I am SO happy you are here! My boutique photography studio is located on Chadwick Beach Island in Toms River, New Jersey 08735. Open by appointment only. If you are booking a studio session, you will be traveling to my home studio in Chadwick Beach. I believe it also provides an unparalleled level of trust to those that may not know me personally prior to our session because my studio is on the same property as my home.
I do not take my career lightly. Handing your brand new baby that you have been carefully caring for since you found out you were pregnant to a new person, professional or not, can be a little unsettling. Rest assured that I am thoroughly trained to be handling your little one safely throughout the session.

Not only was losing our first home and all of our belongings an eye opener, but I have also just lost both of my parents within the last 2 years. Why am I sharing this on my about page? Marianne was incredible to work with for our newborn photos. Marianne is a professional and it's evident in the way she handled our little girl.
I have photographed well over 300 weddings & over 3,000 babies! I have worked side by side with doctors, nurses and lactation consultants for the last 4 years inside and outside of my local hospitals. I am continuously taking newborn safety training to care for your little ones while they are in my hands.
I have photographed well over 300 weddings with some of the very best in the industry. I have trained with and worked with countless photographers from around the world. I am continually looking to learn more and grow as an artist. I value you as a client and strive to deliver the very best images I can because you deserve it.
I have been photographing women's bodies of all sizes for over 12 years and specifically working with expectant moms for over 4 years now. I know the female form and how to pose it to look the most flattering. You will leave a session with me empowered and feeling as good as you look. Clients love that I have a private studio on the first floor of my home.

We booked Marianne for our newborn shoot for our new baby boy! She was so responsive when booking, and listened to the vision we had. She had such patience and took her time with our family to get the most beautiful pictures that we will cherish forever. She truly is so talented and easy to work with!

We hired Marianne for newborn photos, and again for milestone photos. Our experience with her was fantastic both times. She has immeasurable patience and doesn't rush the photoshoot at all. She takes her time, and is so creative with her pictures. I appreciate her ability to balance elegance and playfulness with her work. Her calm personality makes her perfect for photoshoots with kids. She very quickly delivered proofs, and worked with us on edits to deliver stunning final pictures.

A friend recommended Marianne for newborn photos of my twins. I was pleased with her prompt communication and professionalism. Luckily, she had availability for a session on a day that suited my family’s needs, and we booked the appointment. Marianne took my wife’s taste and preferences into consideration while preparing for the shoot, and the photos she created are beautiful. The session and digital images created are worth the investment. Thank you for capturing our family so perfectly! We look forward to seeing Marianne again as our boys grow.

Marianne took newborn photos of our daughter during our hospital stay in 2019. She did such an amazing job that I knew we had to hire her for newborn pictures of our son. Despite our children being less than cooperative, Marianne was able to capture beautiful photos that we will cherish forever. Highly recommend!

Marianne was incredible to work with for our newborn photos. Marianne is a professional and it’s evident in the way she handled our little girl. The entire experience was enjoyable and peaceful (and that’s impressive when working with a newborn). She was also patient with me as a first time mom and I felt absolutely comfortable handing over my little girl to her. The pictures came out even better than we expected! She took her time, made sure to get all the shots we wanted and honed in on the style we were looking for. I know these pictures will be memorable forever and we’re so pleased with
