Wisteria Cottage Sessions

Life should be simple. It should be grand. We often get caught up in the day to day and forget to be present. We forget to enjoy and make time with the people who love us and that we surround ourselves with. Before you know it, it's a year later. A year that just whizzed by. Or a year that someone is no longer here with us and we miss their presence. We realize life is short and need to fill it more with laughter. More joy, more smiles, more moments. Time, unfortunately, does not stand still. This is why it's important to cherish each and every single day, as today, may be the last day you have.

And... this is precisely why I do, what I do and I enjoy every single second, in what I do for a living. I cannot tell you how blessed I am, that people hire me to capture this time, this moment in their lives. As time is fleeting. Kids grow. We age. Sickness approaches. Those we love and then one day they are no longer here. This is why it's important to capture and cherish as much as you can. This is what I love creating for every single family that I work with. Memories burned and captured forever in time.

As Kool & the Gang (I recently saw them in concert), puts it, the world is always changing. Nothing stays the same. We should cherish the life we live and cherish the love. That's my goal, personally this year and to bring that love over to my clients and capture that love of my families.

One place that truly encapsulates such timelessness and love, is the wisteria cottage. I fell in love, with this special place, over 8 years ago. Every single year, the wisteria puts on a dazzling and aromatic display of beauty. The cottage also reminds me of something you would see over in Europe. Time standing still, but here in New Jersey.

Please join me for my special Wisteria Cottage series from April 30th, May 1st and May 2nd. As we take a step back in time and enjoy the sweet smell of spring. Hope to see you here for this very special series, near and dear to my heart.

2019 Tulip Sessions in Southern New Jersey

I love tulip sessions! I have done these just about every single year since I started photography. They sell out every year and just about every year, we win an award for our photography. This is something I love and hold dear in our beautiful Garden State!

This lovely family from Gloucester County hired us. I can't take the credit for the styling in this, it's all mom! Thanks Mom! You did a fantastic job with this! If wanting to know where the little guy's outfit came from... wait for it... it came from Amazon!!!

I could not get over how sweet this dynamic duo is with one another. We definitely have a little gentlemen in our presence!

I love shooting at my little patch every single year! The pop of color truly shines. I love the spring light. I just really love my little magical place. It's private property and the family who owns it, lets me get to cherish it, every year!

NOTHING is better than getting true captures in South Jersey. Love a genuine smile over a fake "cheese" smile, any day!

With every season, it's my attention to give you the best! That means lots of fun and twirls!

Nothing like a magical twirl. Her face is priceless! Southern New Jersey Portrait Session!

Mr. Handsome Sauce.. hamming it up for the camera!

I hope you enjoyed this little "sneak peak" into the series. I loved working with this brother and sister combo! I hope to see them again soon!

Happy Shooting, my friends! -Dee Shooting Star Photography,

See you again, South Jersey!

Pick those beautiful tulips.. little lady!
