La Lumiere Photography – North Jersey Photographer

My poor, poor blog has been terribly neglected for a terribly long time.   It was a whirlwind for me last year, including a nearly 11 month deployment for my husband and a cancer diagnosis for me.  Keeping up with clients had to come first, so blogging fell a bit by the wayside!   I’ll go into more of that later, but in the mean time here is the long overdue update for the beautiful pregnant mama below.

 

Little Laurali’s daddy deployed not even two short weeks after her birth and returned 10+ months later to a much bigger little girl!  I’m told she adores her daddy and is thoroughly enjoying having him home!

A while back I received a request to do some commercial photography for an upcoming article in Military Spouse Magazine, or MilSpouse, as it’s commonly known.

I was so glad I was able to squeeze the session in and got to meet this wonderful mama-to-be. She’s as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside!

This was the main feature, but you may have also seen the photo below in future promotions and issues.

Any military spouse will recognize the care package, customs forms, and the ever-present cell phone that goes along with deployments!
I also loved all of the photos on the refrigerator in the background, they really tell the story of their lives and loved ones.

Of course, I am a child and family photographer at heart, and I just could NOT resist her charismatic three year old daughter.

You can check in with Brittany as she navigates being a military spouse and mother to two young children during a deployment here!

A client recently asked for some album options, so I thought I’d post them here too!

First up is my favorite, our beautiful Deluxe Album.

The Deluxe is a press printed keepsake album featuring either watercolor or pearl finish on seamless, lay flat pages.
The pages are nice and thick and it makes an impressive album!

This is a 5×7 size album with an extra thick cover option.

This album is available in a variety of sizes, orientations, and cover options.
The cover options range from fabric to leather to a custom photo cover like you see above.
Isn’t it beautiful?

Next up is our Coffee Table Book

This is an 8×8 size featuring a linen fabric cover.

The pages lay flat, though there is a seam in the center so I would suggest individual rather than full spreads if an important feature will fall in the center.

There are a multitude of cover options for this book as well, including a custom photo cover.
I am not a product photographer, the photos really don’t do it justice!

Lastly for today we have our Matted Album.

This is a leather album available in black or brown.

This brown leather version is a 5×7 size.  A 4×6 size is also available, with up to 40 prints displayed.

The photos are presented in a classic black mat format, essentially framing them so that they stand out on the page.

The mats have a slight sheen to them, giving a timeless, luxury appearance.

The binding is high quality and the individual pages are nice and thick.
The matted album is our most economically priced album, yet still offers a timeless, quality presentation for your images.
