Located in Point Pleasant, this is my happy place and I'm so excited to invite you to an upcoming Open House! This event is for you if...
You're invited!
- you'd like to see what we offer and check out our most recent sample albums, custom frames, and other products in person
- you're interested in learning more about what you can do with your most meaningful images.
- you want an engagement, anniversary, family, or other portrait session but you're overwhelmed by all the planning a photo session entails
- you have meaningful photos that haven't made it into an album and you just keep putting it off
- you'd love to get your parents a parent album or other photo keepsake from your wedding!
- you have empty walls in your home that you're looking to fill with beautiful images but don't know where to start
at idalia, WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO MAKE YOUR HOME A MORE BEAUTIFUL PLACE with custom wall art
As you build your home together, we'd love for it to be a place filled with imagery that reminds you each and every day of how much you are loved.
We offer an amazing line of curated products just for you. As Idalia Clients, we promise to help you choose images, sizes, frames, print products, and special keepsakes that decorate your home now and for generations to come. Your images deserve a little more fanfare than a simple online gallery and my dedicated design team will assist you in helping you fill the walls of your home with your most meaningful images.
OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU
Our luxury portrait experience allows you to savor moments with your fiancé, spouse, or family while we take care of all the planning. After we talk about your vision for your next portrait session, we'll take care of the rest - from wardrobe styling, hair & makeup for local sessions, to the installation of artwork in your home. We are here to care for the tiniest of details while ensuring your family's legacy is preserved for generations.
PLANNING SESSIONS
WHAT'S NEW in 2023
Located in a standalone building in Point Pleasant, this special place is filled with natural light, offers a cozy place for you to see our sample albums, frames, and products, and have your hair and makeup done for studio and local shoots. We're so excited to help you hand-select the products that will best meet your needs.
THE STUDIO
We believe everyone should feel amazing for their portraits! We now offer professional hair and makeup for all studio and local sessions so that you can look and feel your best during our sessions together. We will coordinate on your behalf, making your scheduling stress-free while leaving you confident and beautiful.
PRO HAIR & MAKEUP
We've all been there. We've stressed over what to wear and waited until the last minute only to have the wrong size. The process of portraits can be stressful and our mission is to care for every detail from start to finish, starting with the ladies. You'll be able to try on dresses and get feedback on the most flattering style and colors.
CLIENT CLOSET
Continued support by my entire team. From a stylist to help you with your outfits to my design team to help customize all of your artwork and albums to my installer who will come to your home to install your artwork, I'm proud to now offer a full-service photography experience from start to finish that encompasses the talents and strengths of my entire team.
DESIGN SUPPORT
No more nagging hubby to put up those picture frames for you! All artwork includes in-home installation for the NJ/NY/PA area. As soon as your artwork arrives, we'll schedule a time for my team to come install your custom wall art on your walls so that you can start enjoying it as soon as possible.

A minimony is even smaller than a microwedding and typically includes no more than a dozen guests or so. Although smaller, minimonies typically include many of the traditions found at a larger wedding. Think: a commitment ceremony, florals, a catered meal, beautiful portraits.

This is probably already a term you're familiar with. A couple can't wait to be married and they want to skip the traditional ceremony, so they find a witness and someone to conduct the ceremony. Think: Pam & Jim at Niagra Falls in The Office. These days, elopements might be spur of the moment but they may also be planned. Romantic locations, beautiful attire and intimate images of the two of you.

ARE YOU READY TO PLAN YOUR 2023 PORTRAIT EXPERIENCE?
YES! By limiting the number of weddings I do each year, I am able to offer portrait photography on a limited basis.
Absolutely! I'd love to see you in person and show you our most recent sample albums. This will help you envision what you'd like for your own album *and* you'll be able to check out our full swatch kit to help you choose your album cover. You'll also be able to chat with us about custom framing options *and* plan your engagement session if you haven't solidified that already.
YES! All my sessions are completely custom to fit you and your needs. Let's talk about your vision and chat about how we can help make that happen for you!
We now offer custom framing with in-home installations. Come talk to us about those empty walls and we'll share our ideas with you, show you mockups, and help you choose among our dozens of framing options.
Three words: custom wall art! We've been working hard behind the scenes to curate the most beautiful frames and we've purchased the most amazing software that allows us to create custom wall galleries using photos of YOUR home. We can't wait to show you how we can help you create wall art galleries for your home to show off all those beautiful images that are sitting on your hard drive.
