Embrace your 40s ladies! - NYC Portrait Photographer

I can't get enough of this fabulous session! This is just some of the fantastic highlights but there are so many more portraits that I adore! This session was SO very special to me....particularly because I just turned 43. The 40s is a decade to embrace...its when you are truly learning who you are, its when you have some important life experiences under your belt and its when your life seems pretty full. This absolutely stunning woman exemplifies the beauty of who she is both inside and out. She is an amazing woman, friend, lawyer and wife. She is an especially fantastic role model for her twins - 6 year old son and daughter.

Embrace your 40s ladies! It will be a fabulous decade for all of us! Our natural beauty and character deepen. I'm ready for it with open arms!

Family Love in the Upper West Side - NYC Family Photographer

Its always fun to meet up with a former high school friend and to see him in a new light.  That's what happened when I photographed this husband/father and his family.  To see how his life has shifted was a true joy.  He is thriving as a dad and his kids adore him.  He and his wife are a true team...raising wonderful kids that love one another.  He is lucky for every day that he has.  It was wonderful to witness that.  Thank you.

“Women, if the soul of the nation is to be saved, I believe you must become its soul.” - Coretta Scott King.

As we approach the 1st anniversary of The Women's March, I want to thank these amazing women & moms, as well as all the other women out there, who are raising strong & proud girls who are learning to be both seen and heard. Their voices really do matter. Their future is indeed bright and I can not wait to see how our nation will shift for the better.

Warm, Welcoming & Wonderfully Healing Acupuncturist Refreshes Her Brand - NYC Branding Photographer

Personal branding photography can have a huge impact on your business and your bottom line.  This wonderful Brooklyn acupuncturist took this to heart when she hired me recently.  You can use your branding photographs in several ways:  place them throughout your website, use them in posts on your social media platforms, place them in your newsletters and e-blasts, use them in press releases about an event or new offering you have, refresh your profile pictures every few months so that people see a new image of you, place them in your sales and web-landing pages, submit an image along with your bio when you have a speaking engagement, put one in your email signature and use them in your printed marketing pieces.  Investing in high-quality, authentic photography is required if you want your visuals to play a crucial role in delivering the personality of your brand.

If you are in need of a fantastic healing acupuncturist, reach out to Sarah Rivkin at Park Slope Acupuncture & Chinese Herbs.  If you are in need of new branding photography, please reach out to me at erin@erinsilber.com. 

Branded Portraits are Essential if you want to Elevate your Presence - NYC Professional Headshot Photographer

Its undeniable...2017 was the Year of the Woman!  There was the historic Women's March on Washington (and all the other many cities around the world), the powerful Sally Yates testimony, the #MeToo movement and so much more.  Local Brooklynite Sally Hubbard, an investigative journalist, has been adding her energy to these pro-female efforts for years but has channeled her expertise with her special podcast Women Killing It!  Through interviews and real-life storytelling with the most fascinating women, Sally uncovers how women are killing it in their careers, about what has worked for them, how they got where they are today and what they wish they knew sooner.  

I am pleased to add to Sally's success with my own photography talent.  Recently, she turned to me to refresh her Women Killing It! image.  A personal branding photography session is a very different experience than a traditional headshot session.  It is a modern & authentic way of marketing yourself and your unique services.  I truly think our collaboration was a huge success...we killed it!  I can't wait to see these new branded portraits in 2018 and to see Women Killing It! expand its reach.  Women Killing It! is a mentorship by podcast.  Its a must listen where women are helping women to unleash their superpowers at work!  Please visit Sally's podcast and learn:  http://www.womenkillingit.com/
