Boys Will Be Boys in South Jersey

What does it mean to be a boy? Oh, boy.  I love boys.  I have one of my own.    There's always a certain kind of magical element watching your child grow and to see the testosterone starting and play its role in their ongoing physical and emotional development. Boyhood is a time where you explore, play, wander on adventures, and develop such an unexplained curiosity for the world around you.I think what is even more special with these boys, is that they are brothers. You see their "brotherhood" in which is defined as this (when you look it up in the dictionary)... A friendship that cannot be compared to any other, built out of sincerity and love, will always have each others backs. You see this in these images.  The love and mutual respect, they as brothers, have for one another.  Which is why I absolutely loved this session! You see the bond that they have screaming out loud and clear, in these images.

Keep Taking Photographs Of Your Kids... You'll be a pro or semi-pro... in no time!

I learn a little more everyday and in hopes to improve. Anywho, I'm getting off subject! I'm telling you moms and dads out there to try and make the effort of learning photography and taking better photographs of your kids. Learn how to shoot in manual mode (you will thank me). Read your camera manual over and over again until it sticks in that noggin of yours! Trust me, you do not need a fancy camera! That is all bull in this industry.

This South Jersey Gal Loves Working With People!

To be a successful photographer in South Jersey, it's actually more personality than the technical stuff. Us South Jerseyans are all about personality! Truly!

Some say, being successful is the 80/20 rule. 80% technical and 20% your understanding of settings, lenses, cameras, depth of field, and studying light. I am always a student by learning, studying, and taking classes! Knowledge is power and it also helps to keep me on my toes. I make it a point to learn something new and practice daily!
