Jessica Michelle PhotoSarah’s Fresh 48 session – Manhasset, New York Long Island
Posted on June 5, 2019
I was so joyed to get to capture Sarah and her wonderful family last month. When siblings are a part of these fresh 48 sessions it’s always a good fun time. Big brother couldn’t contain his excitement most of the session. He just kept coming up and gazing at her, probably wondering when she was going to get up and play with him.
I don’t think I’ve met a bald baby in the past year yet – everyone just has all the luscious locks!
Check out Sarah’s adorable fresh 48 session below.

Jessica’s garden maternity session – Calverton, NY
Posted on May 29, 2019
I cannot get enough of this session from last week with Jessica. From the location to the dress it was all amazing. We had a blast shooting at Peconic River herb farm in Calverton, which is quickly becoming a favorite spot. It has everything, gardens, greenhouses open-space and a river! What more could I ask for?!
The dress we used for her session was the new dress from sew trendy’s so you subscription box. It was PERFECT for this location and Jessica worked her pregnancy glow like the babe she is! We both agree that the bamboo bush was the best spot and really made everything pop.
Take a look at her gorgeous session below

Victoria’s Fresh 48 Session – Port Jefferson, NY
Posted on May 22, 2019
I got to meet sweet Victoria last week at less than 24 hours old for her fresh 48 session. I was really excited to shoot this session because it was at a new hospital that I had not been to before. Saint Charles is absolutely beautiful and the closest hospital to me than any of the other ones I’ve shot before less then two miles from my house. When I arrived she was sleeping peacefully in her daddy’s arms and everyone was glowing with joy having finally got to meet her. She was absolutely adorable And had so much hair that was so luscious and had the most adorable cowlick to boot. This sweet girl barely made a peep the whole time I was there. I absolutely adored getting to meet her and her wonderful family everyone is over the moon about her arrival.
Enjoy my favorite shots from her session!

Michaela’s seaside maternity session – Port Jefferson, NY
Posted on May 8, 2019
It was the perfect evening when we did Michaela’s maternity session seaside in Port Jefferson. We chose to shoot at the small but perfect Harborfront Beach near the village center in town. This spot almost always yields the best sunsets and colors over the harbor and sound. She was such a natural in front of the camera and really glowed even more with the golden sunlight embracing her.
Take a look at her gorgeous session below!

Candice’s Beachside Maternity Session – Port Jefferson, NY
Posted on September 19, 2018
When planning Candice’s maternity session I just knew shooting her in this dress by the beachside would be perfect, and it was! This dress perfectly showcased her growing bump and all her beautiful tattoos. It also was the perfect color on her with the glowing golden light we had that evening. Her and her guy were so happy and excited for their first little baby boy together and it truly showed in their images of them. Their sweet little Spencer will also get to share a birthday with my Emily which is a fun tidbit we chatted about during the session.
enjoy!

Elizabeth’s Garden Maternity Session – Port Jefferson, NY
Posted on August 20, 2018
All sessions are special to me but some are just extra special, this one is one of those sessions. Why? Well because this one was for my sister in law who is expecting her second little baby in just a few short weeks. A little girl! We are all so excited to welcome another precious baby into the family and have more cousins for my crazy kids. Emily is especially excited because as of now she’s the only girl.
We decided to use her property again like we had with her first, though raining we really got some beautiful shots. She really makes being pregnant look like a breeze most of the time. I wanted to really make this new dress pop so I decided to really just play with the greens of the garden.
I really cannot wait to meet this sweet girl soon, stay tuned for her Fresh 48!

– Stephanie’s Secret Garden Maternity Session – Port Jefferson, NY – Jessica Michelle Photo
Posted on July 25, 2018
I have had this vision for sometime now. I wanted to do it with myself while I was still pregnant with Easton, but he decided to show up early so I wasn’t able to do it. So when I found out Stephanie was also going team green I thought it would be really cool to shoot her second pregnancy and use the smoke bombs for her. Since my in laws garden was in full bloom for summer I thought it would be beautiful to shoot the session there. Seeing how it turned out to be a secret garden magical shoot. I’m so ecstatic with the end result. The light was perfectly golden and the smoke really came out how I envisioned.
After we were done playing in the garden we decided to change dresses and head down to Harborfront Park in Port Jefferson and do a few shots there too and cool off in the water since it was about 100 degrees that day.

– The Traveling Dress – A Special Project with Beauty & Lifestyle Mommy Magazine – Jessica Michelle Photo
Posted on June 5, 2018
The Traveling Dress Collaboration is a brilliant creative project brought together by several photographers within the Motherhood Society (Beauty & Lifestyle Mommy Magazine’s endorsed professional motherhood photography communication). As elite creatives, each photographer was impressed with one another’s different photography and editing style and they decided to celebrate different women, all from different ethnicity, different stages in their pregnancies and in different settings, using the exact same dress to make their unique visions come to life. Each photographer had one single week with the dress, a custom design from Sew Trendy Accessories; styling the dress with their own creative vision and shooting it with their own style, before mailing it off to the next person. To avoid creatively influencing the vision of one another, the participating photographers agreed to refrain from sharing the images until each of them had the opportunity to shoot with the dress and submit their images for publish in the magazine. The dress traveled around the United States between eight participants, each very different in shooting style and artistic voice, we are so excited to share this collaboration with you!
I had the pleasure of working with Dana who was about 22 weeks during the time of our shoot last August. I wanted to do something fun and different that I had before. Dana is an art teacher here on Long Island, so I wanted to incorporate that in some way. I originally wanted to shoot at the MET in NYC but they don’t allow editorial shoots. So I went in a different direction and played off the teacher part and what is so commonly associated with teachers? Apples! I reached out to my favorite orchard on the East End and set up shooting before harvesting began. Harbes Orchard was in its prime and the trees were full of apples that hadn’t been touched yet! Dana was stunning in the dress and the light was so dreamy. After we did some in the traveling dress I had her switch up her dress and do some in another dress I had.
Check out Dana below as well as my favorite from each of the other photographers who participated in The Traveling Dress project.

– Josie’s Family Maternity Session – Port Jefferson, NY – Jessica Michelle Photo
Posted on May 7, 2018
Just a little behind here on getting Josie’s session up on the blog. We shot her session just a week before my own little guy decided to surprise us with an early arrival. Thankfully the weather has warmed up since her snowy session. Josie was joined by her husband and sweet little boy during her session too. He was pretty shy and really wanted nothing to do with being in front of the camera, but I was able to snap a few with all of them together and some on his own. We chatted about how he loved PJ Mask and who his favorite character was. Then Josie and I went and did some images of just her! She was absolutely gorgeous in the sheer Sew Trendy Dress we got just for her session. With the golden sun behind her and the royal blue dress she just shined the whole time.
Enjoy!

– Family maternity session – Port Jefferson, NY – Jessica Michelle Photo
Posted on January 29, 2018
Last week I hit 33 weeks in pregnancy and boy am I getting big! With all the cold weather and wind we couldn’t make the previous week work for portraits with the kids. So when we finally had a a good slightly warmer sunny day we made a family maternity session with the kids happen. Of course we ventured over to my favorite field of golden grass to capture the shots. The white dress really popped against the golden tones. This week I had help from the whole crew to get some really great shots, mostly my husband, but the kids each had a turn taking some too. They really enjoy getting to take shots with the “big camera”.
Emily is beyond excited to welcome a new baby and thanks me almost every day that I’m pregnant. Edward on the other hand doesn’t fully grasp the idea that there will be a new baby joining us, only that he wants it to be a little brother when we ask if he thinks it’s a boy or girl. He though has been very very sunggly and attached to me like no other, which is very similar to how Emily was when Edward was set to arrive. We are “Team Green” this time so the guesses are coming in from every one that ask – what’s your guess?!
