Ocean City, NJ- Family Photography in Pastels

Here’s another photo session we did in Ocean City, NJ. This time it was with three little boys and the most gorgeous little girl! They perfectly complimented the beach scenery so let’s take a look at this dreamy beach session!

As the temperature starts to rise, and the sun starts to shine brighter, I find myself longing for the beach and the summer at the Jersey Shore. There's something about the salt air, the sound of the waves crashing, and the feeling of sand between my toes that just can't be replicated anywhere else.
