When a family decides to move from their beloved Brooklyn home to another city, its so special when they decide to say good-bye by having a farewell family photography session. That’s what this gorgeous family did recently right before they headed west. When you leave…you realize that NYC never leaves you. Its a city that touches your heart deeply. Once a New Yorker always a New Yorker.
When this family decided to relocate back to Europe, they wanted to commemorate their special time in Brooklyn with a memorable family photo session. These portraits capture the neighborhood they grew to love, the memories they created and the unique time in their lives. What a wonderful visual memory to have forever and look at fondly.
I’ve known this woman, a fellow photographer, for years. She’s been photographing portraits professional but, like all busy professionals, she has rarely gotten her own family (with herself included) captured. Now, a mother of 3, she got emotional when she saw her newest family portraits for the first time. Through seeing these portraits, it really hit her that she was a mom (for real!)…and these precious 3 kids’ mom. Now, she can proudly display her family portraits around her home that showcase their entire happy family. For this, she is forever grateful.
When you are a single parent, you are rarely photographed with your children. You are absent from your family and children’s own visual history. That’s why it is so important to hire a professional photographer. I, too, have an annual photo session with my children. It is such a gift to have beautiful portraits of my children and I. I cherish all my family portraits and so will you.
Dumbo is filled with cobblestone streets and converted Brooklyn warehouse buildings. It is the backdrop for independent boutiques, high-end restaurants and trendy cafes as well as being the heart of a thriving performance and gallery scene. The north end of Brooklyn Bridge Park features historic Jane’s Carousel as well as picturesque views of the Manhattan skyline. Amongst all of that….there are families who are raising children here in a very unique way. Like this wonderful family who walks past these great NYC vistas every day on the way to their local playground. They work, they play but they always call Dumbo home. What a way to live!
Even fathers & sons need a photo session.
Happy birthday to this dad who wanted to spend his birthday celebrating with his son in front of my camera so that they will have these fun memories to cherish for years to come.
And look what "air" they got!!! You should see the outtakes! What a fun session to photograph and edit!
