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

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…

What do you do when you have a beach session scheduled and it’s really windy out? You start inside and gradually work your way to the beach…
I’ve often wondered what it would be like to have a sister, especially when I see girls as close as these two. And their parents were warm and welcoming from start to finish – you can just see it in these images.
We eventually made it to the beach for some candids by the surf…wonderful summer memories for sure!

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!

Fun with Four… | NJ Children’s Photographer | Bergen County New Jersey

I love that I get to encourage laughing on the job! It doesn’t always work, but it certainly did for this session. These four kids were awesome…they were engaging, interesting, and just delightful. They laughed easily, especially the girls, which not only makes my job easier but more fun. And I’m all about fun on the job. These portraits are a surprise Father’s Day gift from their mom to their dad and I just love that idea.
It’s always fun for me to try to capture each child’s unique beauty and I think you can see the different personalities shining through in these images…

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

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…
All the Rave…Olea Clothing Store | Montclair New Jersey
comment here
Last week, I attended a party for a fantastic new clothing store and I have to rave about it – it’s called Olea and it just opened in Montclair, NJ. Olea is a contemporary clothing store for both women and children. The clothes are fun, flattering and fabulous and include dresses, jeans, tops, handbags, scarves, jewelry and more. Owners Lori and Jae Bae have managed to keep prices reasonable while maintaining quality. In their own words, “Affordability, accessibility and quality embody Olea brand products.” And they deliver on that promise.
The store’s interior is beautifully designed with a modern, streamlined look that makes shopping easy and inviting. Have the kids in tow? No problem. Not only do they sell great clothing for babies and kids, but they have a play area to occupy them while you browse. The Baes are also very involved in giving back to the community and they have some generous plans on the horizon. It’s always so inspiring to see that. I’ll be sure to keep you all posted on what they’re up to…not only because Lori and Jae are friends, but because I think their store and it’s products are worth raving about!
Next time you’re in the Montclair area, I highly recommend you stop by Olea. Better yet, make a special trip – it’s worth it!
