An Ocean City, NJ Beach Photography Session | Heather Thomas Photography

Mom had anticipated this OCNJ beach session for a few summers.  She reached out for the session right away in January when I announced that I was booking the beach sessions. With the three kids and grandparents, I knew we would have a blast capturing them summer 2019 in Ocean City, NJ.

Ocean City, NJ Beaches

The Ocean City, NJ beaches have a lot to offer for family beach portraits. When I’m scoping out beaches to use I always seek out a great beach entry or walk way with lots of textures including lush greens and run down wooden fencing. This area works great for the beginning of my beach photo shoot when the kids are still a bit reserved and willing to stick with mom and dad. This works great for all families!

Next, I try my best to find a boat or lifeguard stand. Who doesn’t love climbing up on the stand? These are so helpful when working with young children on the beach. Many love to run to the stand or life saving boat for a photo opportunity. The teal and white colors complement the beach clothing choices well. Of course, using a beach that’s not heavily used by tourists is important. The quieter beaches help with keeping bystanders out of the background.
