Maternity Sessions have been rocking in South Jersey
It's been a whirlwind this last week with many ups and downs and cliffs in between! We have had so many inquiries the last few weeks and we're unfortunately having to turn some folks away at this time! In an effort for less inquiries, I have had to raise my prices in hopes that inquiries will decrease a bit.For anyone inquiring, right now, the schedule is looking pretty full for the rest of the year! We do have very limited session availability at this time and we are almost booked out for the rest of this calendar year.

My First Maternity Shoot In South Jersey!
On a picturesque day in the heart of New Jersey, Shooting Star Photography LLC embarked on a captivating photo shoot at the Westville Wheelabrator Reserve. Nestled amidst the serene beauty of nature, this location was the epitome of rustic charm. As the sun's soft rays filtered through the vibrant foliage, our team eagerly set up our equipment to capture the essence of this hidden gem. The reserve's lush greenery, winding trails, and tranquil ponds provided the perfect backdrop for our subjects. We effortlessly framed shots that blended the grandeur of the Reserve with the subtle grace of our models, creating striking compositions. With every click of the shutter, we immortalized the raw beauty that Westville Wheelabrator Reserve had to offer, leaving us enchanted by the magic we had created.
