Spirited! | Newborn Photographer | Bergen County, New Jersey

3 comments

This little girl was, in her dad’s words… “spirited.”  She woke up in between almost every pose and gave a good little cry.   Luckily, her dad was so fantastic at soothing her back into a slumber, that we named him “the baby whisperer.”   Mom and Dad actually came all the way down from West Point for their session …with a cadet uniform in tow! (It made for a great prop!)  It was really fun collaborating with this sweet little girl’s mom on the look of the session and the various props.  They also brought pink roses and hydrangeas for the session…I love it!  And, as you can see in the last shot, big brother was also on hand for a handsome portrait with his baby sister.  A beautiful family indeed and a fun session…

Comfy and Cozy… | NJ Newborn Photographer | Bergen County New Jersey

5 comments

In my continued effort to catch up on my blogging, I’d like to share this little beauty from the summer.  This little guy was only a week old and he stayed very comfy and cozy for almost the whole shoot.  Mom also had the cutest selection of props and accessories…like this owl hat.  Say it with me….”aaaaaaw!”

Summer in the city… | NYC Child Photographer | New York, NY

3 comments

I loved this session…even though this little 7 month old guy had some teeth coming in that were causing him some pain…which is why I love this first image.  Everything goes right for the mouth…even a foot!  We gave him a rest, a snack and a change of clothes and he was back in business! Battery Park City was our backdrop for this lovely NYC family’s session.  It was a hot summer night, but the sunset was beautiful as was the company…

In the Summertime… | NJ Beach Photographer | Long Beach Island, New Jersey

3 comments

Well, with Hurricane Irene upon us, I thought we could use some sunny beach pictures to brighten things up…  These boys got so big since the last time I saw them for a newborn & big brother session.  Look at them now – all kinds of adorable.  And what a change in just eight months!

Beach sessions for children are some of my favorites.  Mom and Dad dressed them in great beachwear and brought colorful, wooden beach chairs which made for awesome props.  At the end of the session, we were joined by the whole family… for a beautiful finale!

Daydream…. | NJ Newborn Photographer | Bergen County New Jersey

3 comments

This little girl decided to arrive early.  So small and delicate, she was a dream to photograph.  She slept for the whole session and barely fussed one bit.  Just when we started the bowl shot, she started waking up – hungry!  So I had to work fast…but she stayed still just long enough…

Brand New… | NJ Newborn Photographer | Morris County New Jersey

7 comments

Six days young, this brand new little one was tiny and precious.  I kept marveling at his perfect features…they truly were.  He seemed a good sleeper too, so I thought I’d use the latest in my never-ending search for cool newborn props…a beautifully crafted wooden chair.  I love it – and I think he looks downright comfy in it too.  Look at his little smile.  He stayed peaceful and sleepy for the whole session…looking angelic in the different wraps and cocoons, but I just love how he looks in his daddy’s arms in the black and whites below.  And I daresay the last shot would bring a smile to almost anyone’s face.  Take a look and see…
