Because Memories Matter

As a mom of three, I get it.

The sleepless nights. The snuggles on the couch. The tears and the giggles. The moments of sheer exhaustion and the moments of pure contentment. The hope and mess and joy and stress and love all mixed up together.

Parenthood is an emotional roller-coaster! And at the back of it all, humming in the background and sometimes catching you by surprise, is the knowledge that it’s changing all the time. All of a sudden, that chubby baby face looks a little less round. That gummy smile becomes a toothy grin. And those tiny toes will be in softball cleats before you know it. Take it from someone who knows…babies don’t stay little forever.

I can’t make your little ones stay tiny. And let’s be honest, part of the joy of raising your kiddos is watching them grow! But part of the joy also comes when we look back, retrace our steps along the journey, and savor how precious life truly is.

The day-to-day of family life has its ups and downs. But Jennifer Parrello Photography is here to help you hang on to the best that life has to offer: The moments, the milestones, and everything in between.

Maternity

Pregnancy can be hard, but this stage of life is also a time of incredible wonder, and it’s one you won’t want to forget! Choose between an outdoor or in-studio maternity session for a look you love.

I have a small collection of pieces suitable for the studio in my client closet, or you are welcome to wear a maternity outfit from home. Your partner and other children are welcome to join as well!

These 1-hour sessions are beautiful and relaxing and focus on capturing that baby bump and pregnancy glow! I believe that every mama should have memories of this time that she can look back on and treasure forever.

Pricing: My maternity collection is $490. Maternity sessions are also available at a discounted cost if purchased with a newborn collection.

Newborn

There is nothing better than holding your sweet little one in your arms for the first time. A posed newborn photoshoot is the perfect way to capture those first days together. With the use of natural posing, beautiful wraps, and beautiful colors, I will capture all the tiny, perfect details of your little one.

Newborn sessions are held in my West Milford, NJ studio and last from 1-3 hours so that our experience together feels calm and unrushed. Each session is meticulously customized to your unique preferences and requests.

I provide all the props, wraps, and accessories, so that you don’t have to worry about a thing. Just bring baby and a stocked diaper bag and prepare to relax and watch those precious memories being recorded.

Pricing: Newborn collections start at $490.

Birthday and Cake Smash

Your baby is turning ONE, and there’s no better way to celebrate than with a cake smash! My cake smash sessions last for approximately 1 hour and include use of an outfit for baby from my client closet, a designed-from-scratch custom set, and tub time at the end.

Because of the time required to create your custom design, I recommend booking your little one’s photoshoot 3-4 months before their first birthday. Also, due to allergy concerns, I request that parents provide the cake. I’m happy to give you bakery recommendations on request!

Other than that, all you have to do is show up and I will take care of the rest! Tell me what you have in mind: Dinosaurs? Balloons? Rock star? Winter ONEderland? I’m so excited to bring your vision to life!

Pricing: Cake Smash collections start at $790.

Children and Family

Nothing matters more than family. Capture big milestone or everyday moments in a way that feels fun and natural. During these 1-hour sessions, I will guide you through posing so that we can create artistic shots that feel comfortable and showcase the connection between you and your loved ones.

I want your child or family photography session to be FUN! My goal is to provide you with a genuinely enjoyable experience from beginning to end, and to preserve these precious memories for you and your family.

Family sessions can take place at my New Jersey studio or outdoors. Because my studio is small and intimate, I recommend outdoor sessions for extended family sessions or for families with more than 4 members.

Pricing: Family collections start at $490 for individual family sessions, $1090 for extended family sessions.

All sessions require a $200 non-refundable retainer which will be applied to the total cost of your session.

Ready to book your session? I can’t wait! To get started, simply fill out my contact form here. Once I hear from you, I’ll be in touch with your contract and the link to pay your retainer so we can officially reserve your spot!
