June Maternity Session

Today I had the privilege of meeting the nicest couple who is expecting their first baby girl in just a few more weeks.  I will be lucky enough to meet their little bundle of joy since they have already booked me for a newborn session - how exciting!  
I really love maternity photo shoots - the women I meet are just so beautiful and the pictures are so filled with emotion.  I also LOVE the excitement of first time moms. . .I feel like I was there not too long ago (hard to believe that in only a couple months I'll have # 2 - yikes!).  
This soon to be mommy had the most beautiful complexion and skin - her belly was even tan!  How jealous was I???  She just looked beautiful in all the poses. 
We did a lot of indoor intimate pictures and then headed to a nearby park for a few final outdoor pics.  We definitely got a lot of pictures in a short amount of time. . . AND we beat a major rainstorm by about 30 seconds or so!   Perfect timing!
Thanks guys for a great session.  Enjoy your sneak peek!  Can't wait to meet little "V" in a few weeks!

Our Buddy C

We spent this beautiful weekend at my family's cabin with some good friends.  Of course I took my camera out and snapped a few photos of the boys playing.  Thought I'd share one of my favorites.  This is our friends son. . . getting wet by the hose spray from the Dad's cleaning off a very muddy 4 wheeler.

The C Family


What a beautiful day for some family portraits.  I met up with the C family at the Wyckoff Wildlife Center.  This is just a small little park - but there are just so many great spots to take fun candid photographs.  I had a great time photographing this beautiful family.  The kids were great sports and willingly participated in "ultimate photography" (definition - Action shots of the kids jumping off picnic tables, doing cartwheels and climbing trees).  

This session just flew by.  We got in sooooooo many poses in such a short period of time.  As I glance through the photos I will tell you that some of my favorites are the unplanned impromptu shots.  There are a bunch I really love.  

Here is a sneak peek from the session with the gorgeous C Family.  Thanks to all for such great day!   Enjoy!

Mom and Daughter. . . This is one of those impromptu shots I love.  . .

This looks like a Gap blue jeans ad to me.  . .

This picture reminds me of an ad for a new TLC show. . . Goodbye Jon and Kate. . .Hello C family!
Just a Black and White of the youngest hanging out in a tree.  Isn't he adorable?

M's Christening Day



Today was a special day for little M.  It was his Christening Day.  I was lucky enough to be invited by Mom and Dad to take some pictures of the ceremony and reception.  I have photographed little M and his older sister a few times before and I always look forward to it.  They are just the two cutest little darlings.

The ceremony was quite quick. . . held in a beautiful church in Hawthorne.  The stained glass in this church was truly jaw dropping and the alter was immense.  I must also say, I was very impressed by the Priest they chose.  He was extremely friendly and personable.  

A nice size group of family and friends witnessed the ceremony and the entire group celebrated the day at a dinner reception in Hackensack.  Mom (who looked stunning by the way) - was quite prepared with seating cards, awesome favors and a unique sign in book where each guests' photograph will be inserted next to their note.  I am pretty sure we got everybody's photo taken so that book can be completed.    

Thanks H family for inviting me to capture your sons special day.  Here's your sneak peek!  Enjoy!

Little M was in good spirits. . . I think he enjoyed the ceremony.

I love this picture of Grandma grabbing little M's feet.  Doesn't every Grandma do this?  We should all have this photograph.





Little M sitting on the floor of the alter. . . We had to snap the picture quickly. .He was on the move. . .

Big sister at the dinner reception. . .  She borrowed some jewlery from one of the guests

The favors. .  What a cute idea. .   I took that picture on the lollipop!
(p.s.  if this picture looks funky it's because I quickly deleted the names - for blog privacy)

Please Excuse Me. . .


. . . I am under construction. If my blog and website seem confusing it's because I am updating the design, replacing my logo (I hope you all love it as much as I do) and adding some new and more recent samples of my work. I am also attempting to be a bit "green" and am adding session information, details and my "What to Wear" guide to my blog. Your comments and feedback are always appreciated! As always, Thank you for your business!
