As a Maplewood NJ family photographer I love going to the Memorial Park. This location offers a lot in terms of variety. I love using the multiple bridges, along with the pond. Also, since I’m a Maplewood NJ family photographer I have some hidden spots as well since I’m familiar with the area!

During family sessions, I always make sure to capture your family as a whole plus giving mom and dad each time with the kids alone. I love those special moments. A lot of the time we are walking around capturing small moments between you as a family. My sessions are never rushed and allow kids to be themselves. I don’t like to put pressure on them to always be smiling at the camera. Hugging you or snuggling you, those are the best moments. 

The park is frequented by families out on walks with their kids often heading into downtown Maplewood for some shopping. The weather was perfect for this session and sun was shining.
