This Avalon NJ maternity session was the perfect celebration of love, light, and the quiet joy of a growing family on the beach at sunset.

We met just before golden hour, when the light turns warm and the ocean breeze feels extra peaceful. The mom-to-be radiated beauty as she walked barefoot along the shoreline, her hands gently cradling her bump. With her daughter by her side and her husband close behind, every moment felt full of meaning and anticipation.

The connection between this family came through in every frame. Her husband watched her with admiration, ready to support her at every step. Their daughter, wide-eyed and full of curiosity, couldn’t wait to explore the beach. She picked up seashells, ran through the tide, and leaned in for kisses and snuggles with her parents.

Their dog joined in on the fun, wagging his tail and staying close to his people. I love when families include their pets—it makes the session feel even more personal. This pup clearly knew he was part of something special.

The sunset cast a golden glow across the sand, making everything feel soft and dreamy. We captured the quiet in-between—the sweet season of waiting before life changes in the best possible way. These images will serve as a reminder of what life looked and felt like right before their family grew by one more heartbeat.

Maternity sessions like this one remind me why I love what I do. They honor motherhood, celebrate connection, and preserve the joy and wonder of growing families. When you pair that with Avalon’s peaceful beach and breathtaking sunsets, it’s pure magic.

If you’re expecting and want to capture the beauty of this moment, let’s plan a session that reflects your story.

Whether you’re drawn to the beach, your home, or another meaningful spot, this chapter deserves to be remembered. Reach out to me today to start planning your maternity session: Lauren@bokehlovephotography.net

Little Legend Sessions: Capture Your Child’s True Personality with Timeless Portraits

As parents, we all know how quickly our children grow and change. One moment, they’re just starting to speak their first words, and before you know it, they’re running around, full of energy and personality. These moments—these fleeting, precious moments—deserve to be captured, and what better way than through Little Legend Sessions?

At Bokeh Love Photography, we offer 15-minute black and white studio sessions designed to capture the essence of your child in a way that’s natural, fun, and stress-free. These sessions are all about documenting who your child truly is at this moment in time—whether they’re laughing, being a little silly, or showing off their spunky personality.

Why Choose a Little Legend Session?

Fast, Easy, and Fun

We get it—life with kids can be chaotic. That’s why these sessions are designed to be quick and easy! With just 15 minutes in the studio, there’s no need to plan for hours of prep, and no worrying about the weather. The session is designed to be fun and stress-free, so your child can just be themselves. The end result? Authentic, timeless portraits that you’ll cherish forever.

Studio Convenience

Outdoor photo sessions are great, but sometimes weather can be unpredictable—especially with little ones in tow. With Little Legend Sessions, you can forget about the hassle of packing for the weather. Our indoor studio provides a comfortable, controlled environment to focus on what really matters: your child. Whether it’s sunny or raining outside, your session will go off without a hitch.

Capture Their Personality

Every child is unique. Some are outgoing and love to show off their silly side, while others may be a little shyer or more introspective. No matter what your child’s personality is, a Little Legend Session is all about capturing who they are right now—the fun, the wild, the funny, and everything in between.

  • Is your child always making you laugh with their goofy expressions?
  • Do they have a little spunk that makes them stand out?
  • Are they the kind of kid who’s always in motion, exploring the world around them?

We’ll freeze that energy and emotion in time with portraits that feel true to who they are.

There’s something magical about black and white portraits. The simplicity of the image allows your child’s personality to shine without distractions. No fancy backdrops or props—just the beauty of your child’s spirit captured in stunning, classic portraits that will never go out of style.

What You’ll Get from a Little Legend Session

  • 15-minute studio session focused on fun, natural moments
  • Black and white portraits that highlight the essence of your child
  • A fast, easy, and stress-free experience that you and your child will enjoy
