I love photographing a fun bat mitzvah! And this one was epic. I always like to, first, photograph a private session of the with the 13 year old away from all the craziness of the special day. This sweet session allows us to get to know each other and it allows me to capture special portraits that the family can use in a curated slideshow and for the parents to remember this memorable age. Then comes the service - a milestone endeavor to achieve. Next comes the celebration…a time to party with loved ones - family and friends. It’s an emotional ride and I’m there for it all. And with this family….its always super lively, fun-filled and full of love.
Sometimes your home can be the best location for a family photo session. Especially if its your kids’ first. During my time with this sweet family of 5, we captured this family’s deep bond as well as capturing the personalities of each child. I adore these visual memories of FAMILY LOVE. There is nothing better.
I adore the toddler stage. Kids, at this age, are so curious…exploring everything around them. They are also so expressive…quick to smile, laugh and cry. Everything is new to them as they take the world in. I am so lucky and honored to photograph these early sweet moments in their lives and all those that love them.
I love this out-of-town family who came to the Big City and wanted to schedule a memorable portrait session during their recent NYC visit. With older kids in their 20s, it is still a perfect time for a family session. Not only did they have a great time with me during the shoot…but now they will forever have a visual record of their fun visit to the Big Apple. When traveling - book a portrait session for yourself! Its always worth it!
I adore photographing this mom and son (and grandparents of course)! It’s now their annual tradition when I come visit my hometown each Fall. These special family portraits capture all the LOVE + JOY they have for one another. They win me over with their big smiles and laughter. Can’t wait until Fall 2024!
As I just dropped off my first born to college for the very first time last week, it is so sweet to photograph a couple who is starting out on their own journey as new parents. Our kids grow up so fast but this family will forever have these visual memories to remember all their first moments with their baby boy.
Moms are our tireless and selfless champions. They are the emotional backbones of our families and communities. Their love is unconditional. They are our 1st teachers…they give us guidance, hope and a sense of safety. A mother’s place is irreplaceable in every stage of our lives.
Mothers deserve to be celebrated. Frame-worthy family portraits is the perfect way to honor our mothers…a gift the gives back.
Sometimes its nice to take family portraits right in your own “backyard”. That’s what this family did when they suggested Brooklyn Heights as their special location. We photographed on their quaint brownstone-filled street and walked a block away to capture the beauty of the Brooklyn Heights Promenade. Brooklyn is the BEST!
I love photographing the same families year after year. It’s like we grow up together….my business matures and so do my clients’ kids. And when they move from Manhattan or Brooklyn to the suburbs - I hope that our relationship continues on. Luckily that is what happened with this awesome family. I have photographed them for almost 10 years. So when they moved from Brooklyn to a charming NJ suburb - they did not hesitate to call me for their next family portrait session. And I did not hesitate to make a visit to their new home. These are my people and I am forever grateful!
I always love photographing in my hometown of DC. And to photograph in the famous Bishop’s Garden at the National Cathedral - it is always memorable. And with this fantastic family, the experience was a total home run! Sweetness, sister love, fun and memories made. You can’t ask for anything better!
I love when I have quick and authentic connections with my clients. That’s what happened when I met this adorable boy upon first meeting. This was his first ever professional photo session - and he did FANTASTIC! He loved all the attention from me and all the love, cuddles and tickles he received from his parents throughout our time together. And, as an end result, his parents have fantastic portraits to cherish for a lifetime.
