A Typical Shooting Star Family Shoot
A Typical Shooting Star Family Photo Shoot
Here's another family shoot that was done last fall. I told you I was behind on getting things up on this blog, eh? This family came all the way from Medford, Burlington County. We started at the studio, here at Shooting Star in Salem County, South Jersey and then we went to a beautiful scouted location that is near my home. I love all my locations! These are scouted for their light, their elements. I love rustic, I love barn-styled shoots, I love nature!
A Tisket, A Tasket... A Strawberry Baby In A Basket
Photographing Babies
We've been having some very odd spring weather... Well I guess "normal weather" in what we see this time of year in South Jersey. Some days it gets hot out and up to 60+ degrees and then other days call for snow.I took advantage of the warmer weather the other day and I found a "strawberry" growing in our garden at Shooting Star! The baby girl I worked with is 11 months old and we put a strawberry cap on her with a green diaper cover... put her in an adorable basket and magic happened! She was such a doll to work with!The Shooting Star garden grounds are starting to come alive!

Family Photography is Always so much fun!
I am attempting to get some of my work up on here. I've been truly very busy! I'm writing two books and have been booking for this upcoming Spring and Summer for the photography business! I'm truly glad that the weather is starting to get a little warmer because I love working outdoors! I find that to be the most fun. Studio work is fine, but there is nothing like being outside! I just love most outdoor images. Am I wrong in feeling this way? Here's a family I did back in the fall! We had so much fun! Mom likes a little creativity so we tried to capture that! Our session was done here at our studio in Salem County!
