Beach Portraits at the Ventnor Fishing Pier in New Jersey are some of my favorite. It’s more than just an evening at the beach; it’s an opportunity to create lasting memories and capture the moments of our children’s growth through photography.

The Importance of Family Time

In our fast-paced lives, it’s crucial to carve out time to spend with our children. These moments of togetherness are the building blocks of their childhood, the memories they’ll carry into adulthood. The beach provides a perfect backdrop for these moments. The laughter as we build sandcastles, the joy in their eyes as they chase waves, and the warmth of the sun on our faces—all these little things matter.

Creating Memories

Each year, we notice the subtle changes in our children. They grow taller, their faces mature, and their personalities develop. These changes are beautifully captured in your annual family beach photography session. The Ventnor Fishing Pier, with its rustic charm and panoramic views, offers a picturesque setting to freeze these moments in time.

Photography allows us to look back and remember the fun we had, the milestones we achieved, and the love we shared. It’s a way to hold onto the past while embracing the future.

The Tradition of Family Portraits

Making family portraits a yearly tradition is a wonderful way to document the passage of time. As our children grow and change, these photos become a visual diary of their childhood. Each year, we all look forward to seeing how they’ve grown not just physically but also emotionally and mentally.

These sessions aren’t just about the perfect picture. They’re about capturing the essence of who you are as a family at that moment in time. They remind us to celebrate the now and appreciate the journey we’re on together.

The Beach: A Happy Place

The beach has always been a place of joy and relaxation for families. There’s something magical about the sound of the waves, the feeling of the sand between your toes, and the endless horizon that brings peace and happiness. The beach is a place where we can unwind, have fun, and connect with each other away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Every season at the beach brings its own unique beauty and experiences. From the bright, sunny days of summer to the serene, misty mornings of fall, the beach is a place to be celebrated year-round. Sessions  with Bokeh Love Photography capture these seasonal changes and the beauty of nature, reminding us of the ever-changing yet constant joy the beach brings.

Family Portraits at Ridley Creek are always my absolute favorite! As a photographer with a yearly permit for Ridley Creek, I’m privileged to capture beautiful family moments in one of the most stunning locations in the area.

Whether it’s the vibrant blooms of spring, the rich greenery of summer, the warm hues of fall, or the serene beauty of winter, the park provides a picturesque setting that enhances every photograph.

Nature’s Beauty Meets Historic Charm

One of the unique features of Ridley Creek is its perfect blend of natural beauty and historic charm. The park boasts a variety of hand-crafted stone structures, including historic steps and arches that add an element of timeless elegance to any photo session. These features not only provide a stunning contrast to the lush greenery but also tell a story of their own, adding depth and character to your Family Portraits at Ridley Creek.

Hot Cocoa Cup Sessions are a lot of work, but they are so adorable. Your babies are only little once, why not take every possible moment to capture how cute they are!

What to expect at a Hot Cocoa Cup Session, aside from your adorable baby/toddler in a cocoa cup:

•What’s the cut off age? These sessions are perfect for sitters to 4 or 5 years old. We have two difference sized cocoa cups, one for the smaller babies and one for the large toddlers/kids. After 5, it gets a little tricky because of their size, and ability to fit into the cup comfortably.

•What’s in the cup? A mixture of warm water and chocolate milk. Please let me know ahead of time if your child has an allergy and we can adjust our ingredients. We also include giant marshmallows.

•Is it warm in your studio? Yes! We keep the heat cranking during these sessions because it can get chilling and uncomfortable sitting in liquid! We also have towels ready.

•What to bring? Bring a warm change of clothes. A towel or two. Your child’s favorite snack, in case they don’t like marshmallows. (For example, a gingerbread cookie, crackers, etc.) Baby wipes, in case there is drool or food on your child’s face. Expect to be hands on to help things run smoothly!

•What should they wear? You can dress your child in some festive clothes! The best thing to do is have them wear a swim diaper, and a red/white bathing suit, suspenders and a bow tie, fun barrettes for their hair, or even a top hat, or bonnet!

•Do you have props? I do have props available if you would like to use them! I have things like fun headbands, bonnets, etc. (My prop collection is ever growing!)

Hot Cocoa Cup Sessions are a lot of fun for both the parents and the child. We try to make it a good experience, and encourage little ones to splash! They don’t need to look at the camera, I actually prefer them to enjoy the moment and have natural smiles and interact with the marshmallows, and hot cocoa. Which, is just warm liquid. It’s a unique experience that they won’t be able to do forever. Don’t miss out on this, because in the blink of an eye, they’re too big and you’ll miss out. Don’t miss it. Even if you think it’s silly, you’ll look back and be so happy you did it.

Our 2023 sessions came to an end and I am so excited to announce that I will be offering them again in 2024. Currently, I am planning to have them in early November. Save the date, and if you’d like to book early, booking is now open for November 2024.
