This is not a magazine subscription.
It’s a quarterly, physical piece of art—created to capture the beauty, culture, and quiet moments of Highlands, Sandy Hook, and the Northern Jersey Shore region. Each release is different by design. Sometimes it’s a photo-forward magazine. Sometimes a newspaper-style print. Sometimes something else entirely.
What stays the same is the intention:
to create something worth keeping.
Printed on quality stock, built for coffee tables, shelves, and collections—each edition documents a season in this place through photography, stories, and objects shaped by the coast.
Every quarter, subscribers receive a curated Above the Hook Print Edition—and occasionally, something extra.
What You’ll Receive (Each Quarter)
Every shipment includes:
One limited-run print piece
Could be a magazine, newspaper, or photo book
Always designed as a standalone collectible
Seasonal photography
Highlands, Sandy Hook, the bay, the ocean, and the people in between
Editorial features
Short stories, essays, and visual narratives rooted in place
Community & culture
Local businesses, makers, and moments that don’t make it online
Some editions may also include surprise additions, such as:
A limited Above the Hook item (hat, print, small object)
A special insert or collaboration piece
A one-time-only artifact tied to that season
You won’t know exactly what’s coming—and that’s intentional.
Most content is designed to be scrolled past.
This is designed to be held.
Above the Hook Print Editions are created slowly, released quarterly, and meant to last beyond the season they document. They’re not trend-driven. They don’t rush to explain themselves. They’re physical records of a place that changes with weather, light, and time.
If you care about:
coastal culture
thoughtful design
photography
places with real identity
this is for you.
How often is this released?
Quarterly—one edition per season.
Is it always the same format?
No. That’s the point. Each release may take a different physical form depending on the season and story being told.
Are these limited?
Yes. Each edition is produced in a finite run. Subscribers are guaranteed a copy.
Is this a magazine?
Sometimes. Other times it’s a newspaper, photo book, or hybrid format. Think of it as a recurring physical art release.
Do you ship outside the area?
Yes. This is rooted in Highlands & Sandy Hook, but shipped wherever you are.
Can I give this as a gift?
Absolutely. It’s designed to be gift-worthy.
This is for people who still believe physical things matter.
