Circle of Life with Ava!

What an honor and a treat to have photographed the beautiful new daughter of my favorite newlywed couple whose wedding I captured only 2 years ago! Angelic and full of life, Ava was enjoying one of the most gorgeous days of the year. May 17 was a stunner, and I couldn't be happier with this collection of photographs for Brooke & Kevin! :)

Little Logan - Spring Portraits in Central Park

Spring is in full bloom right now, the colors are vivid and the little delicious munchkins will play in the sunshine. Here's little Logan havin' the time of his life in Central Park.

This Is Why I Take Pictures

Nathanel's Amazing Bar Mitzvah

Had a great sunset shoot last night in the park with Nathanel. We were kickin' the soccer ball around, running around with his dog "Wookie" and capturing him looking his best and having fun.

Budding Little Family

I love watching my clients grow their families. I especially like this series with lil' Samuel listening to Mom's belly as he awaits the arrival of his little brother. These are precious moments I enjoy so much when I'm behind the lens.

Central Park Summer Portrait Heaven

A friend of mine once said about a child portrait shoot, "What you get is up to the Photo Gods." I agree with that to a certain degree. For example, some kids are cranky, shy, etc. However, I look at it a different way. If you can engage right away, get them to trust you, feel comfortable with you, then you have 80% of the work done. The remaining 20% is their personality. Well on this particular shoot, I had 100% working in my favor! The gorgeous late afternoon sunlight, beautiful happy children, and my personality to engage them - all came together for this fun series of photographs.

Spring 2011 Cherry Blossom Beauties

Spring 2011 brought us some pretty incredible cherry blossom beauties - here are two of my favs!

Angelic

Here's an image I captured during this past Spring season. I just love how these two sisters tend to their brand new brother. Angelic, indeed...

Spring Bloom Perfection...

Fall 2009 - Rockin Shots!

As I go through my Fall 2009 photographs, I'll be posting my favorites every few days. Here's one of my favorites to kick it off! A.J. Barber is a chip off the block of his Dad, Tiki. Look at the air he's getting as he dives into the leaves with his brother.

Kickin' off Fall Family Photos with a Bang
