This dapper, elegant family was celebrating a very special day…their baby girl’s christening. They had to arrive at the church fairly early in the morning, so our session was first thing and the grass was still dewy! Although it was early and a bit chilly, we managed to make it fun and captured some beautiful […]
I have been so lucky to be the family photographer for this sweet, lovable family for an amazing seven years. Let me say that again; seven years! That’s what made this special, among other things. I met this beautiful young lady when she was just three years old, and it’s become so meaningful to me […]
Little boys. Need I say more? Whether they are being sweet and cuddly, or running around with wild abandon, little boys kinda-always steal my heart during their sessions. They never fail to bring the energy and fun to a shoot, and when there is more than one? Forget about it, and let’s have some fun! […]
Funny story, I took these lovely ladies’ photos last year. But what I didn’t know is that baby boy was already with us! He was snug as a bug in mamma’s belly growing getting ready to be loved like crazy. My goodness, he is adorable. You can tell he is doted on and loved to […]

People often think that family photos are just for young families with little kids. Every once in awhile, however, I get a call from some grown-up kids who want to gift portraits to their parents. I absolutely love when this happens, because it gives me all the warm and fuzzy feelings about being a parent. […]
Listen, sometimes you just need to put on a pink fairy dress and lay in a bed of flowers, ok? A girl after my own heart! She and I are on the same wavelength. It was her birthday, and mom wanted to do something fun to celebrate her as well as document who she is […]
Let me tell you, I looked all over Long Island looking for a free-to-the-public place with those beautiful blooming spring trees. No luck. Everything was behind a paywall. So at the last minute we decided to go for Planting Fields Arboretum. And you know what? It was the right decision. That place is stinking gorgeous […]
