Family beach days have a way of becoming tradition. The routines change, the kids grow, but the feeling stays the same. As an Ocean City NJ family photographer, my approach is relaxed and natural, allowing families to enjoy being together while I capture the moments that bring you back to this place, year after year.
At the beach, the best moments happen in between. Sessions are calm and unhurried, allowing kids to explore and parents to stay present. I’ll guide you when needed, but the focus is on letting your family be themselves. Kids get to move, parents get to relax, and the experience feels more like time together than a photoshoot.
You’ll receive all the edited images from your session in color and B&W (no choosing favorites, no hidden tiers). If it tells the story, it’s yours.
Sessions typically take place in Ocean City in the early morning or evening, when the beach is calmer and the light is at its best. Sessions are paced comfortably, with time for classic portraits, extended family combinations, and candid moments in between—so everything feels organized without feeling structured.
* Wardrobe guidance to help everyone feel comfortable and coordinated
* Ocean City location recommendations and scouting
* A relaxed session tailored to your family’s energy
* All-inclusive digital images—everything we create together is yours to keep
* Help selecting framed art and albums you’ll treasure for years
* A seamless process from start to finish, crafted for families who value beautiful imagery without the stress
My full-service approach keeps everything simple and enjoyable, so your family photos fit seamlessly into your time down the shore.

"Courtney took absolutely beautiful family photos for us at the beach, despite my son coming down with a bad cold and ear infection the day before! We highly recommend her!"
Every session includes thoughtful planning, a relaxed beach experience, and a curated gallery of professionally edited images. Extended family sessions are available and priced based on group size.
The best way to begin is by reaching out to share a bit about your family and your time in Ocean City. From there, we’ll plan a session that fits seamlessly into your beach week.
I totally get it, life happens! For unexpected events like sickness or family emergencies, I allow one reschedule.
If there's a good chance of rain or if the weather is unsafe, we can reschedule and your payment will go towards a future date.
Your gallery will be delivered via your email within 3 weeks of your session date.
