NJ Beach & Chid Photographer Christine DeSavino Offers a $200 Credit for her Summer Sessions

Like so many other people who love the Jersey shore, NJ Beach Photographer Christine DeSavino was heart-broken with the destruction that Hurricane Sandy left in it's wake last fall. But she also knows that the beach community will rebuild and she wants to help do her part. So to encourage vacationers to return to the shore, she will be offering a $200 print credit on her photography products for anyone who books a beach session by May 1st to be shot this summer.

For Christine, the beaches of Long Beach Island have always been a magical place. As a girl Christine spent her summers on LBI and experienced many magical moments on its beautiful beaches with her brothers and parents. Now as an adult she returns every summer to give her own children the same wonderful experience.

When Christine became a child photographer nearly 8 years ago, photographing children on the beaches of LBI became a natural extension of her Bergen county based family portraiture business. Over these summers Christine worked hard to build a loyal client base of families who summer on the Shore, and who return year after year to vacation. Christine highly values the relationships that she has built and the summer memories that she has been priviledged to preserve for so many families, including her own...

"As a child photographer , I cherish being able to capture these priceless memories of my own children at this special place," says Christine, "and I so look forward to also providing my clients with this same opportunity. But I know that a family portrait session is a luxury to many of us, especially during times like this. That's why I want to make it more possible for us all to enjoy the beach, and to create and preserve more magical memories like we have in the past. And if I can help the Jersey shore rebuild, better yet!"

Christine's Approach to Photographing Children in her Own Words:

"As a mother of two, it is my joy and my passion to photograph children. I love their natural curiosity, their innocence and spontaneity. Capturing these wonderful qualities in photographs is what makes my job so rewarding. My desire as a child portrait photographer is to capture the essence of your child. Whether it's a silly giggle or a thoughtful stare, I want to catch them being themselves. Time passes so quickly and before we know it our babies have grown on to the next stage. I want to give you a lasting memory of your child, by catching true moments in time. My approach is fun and relaxed, so my camera can capture your child being just who they are."

About Christine:

Christine's passion for photography began while she was traveling Europe. Visually, she was awe-struck and wanted to be sure to remember it all, but from her own point of view. As a result, she spent three wonderful years in Barcelona studying photography.

She met her husband years later in New York, where they were both working in the film industry. After having kids, Christine couldn't be away from them for a typical 12 hour film day. She wanted to raise her children yet continue her career. Children's portrait photography was a natural progression.

"I had no idea how much love I had inside of me, until I had my children," says Christine. "It's what I try to capture in my portraits - a love and reverence for this special stage of life called childhood. Starting a family is such an incredible time of life and I am thrilled every time I have the privilege of documenting it for someone - from the joy of holding your newborn, to the endearing preschool ages, to the we-can-rule-the-world attitude of pre-teens. It's all so amazing and passes by in a blink. I think it's important to have it documented so you can look back and never forget."
