products won’t compare with manufactures that strictly deal with professional photographers. Screens are calibrated and images are color corrected so you receive the best image possible.
Yes it will cost more. There is nothing wrong with going the less expensive route. Quality will make your images stand out though. Just what ever you do, don’t let your image collect dust hidden in a drawer.

Maternity to Cake Smash: the Long Game (update).
I was super excited about my clients coming back for a cake smash. It was a long journey: Pregnancy announcement, maternity, newborn, and now cake smashes. They came out great. ENJOY!
