Types of Engagement Sessions

Not sure which engagement session is right for you? I’m happy to share that I offer three different options to fit your specific needs. All engagement sessions include an online gallery to view, download, print, and share your images as well as a print release so that you can print your images at your choice of printer.

Engagement Session A

Option A is perfect for the couple who wants the full engagement session experience complete with extended time and two outfits. Here’s what this option includes:

  • 90 minute session
  • Two outfits
  • 150+ Images
  • Includes 60 miles from Zip 07731
  • Travel fee add-on is available for locations such as Skylands Manor, Hoboken, Cape May, NYC, Philadelphia, and all other locations outside of New Jersey.

Engagement Session B

Option B is perfect for the couple who wants plenty of images from their session but only wants to wear one outfit. Here’s what this option includes:

  • 45 minute session
  • One outfit
  • 100 Images
  • Includes 60 miles from Zip 07731

Location ideas

Spring Lake Engagement Session by Spring Lake Wedding Photographer

Spring Lake

If you are looking to include both a park and a beach as a backdrop for your engagement photos, look no further.  Spring Lake is a wonderful little beach town that has it all.  It has a great park and a lake with two lovely bridges only a block away from the beach.  Start your session out at the park and end it with a few shots on the boardwalk and beach!  See an engagement shoot in Spring Lake here: Spring Lake NJ Engagement Photos

 Asbury Park Boardwalk

I always enjoy a session at the Asbury Park Boardwalk; there are just so many wonderful backdrops for a session.  To name a few:  the old casino and its colorful murals, Convention Hall, a long jetty, and the beach! If you want a beach session where old meets new, this is most definitely the place.  You can view our most recent Asbury Park engagement session here:  Asbury Park Boardwalk Engagement Session.

 Lavallette

If you’re looking for a beach engagement session location with beautiful backlit images and an amazing sunset, Lavallette is a perfect choice. Click here to view a session there: Lavallette NJ Engagement Session

Allaire State Park

If you are looking for a rustic location with lots of greenery and/or fall foliage then Allaire State Park is a great option. There are several historic buildings and barns that lend a lot of variety to this location, too. To see this location click here:  Allaire State Park Engagement Photos.

Laurita Winery

Laurita Winery is one of my favorite spots for engagement sessions! It has a gorgeous vineyard with the most beautiful light in the late afternoon. Plus, um, wine? Yes, please! View a session at Laurita Winery here: Laurita Winery Engagement Photos

Manasquan NJ Engagement Photos

Manasquan

If you’d like to have engagement photos on the beach and don’t want to get up at sunrise for backlit images, Fisherman’s Cove in Manasquan is ideal. It’s right by the Manasquan Inlet and the beach by this hidden gem is one of the only spots in Monmouth County where you can have the sun setting as a backdrop during an evening beach session.
