Twins Christening

Baptisms are such beautiful celebrations... Here are a few shots from A and S's Christenings a few Sundays ago. They looked like little porcelain dolls in their gowns! Congrats to the Z family on a beautiful and meaningful ceremony. Your little ones are already blessed with a mommy and daddy like you. God Bless.

Happy 1st Fathers Day, Ryan! 2011

"A good father makes all the difference in a child's life. He's a pillar of strength, support and discipline. His work is endless and, oftentimes, thankless. But in the end, it shows in the sound, well-adjusted children he raises." 
A very Happy First Father's Day to my husband today - and to all fathers! Ryan is a loving, dedicated daddy and I am proud of him, and I know Liam will be too when he is old enough to understand what it means to be a great dad. xoxo

Welcome Beautiful Baby C!

Welcome beautiful baby "C"- What a sleeping beauty she is! She is a lucky little girl with two great brothers, a sweet sister and great parents all there to teach her the ropes and love her. It was a pleasure spending the afternoon with the "D" Family at their lovely home. Little "C" was perfectly sleepy from the moment I arrived to the moment I left, other than a few feedings in between. She did wonderful. Congrats & also a special thank you to "E" who purchased this session as a baby gift. I can't think of a longer-lasting gift than photos of this special time. Here are a few from the shoot:

Double the Cuteness!

These fresh, flowery portraits were from a double family session I shot back in the Spring. Twin cutie pies "A" and "S" were around 4 months old here. Their mommy and daddy dressed them up so pretty. I love the little sweaters with their dresses! Thank you "S" and "B" for a lovely morning with your precious girls. I'm looking forward to photographing them again soon. Here are some of my favorites:

JC's 1st Birthday!

Happy 1st Birthday to JC! (Liam's second cousin) 


JC's 1st birthday party was dinosaur-themed and filled with lots of other little people, along with family and friends. We traveled to NJ to spend a fun-filled backyard afternoon with our family to celebrate JC's very special milestone birthday. It was a blast! "J" and "S", thank you a wonderful afternoon. We hope JC had a great time! Here are a few shots from the party...

Welcome Gorgeous Newborn Baby "J"!

Oh my! Baby "J" has the most gorgeous crop of thick, surfer-blonde hair on a newborn that I have ever seen. His Mommy told me the nurses at the hospital were fighting over who would care for him and I can easily see why. Hahaa. What a cutie!

Little "J" was very wide-eyed and alert most of the time I was photographing him and he started to close those big baby blues as I was packing up my stuff - figures! He reminds me of how alert my son was as a newborn. This shoot was more of a challenge for me because we dealt with unusually low light, thanks to a dark morning sky full of raindrops. Luckily, J's mommy has a beautiful kitchen skylight that provided some great opportunities for lighting in some shots. 


Congrats "E" & "P" on a second beautiful son. You make seriously beautiful children and "E", it was awesome to see you after all these years since high school! Here are a few shots to view.

check out all that awesomely thick blonde hair!!!
