Sunflower Sessions in South Jersey

I absolutely love sunflower sessions! They bring me pure joy to each and every single family I work with. There's something very special and becoming of those beautiful yellow, orange and red beauties. It wouldn't be called the Garden State, if we didn't grow them!

You normally can find a range of farms anywhere from North Jersey to South Jersey this time of year. As I am preparing my Maple Shade, New Jersey, studio, I will also be servicing my usual Salem and Gloucester counties in my area. It will be a very busy year! However, I am greatly looking forward as to what is to come!

A sunflower photo shoot can be special for several reasons:

1. Vibrant Beauty: Sunflowers are known for their striking, vibrant yellow petals and large, captivating blooms. Their bright and cheerful appearance adds a burst of color to photographs, creating a visually stunning backdrop that can instantly uplift the mood of the image.

2. Symbolism: Sunflowers often symbolize happiness, positivity, and a sunny disposition. Incorporating sunflowers into a photo shoot can evoke feelings of joy, warmth, and optimism. They can serve as a powerful visual representation of these emotions, making the photos more meaningful and uplifting.

3. Natural and Organic Setting: Sunflower fields provide a natural and organic setting for a photo shoot. Being surrounded by rows of tall sunflowers creates a picturesque and serene environment. The combination of nature's beauty and the human presence in the photographs can create a harmonious and captivating composition.

4. Seasonal and Timeliness: Sunflowers are typically in bloom during the summer and early fall seasons. Planning a sunflower photo shoot during this time allows you to capture the beauty of the fleeting season and the essence of the particular time of year. It can be a way to commemorate the summer or embrace the transition to fall.

5. Versatile Themes: Sunflowers can be incorporated into various themes and styles of photography. Whether it's a casual and playful shoot, a romantic couple session, a family portrait, or even a maternity shoot, sunflowers can add a unique and eye-catching element to the composition. Their versatility allows for creative exploration and expression.

6. Connection to Nature: Sunflower fields offer a connection to nature and the outdoors. They provide an opportunity to escape the urban environment and immerse oneself in the beauty of the natural world. This connection can enhance the overall experience of the photo shoot and create a sense of tranquility and harmony.

When planning a sunflower photo shoot, consider visiting sunflower farms or fields known for their blooming sunflowers. Coordinate the timing of the shoot to coincide with the peak bloom of the sunflowers. Experiment with different angles, poses, and compositions to make the most of the sunflowers' beauty. Whether it's capturing close-up shots of individual sunflowers or incorporating them as a backdrop for larger compositions, the presence of sunflowers can transform ordinary photographs into something truly special.

Sunflower sessions held in Salem County, New Jersey. Near Mannington, New Jersey.

I am offering these last minute sunflower sessions. I had to offer these last minute due to our schedule and what we could allow. However, we are actually running AHEAD of schedule this year. Also, the sunflowers are now in peak bloom in the South Jersey area.

Still Opening My Studio- 2020 Strong!

God gave you all a gift. He put that inside you. He gave you the gift of giving your absolute best with the minimal effort. Have you ever looked around you and said... "How did I get her in this point in life?" And where you can look around and see the blessings given all around you. Yes, you may have worked your booty off... but some of these gifts just come naturally in life.

Some of these gifts may include:

:Making people feel good 

:Making people laugh

:Photography 

:Intelligence- Always learning. Always growing. 

:Writing

:Friendship 

:Sunday Dinners 

Make 2020 YOUR YEAR. Own it. Taken in Medford, New Jersey.

I believe the gift I was given was to make people smile. Make them laugh. I am a total comedian at heart. I love capturing moments behind the lens and love reveling in moments and being in the moment sans camera. It's just always how I have been.

Even in this uneasy, crazy time... I still find humor. It's dark as we don't know what the future holds, but I have hope.

As photographers, you need to find your passion and what drives you as the artist you are.

Even doing a YOU series. Like individual adult portraits telling people’s love story. Or capturing the joy of family life. Listen to your heart and let it drive you to great heights.

Philadelphia Family Sessions. These bring me great joy!

Remember.... in the midst of this Corona virus. The person you are today... isn’t going to be the person you are a year from now or 10 years from now. Radiate love in every area of your life. Even if its at home at the moment.

I still plan to open my studio and make 2020 THE KICK BUTT YEAR. I may have been delayed, but it won't stop me from pursing my dream. Maple Shade, New Jersey here I come. I can't wait to be a part of the community. I'm very excited for what the future brings!
