Sometimes its nice to take family portraits right in your own “backyard”. That’s what this family did when they suggested Brooklyn Heights as their special location. We photographed on their quaint brownstone-filled street and walked a block away to capture the beauty of the Brooklyn Heights Promenade. Brooklyn is the BEST!
I love photographing the same families year after year. It’s like we grow up together….my business matures and so do my clients’ kids. And when they move from Manhattan or Brooklyn to the suburbs - I hope that our relationship continues on. Luckily that is what happened with this awesome family. I have photographed them for almost 10 years. So when they moved from Brooklyn to a charming NJ suburb - they did not hesitate to call me for their next family portrait session. And I did not hesitate to make a visit to their new home. These are my people and I am forever grateful!
When my client reached out to me to book a special portrait session as a gift to herself….I was SO excited. This session was all about love of FASHION with a capital F. And, of course, celebrating a very special birthday - 50 years young. Wow, wow, wow! I love portrait sessions like these!

When a family member moves into a new home, it is a great reason to have a family reunion and to hire a photographer to capture memorable family portraits. I had the pleasure of capturing this family when these sisters bought their first home. And, conveniently, the family’s matriarch and patriarch were visiting from India. I quickly learned that this family is filled with such JOY…truly happy, full of laughter and full of love. What a gathering and what a celebration!
Congratulations to this amazing, smart, sweet and accomplished young woman who graduates college today. Not only is she graduating early but she played fantastic D1 basketball all throughout college. She's awesome. Her mom and her whole community is so proud of her. And it was such a pleasure to photograph her graduating senior portraits this Spring.
I always love photographing in my hometown of DC. And to photograph in the famous Bishop’s Garden at the National Cathedral - it is always memorable. And with this fantastic family, the experience was a total home run! Sweetness, sister love, fun and memories made. You can’t ask for anything better!
I love when I have quick and authentic connections with my clients. That’s what happened when I met this adorable boy upon first meeting. This was his first ever professional photo session - and he did FANTASTIC! He loved all the attention from me and all the love, cuddles and tickles he received from his parents throughout our time together. And, as an end result, his parents have fantastic portraits to cherish for a lifetime.
When I lived in Washington, DC in the late 2000s, I discovered and learned to adore Huntley Meadows Park located in Alexandria, VA. When this Northern Virginia family told me that they wanted to meet me there for their family session, I jumped at the chance. It has boardwalks, meadows, lush greenery and low-key hiking trails. And with this crew, we had an absolute blast!
It’s so nice to connect with a family and grow along with them. I have been photographing these two precious boys since they were born. Every year, our photography session captures their newest stage in their childhood. Years from now, their parents will have so many beautiful visual memories of these special time in their lives.
Even if a family moves out of their NYC neighborhood….doesn’t mean they need to find a new family photographer. I have photographed this fun family for every Fall for YEARS and just over last summer, they decided to make the jump and move to an adorable river town in Westchester. It was so much fun to travel up to them and to photograph all their happiness in their new version of family life. Can’t wait to what next year brings!
