The Knapp Family, Hudson Valley Family Photographer…

April 12, 2011 – 9:13 pm

 

Meet the Knapp Family.  You might recognize the name from previous posts on my blog.  Momma Knapp is the creator of the famous Knapp Sack.  I spent a sunny Saturday morning with her and her family at a beautiful historic site in Columbia County.  It is a location I have been eying but haven’t been to until now.  I kept my eyes wide open while driving and I am already geeked up to go back to that neck of the woods and photograph some fresh new grounds.  We had a blast with the kiddies touring the grounds and dancing to the Gummy Bear Song.  Thank you Momma Knapp for the wonderful suggestion and thank you Knapp family for so much fun!

No Fear, Hudson Valley Maternity Photographer

April 11, 2011 – 1:53 pm

 

We all have some kind of  fears or phobias in our life.  Mine, any spider, even the itty bitty ones and the dentist.  What is daddy to be’s fear you ask?  Me, the 5 foot 2 chick with the camera. I have a camera, he has a drill.  Ok, only joking. In the end, we agreed that  there should be no fear but we do disagree on our baseball teams (Go SOX).

Anyway, this great couple is weeks away from inviting their first son into the world. I know what you are thinking, where is the belly????   There were many of times I had to tell her to stick that baby out.  She does pregnancy so well and looks great doing it too.  Kind of makes me want to give it one last run……nahhhh.  Three is enough.

Thank you again for a wonderful Sunday afternoon.  I hope you both can make it up to Rhinebeck again for the full tour.  I will see you guys soon during your overnight stay at VBMC :)

Love The Name, Hudson Valley Newborn Photographer

April 7, 2011 – 10:23 pm

 

Why do I say that, because this little sweetie pie shares the same name as one of my precious little, crazy boys.  You might recognize this family, they have been on my blog many of times.   I have been so lucky to watch them grow before my very eyes. This past weekend I got the pleasure of photographing sweet 5 day old baby brother as well as having some fun play time with big bro, who is spitting image of daddy as well as big sister, mommy’s mini me.  As always, such a pleasure to work with this family!

Spring Is Here, Hudson Valley Child Photographer…

April 4, 2011 – 8:53 pm

 

Mother Nature welcomed the first day of April with some snow.  I am sure you are all over snow just as much as I am, so a sunny Saturday was welcomed with open arms.  This was my first shoot of the “Spring” season and this little guy was just awesome.  We did his 2nd birthday photos last year, and how he has changed in a year.  Last year I was lucky to catch a smirk, this year he was all smiles and even did a little mini GQ action for me.  I am still slightly sad that his long hair is gone, but he is still an adorable little dude.
