Maegan Dougherty Photography » NJ Birth and Family Photographer

I think extended family sessions are so special. It’s rare for a family to have all of its members from four generations in one place. I was honored to be the person to photograph this lovely couple, their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren when they met in New Jersey for a celebration.

I loved watching the little ones with their grandparents, sisters laughing together, and everyone talking and enjoying each other’s company. It was a beautiful morning.

If you’re getting your whole family together, don’t miss the opportunity to document the occasion and capture treasured memories of everyone together. I’d love to be a part of it!

Here are a bunch of pictures from little Tommy’s big day!  It was a really special event and a great party!

WOW! They shot of the actual Christening is AMAZING! I’ve never seen anything like it! I’m jealous of that family! Stellar work.

Hope to win a mini session!!

How much do u charge for christensing. It’s on June 22 for my daughter at greek church in Tenafly nj at 330. And reception at waterside in north bergen at 530. Need u till about 9ish

Loved this family’s really cool neighborhood, Annabelle’s curls, her outfits and sandals, her sweet smiles and the cute things she did, watching the way a young family loves each other, and that they were referred to me by one of my first clients!

I’m late blogging this, so they are already getting extra goodies with their order, but I’m sure they would love some comments anyway!

What a sweet little girl – you just want to give her a big hug! Wonderful pics, Maegan.

I LOVE this pics…thanks again for capturing such a great moment. You are Great!!!!…I think I take a look at the pics like everyday lol 🙂

This new mom and dad are friends with the director of Xander’s daycare. We love his daycare and the director is wonderful, and I totally hit it off with her friends and could have talked to them all day about books and breastfeeding and birth and other baby and non-baby stuff.

Here are some of the pictures from my time with them and their baby Dexter…such a great name!


I’m doing a shoot this morning for the next Under The Nile catalog.  I’ve been a little bit (extremely) last minute about it, and I’m still looking for some models (about 4-8 months) for tomorrow.  Let me know if you’re interested!

Beautiful pictures!!!

The other day Xander tried some Trader Joe’s Pomegranate Blueberry Sherbert and he looked so cute eating it.   🙂





Glad he left some for me. It’s yummy!
