2026 Beach Mini Sessions Are Almost Here: Everything You Need to Know

There is just something magical about summer at the Jersey Shore.

Barefoot little ones running through the sand. Wind-tousled hair. The sound of waves crashing in the background as your family laughs together, completely unaware of the camera. These are the moments that become the photographs you'll treasure long after the season has passed.

I'm so excited to officially announce that 2026 Beach Mini Sessions will be opening for booking on June 15th at 8:30 PM.

And if history has taught me anything, it's this: these sessions don't last long.

A Summer Tradition Families Look Forward To

Every year, my beach mini sessions become one of the highlights of my photography season. Families return year after year to document growing children, celebrate milestones, and preserve this fleeting chapter of life in a beautiful, effortless way.

Whether you're updating your family portraits, capturing the sweet bond between siblings, or simply wanting images that reflect the joy of summer, these sessions are designed to give you timeless photographs without the commitment of a full-length session.

2026 Beach Mini Session Details

  • 4 digital images included
  • $350
  • Limited summer dates:
    • July 13th
    • July 20th
    • August 3rd

Because these sessions are intentionally limited, only a small number of spots are available on each date.

Why These Sessions Sell Out

Beach minis are the perfect balance of relaxed and efficient.

They're short enough for young children with limited attention spans, yet carefully designed to capture a beautiful variety of images. We'll create a mix of posed portraits and authentic moments—snuggles, laughter, sandy toes, and everything in between.

The result? A gallery filled with images that feel natural, joyful, and unmistakably you.

Many of my families book these sessions year after year, which means availability becomes increasingly limited. If you've been considering booking, I truly encourage you not to wait.

Once the schedule is full, I am unable to accommodate additional mini session requests.

An Exclusive Jersey Shore Experience

Beach sessions take place exclusively at a picturesque, private Monmouth County beach that offers an incredible variety of scenery in one location.

From rolling dunes and lush beach grasses to a charming jetty and soft stretches of sand, the setting provides multiple beautiful backdrops for your session—all within a short walking distance.

To preserve both the privacy of my clients and the exclusivity of this experience, the exact location is shared only after booking is complete.

What I can promise is this: it is one of my absolute favorite places to photograph families along the Jersey Shore.

If beach portraits have been on your wish list, set a reminder, grab your spot early, and let's create something beautiful together before another summer slips away.

I cannot wait to see familiar faces and welcome new families as we capture another season of sandy hugs, golden sunsets, and memories you'll cherish for years to come.

Summer only lasts a moment. Let's preserve it beautifully.
