Professional Dog Photography

“Dogs do speak, but only to the that know how to listen” – Orhan Pamuk

professional dog photographer in NJ New Jersey

I know that you love your dog as much as I do mine, and as a professional dog photographer I also know that you want great photos of your dog. Many people think that because their dog is not trained or does not do well off of a leash that they could never have a great photo of their dog made. This is just not true, whether your dog is a perfect listener or a complete lunatic, with over 35 years experience working with animals, I’ll be able to get a great photo of your dog. The guy above had a leash on, but with today’s digital magic and some artistry skills, I was able to remove it. No one would ever know he was not the complete gentleman.

Whether your dog is a newbie, or getting close to crossing over that bridge, and if you would like a great photo to remember him or her,

Not all family beach portraits in Corolla, Duck and the entire Outer Banks are at the beach!

Many times not all members of your large family group vacationing with you are “beach people”, and a family portrait on the be would not represent your family at it’s best.

Or perhaps some members of your family are not psychically able to be on the beach and this is the first time their entire family has been together in years, and a group portrait of the whole family is what they really, really want.

Maybe the weather is not cooperating, and they cannot reschedule because of logistics.

When you hire me, this is never a problem, over the years I’ve photographed thousands of families of all sizes, with many special needs, and in many different locations, both indoors and out……..I know how to pivot when need be.

Patience and planning are always a requirement when working with larger groups, especially on the beach! Do your homework when choosing a beach portrait photographer. Call him or her. Ask questions! Get a feel of their attitude and professionalism. The clients I serve are generally in the Corolla, Duck, Souther Shores, Kitty Hawk, Kill Devil Hills, Inlet Beach, and Nags Head areas, which means I serve a lot of out-of-towners. Your time is precious, so don’t just hire any beach photographer for your portrait session! Make sure that they know how to work with groups, are not mainly wedding photographers, and know how to pivot! Contact me anytime for availability or other information. I’m always happy to help!

Classic Belly Baby Portraits

When is the last time you saw a “belly baby” portrait?

They used to be oh so common, but nowadays not so much, they’ve kind of become a lost art.

In the old days when I had studios, we used to photograph hundreds of babies this way, and even before that, in the late 70’s and early 80’s, when I worked for the volume portrait companies, not Sears or JC Penney, but similar operations, I worked with and photographed thousands of belly babies, talk about a great way to learn and polish your craft.

In other words, I know my stuff, which is great for you since your baby will only be 3 – 5 or so months old once. When you hire me you know you know that the results will be great.

Classic Portraiture Is So Timeless, And Never Goes Out Of Style

When you and your baby are ready to to get started, just call or click, and I’ll explain how easy it is for you have a classic “Baby Belly” of your own!

Photos Of Young Children And Families On The Beach In Corolla OBX

It’s funny how often people inquire and say they have babies or little ones so don’t think they’ll do well on a shoot. I literally hear this all the time. As someone who photographs primarily families, I can honestly say babies and especially toddlers enjoy the beach as much as anyone else and are always engaged, they give us so many moments of exploration, love, and genuine curiosity to watch unfold in our time together. If there was ever something I’d want to hold to, it would be that time.

Worried Your Little Ones Won’t Cooperate? Don’t Be.

As one of the most experienced Corolla photographers and a specialist in Outer Banks family portraits, I hear it all the time—“We have a baby or a toddler, so we’re not sure how well they’ll do in a photo session.”

Let me assure you: babies, toddlers, and young children are often the stars of the session.

In my 40+ years of photographing families—especially in Corolla, Duck, and throughout the Outer Banks—I’ve found that little ones are naturally drawn to the beach. The sand, the breeze, the waves—it’s all an adventure. And it shows. Whether they’re exploring seashells, clinging to Mom and Dad, or simply being themselves, young children give us some of the most genuine, love-filled moments you’ll ever see captured in a family portrait.

If you’ve been hesitant to book a session because your child is young—now is actually the perfect time. These are the moments you’ll want to hold onto forever.

📸 Interested in a relaxed, professional beach photo session with one of the most trusted Outer Banks photographers? Whether you’re staying in Corolla or Duck, NC, I’ll guide you through every step to make it easy and enjoyable.
