Thanksgiving… | New York Baby Photographer | Rockland County, NY

This family has a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving…the most darling baby girl.  I normally do not do baby sessions at 1 month old.  The babies are past the newborn stage, do not sleep as well and still cannot hold their heads up for very long, so they are kind of at an “in-between” stage.  But when a friend of mine called me to request a session for a very special girl, I was happy to give it my best try.  Boy, am I glad I did!  She is just precious and I had the pleasure of meeting not only her parents, but her grandmother and great grandmother – a lovely family.   And four generations of women…how fantastic!   Here is their new little beauty…

Baby Love… | NJ Newborn Photographer | Bergen County, New Jersey

With all the outdoor fall sessions I’ve been doing, it was a nice change of pace to have a newborn shoot with this beautiful baby girl.  She was just a doll and slept so peacefully the entire time.  You may recognize her big sister in the last photo from a previous session – these parents have two of the prettiest girls around!

Beautiful boy… | Newborn Photographer | Westchester, New York

There’s nothing more beautiful than a newborn being held in his mother’s arms.  Or a sleeping baby…so pure and  peaceful.  Capturing these precious moments is what makes my job meaningful and I feel privileged every time I am given the opportunity…

Congratulations to this family on their beautiful baby boy…

Peaceful… | Newborn Photographer | Bergen County, NJ

This baby boy was such a little beauty.  He was all of a week old when I met him and was so cute he gave me baby fever (one of the hazards of my job!)  Once he fell asleep, he stayed soooo peaceful and content – which makes the baby fever even worse!!   I mean, just look at this sweet little face…  Here’s a sneak peek for mom and dad – it was great to meet you and  your beautiful family!

6 days young… | Newborn Photographer | Rockland, New York

Everytime I do a newborn photo session, I am reminded of what an incredible time of life this is. Cherish these early years…they go by in a flash.  My boys are 6 and 8 and their newborn days seem like a lifetime ago.  But I love that in my job I get to relive the wonder of the newborn stage…

Only 6 days young for his photo session, this beautiful boy was so comfortable being held by his father that we decided to capture the moment.  I love this first one… The beautiful knit with the heart shaped button is by Mamique and if anyone’s in the market for some gorgeous newborn wear, then go straight to their blog after this!

In the meantime, enjoy the sweetness of this little guy…

True Angel… | Newborn Photographer | New York City, New York

Truth is this little boy could not have been any more angelic.  When he was awake, he barely fussed;  once he fell asleep, he was OUT.  This means more fun for me…I can go ahead and put him in a hat or hammock and he just keeps on sleeping comfortably.  (Hey that’s what a hammock’s for, right?)  Anyway, here he is in all his preciousness… the true angel.

Patience… | Newborn Photographer | New York City, NY

I’m not gonna lie…this could’ve been my most challenging newborn to date.  He did NOT want to go to sleep or stay asleep.  Could’ve been because he was past the two week mark; could’ve been he was overtired;  could’ve been he was nervous about his debut photo shoot.  Whatever the reason…you’re totally forgiven, buddy!   Good things come to those who wait…and I’d say our patience paid off.  He is an absolute beauty…   Thanks for hanging in there mom and dad!

Three Cheers for the Red, White & Blue… | Children’s Photographer | Wyckoff, New Jersey

We’re starting to celebrate Memorial Day early with some red, white and blue!   You may remember this little guy from a session I did with him in February when he was just 3 months old.   This time, I had the extreme pleasure of meeting his adorable sister and brother so we could get the three of them together.  And how cute are they???  They were great models, too.  Easy to joke around with and make laugh, although I did have to enlist big sister to get her baby brother to smile for us one last time at the end of the session…I think it worked!
