Family Photographer Ocean City, NJ

Hi, I’m Arianna!

Hey! I wanted to add a little bio about me and what you can expect from your session. I am so happy that you have found your way to my page and I hope to work with you in the future.

I grew up in South Jersey, married to my high school sweetheart and have two children together. Most of my days are spent with my kiddos, editing images and running around to different kids activities. In my spare time I love to garden, cook and explore places with my family.

My childhood memories growing up in Hammonton inspire many of my sessions. I grew up in our family farmhouse that was built well over 100 years ago. I use my parents house and field for many of my sessions. I’ve spent many years of my life exploring the beautiful fields, woods and trails. I’ve even taken down my mothers vintage curtains and hung them on the clothesline for a few sessions.

Photography was not something I had always planned on doing. I graduated from Stockton University with a degree in Literature and Education. I had always imagined myself as a teacher. Never in a million years would I have thought I would have an artistic career.

My photography journey began in 2015, when my daughter was a toddler. She was growing so quickly and I needed a way to freeze time. Friends and family began to reach out to me for photo sessions. It felt so good to create images that people would look back on and cherish. I knew this was something that I wanted to do professionally.

Capturing real life moments is what made me fall in love with lifestyle photography. I use prompts during most of my sessions to get a very organic and real connection to show in your images. I melt over the images of children hugging mom, laughing at dad, a mom-to-be gently cradling her bump or a newly engaged couple having a moment together. I like to keep sessions relaxed and fun.

My work is done in outdoor settings with the exception of lifestyle newborn sessions. All my sessions take place at golden hour (1 hour before sunset) for the most flattering lighting except the home sessions which take place in the mornings. My goal is to create memories that last a lifetime and tell your story.

Contact me anytime, I would love to speak with you!
