VIP Holiday Mini Sessions, Hudson Valley Children Photographer…

 

I only do mini sessions once a year and offer them to the general public, but I wanted to do a little something special for this holiday season.  I understand how quickly our kiddies grow by the time holiday cards roll around, so for the first time I offered VIP mini sessions to a select number of clients who participated in full session from January thru August, 2011.  This gave my clients the opportunity to still have super fabulous holiday cards without having to invest in another full session.   I had a great time catching up with my little friends and I look forward to doing this again next year.

Storm King, Orange County Family Photographer…

 

If you ever drive south on 87 from 84, then you must have driven by Storm King Art Center, just off the thruway.  For years I have been dying to visit this place and finally did on a wonderful fall afternoon.  Although the sky was close to black at some points, we made it through the shoot without issue.  The art center is so large, it is impossible to see it all in one afternoon.

These three kiddies were full of energy and may have not stayed in the same place for more than 2.5 seconds, which was only fitting for their ultra fun and  untraditional family photo.  One of my FAVS of all time.  The little boy was the super ham, his twin sister was the quiet and shy one, while big sister was ultra curious and spent a large amount of time looking for cool bugs.   Thank you so much for introducing me to such a wonderful place, I was able to visit again a couple weeks later with my own crew.

 

All Smiles, Orange County Newborn Photographer…

 

I was on the run from one hosptial to another last month, and in my travels I had the joy of meeting this little guy.   When I got in close on him, he cracked a smile.  What a sweet and precious moment!

Baby “J” At Home, Hudson Valley Newborn Photographer…

 

Just days after meeting baby “J” at the hospital, I got the privilege of coming to his home and shooting his newborn pictures.  I am a fan of older homes with character, heck I bought one, but this one had killer hardwoods and a gorgeous wooden staircase, so for me to shoot here was a big SCORE!  He was bright eyed most of our visit but after some work of being super cute, we finally got him to rest his eyes. It must be the bucket.

Welcome Baby “J,” Hudson Valley Newborn Photographer

 

YES, I am still here and finally back on the blog. I will admit, I was worried I wouldn’t remembered my blog login, it has been that long.  I have had a wonderful and overwhelming holiday season.  We were shooting almost 4-5 days a week, I am normally shooing 2, so we are now catching up!

This October I had the joy of meeting this little guy.  He is a sweet little treasure and the son of a former bride and groom.  Can I say how lucky I feel that they continued their journey of growing their family with me.   I had just gotten home from a shoot at Vassar hospital and got the phone call, “He is here!!!”  I’m like, I was just there.  What a baby week!

Baby J, I look forward to watching you grow!
