Shy Guy… | NY Children’s Photographer | Rockland County

It took all my creative playing powers to win the trust of this endearing little guy.   When friends of mine called me for his portrait session, I thought, “A five year boy?  No problem!  I’m totally in my comfort zone.”  Well, he was very shy at first.  Soooooo, I talked up Yo Gabba Gabba, the Mario Brothers and the Yankees.  I even ran to buy some  Skittles and orange Tic Tacs…and then fed them to my toy dinosaur.  I think that did it!  He must’ve thought, “Hey, she’s alright.”   As we started playing, I got some smiles and laughs and we even went for a little stroll along Congers Lake.  He is very adorable…as you will see.  And I hear afterwards he said I was cute! 🙂

I love this one cause it captures his shyness.  And his beautiful eyelashes.

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!

They certainly do!  This beautiful sister and brother were awesome to work with…not only were they fun but mom put them in stylin’ outfits and took us to some great locations around Bronxville!

Just back from Texas,  I have a new appreciation for the cowboy hat…

Sisters and Sunshine… | NJ Children’s Photographer | Ringwood Manor, New Jersey

Hooray for sun!!  This past Saturday, we got a little taste of what spring should be like…it couldn’t have been a more beautiful day for a photo shoot with these two beautiful sisters.  I love that they each have their own unique look!  They were really fun to work with and so cute with each other, too!  The day was a tad windy, but I have to say in retrospect that I like the effect…

“Three-peat…” | Newborn Photographer | Hudson Valley, New York

This was my third time doing a session with this beautiful family, this time for their new baby girl!  As you can see, she is an angel with big, dark eyes and a full head of hair.  (I love that!)  She prefers to sleep in mama’s arms or when she’s wrapped up tight in a warm blanket…so we obliged….

Here she is bundled up and looking adorable…I love the coloring in this one.  White definitely becomes her…

Girl power… | Newborn Photographer | Wyckoff New Jersey

OK…I have two sons.  I love boys…always have.  Was a bit of a tom-boy growing up, loved playing sports, kept up with my four brothers pretty darn well and am definitely in my comfort zone around boys.  BUT, there was just no way humanly possible not to want a baby girl during this session.  Look at this precious little face.  To top it off, her mom put her in the most adorable pink pettiskirt with matching flower barrette…the clincher!  Actually, she had many awesome girly accessories!

Here she is in all her feminine beauty…

I love her hand in this one…

And I always love catching a smile…
