Their Session: Island Beach State Park, NJ

It’s been such a dream getting these two in front of my camera multiple times over the last few years! Their Island Beach State Park maternity session did not disappoint – plenty of sweet snuggles and pizza for you to scroll through!!

Caitlin and Derek are one of my adorable wedding couples! It feels like forever ago since their adorable Princeton engagement session because they’ve been through SO many life changes!

They were supposed to tie the knot this year but the pandemic had other plans! They postponed their wedding (and we took pictures at their house on their original date to honor it!) and then found out they were pregnant – with twin boys!! Somewhere down the line – becuase COVID times were such a blur – they also modeled for a mentoring session I had up in Jersey City!

They decided to focus on the babies at this time and will celebrate their marriage soon! We captured their maternity session on this private beach to celebrate the last few weeks of them being a family of two (well, 3 with their sweet pup)! These pizza lovers went BIG and brought the most ginormous pizza ever, it was so much fun for photos! Since their sesh, they welcomed two adorable boys into the world! <3

Caitlin & Derek,

Thank you for continuing to choose me for your milestones. It means the world that you enjoy this photography experience time and time again, and that we can keep creating magic together! I can’t wait for your big day when the time comes to celebrate your love again! Your Island Beach State Park maternity session is truly one of my faves!! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness with your family – you are already such incredible parents!! xo
