Family Love in a Brooklyn Community Garden - Brooklyn Family Photographer

The best photography locations come in small and large sizes.  This sweet family session took place in a Brooklyn neighborhood community garden in the Columbia Street Waterfront neighborhood.  The garden flowers and this family's love were beautifully blossoming....perfect for a Spring Family Photo Session.

Where Diversity Drives Success - NYC photographer

Central Queens Academy is a remarkable school that celebrates their diverse and varied scholars, staff and families who live near Elmhurst, Queens, the nation’s most diverse zip code.  CQA fosters connections for their young people to feel empowered to make positive changes in their community while also helping each other learn and succeed in school.  Last week, I was honored to photograph their largest annual fundraising event so that this amazing school can continue to change the lives of 400 hardworking and committed young scholars. 

Mother's Day is fast approaching - NYC family photographer

Looking for a meaningful mother's day gift?

Moms are frequently left out of their own family history because they are typically the default family photographer. Moms should and need to be in family photographs with their kids because these are the same images that children will look back at in the future, and I want them to remember that Mom was there with them... sharing in all those precious childhood moments.

Reach out to me (erin@erinsilber.com) if you would like to purchase a thoughtful gift certificate!

 

$20K IN 20 DAYS for The Trevor Project - NYC photographer

This past Saturday night, a fundraiser was held that raised over $45,000 for The Trevor Project - the leading national organization providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to LGBTQ + youth. An amazing group of proactive Brooklyn women organized this fundraiser as one of many efforts that have been a direct response to the November election.  We learned that since the election, there has been a significant increase in suicide thoughts and attempts with LGBTQ teens. The Trevor Project fiercely helps protect and save lives. Thank you all who came and donated in person and from afar. It was an honor to photograph this fantastic #drinkdancedogood event for The Trevor Project!
