What started as a fun extra service when I was down the shore with my family has now turned into one of Desiree Hoelzle Photography’s most popular services! From May- October, I offer couples, maternity, immediate and extended family sessions down the shore at various Jersey Shore points.

With all that the last few years have brought us, one of the most important things that many families have realized is that time with our loved ones isn’t infinite. Having family photos taken at our “happy place” down the shore is one of the most fun things you can do as a family, with lasting memories (I promise—- they’re fun!) and photos that last forever.

Photos with Desiree Hoelzle Photography are scheduled in the hour before sunset for that magical golden sun and soft skies. Sessions can be held at your favorite beach point or we can discuss locations for photos (I know all the best spots at each beach town!) Every session has a primary date and a rain date back up held so that we can be sure to get your shoot in while you’re on vacation.

I only take one one-two nights of beach sessions each week and these are super popular to be sure to schedule early! Bookings open March 2nd for the 2022 season.

Full sessions are $850 + tax for groups up to 6, $15 per person added beyond 6. There is a travel (time, gas, tolls, parking) fee ranging from $75 to $200 depending beach town location.

Each full session comes with a fully edited gallery of 50+ images via digital download. Albums, prints, other wall art can be purchased a la carte.

To book a full session down the shore, please contact Desiree here with all the details of your date ranges, group size, and location.
